Okay, this is a little more inane than most of the "I want to use
Eclipse to develop JSP...." posts.
I'm not asking for keyword completion or syntax highlighting or
debugging. All I want is to be able to configure Eclipse so that I can
point it at one of my webapp directories and have it put the JSP's in
that directory and put compiled *classes* down in ./WEB-INF/classes.
What's an easy way to do this?

I do not use Eclipse (so perhaps there is a special *Eclipse* alternative)
but I thought the standard/common way of deploying WAR files is using ANT??

In Eclipse 2.1 Right click the project name in the package explorer | properties
or Project | Properties
Click Java Build Path
Now I went right to this dialog and took a second to notice the one line
field at the *bottom* for 'Default output folder'
which is different than the big right-hand side when you click the
sourse tab -- 'Source Folders on Build Path', thus you can have
directories that contain source and are part of the project and
another directory in which to place all the classes.
FWIW, that is one thing the sysdeo tomcat plugin does when specify a tomcat
project. It sets this up properly, then does a trick in the tomcat which points
back to your development directories, so you don't even have to
move any files to get tomcat to see them. It works for me.

Get LomBoz (http://www.objectlearn.com/) for JSP syntax highlighting -
as well as loads of cool J2EE stuff. To add a directory on the file
system to your project do the following:
Right click in the navigator -> Click New -> A Dialog will appear ->
Click Advanced -> Tick link to folder in the File System -> Select your
JSP directory with the browse button.
Note that I have it set up for my project to enable files to be built to
the correct directories on the disk while source stays as part of the
project, but I'm really not at all sure how I did it!
Good Luck.
