Re: Problems with "No code in that line at the class" on JSP/Tomcat/XP

Hello Grant,

Have you seen the brief tips on the following page?

    http://www.bluemarsh.com/java/jswat/docs/howto-jsp.html

However, I don't see anything on that page that will help with the "no 
code" error message. That generally means the .class file is missing the 
line number table. This is generated by javac when the debug flag (-g) 
is included. I'm not very familiar with Tomcat, but is there a setting 
to control whether the JSP's generated servlet code is compiled with the 
debug flags?
