Getting the actual jsp line number from a stack trace line number?

Question

Here is the stacktrace:

... org.apache.jsp.showcustomer_jsp._jspService(showcustomer_jsp.java:128) org.apache.jasper.runtime.HttpJspBase.service(Unknown Source) 

This is what I do:

1. Get the line number from the stacktrace, in this case 128.
2. Find the showcustomer_jsp.java file (and it isn't exactly obvious to look in /var/run/tomcat-6/Catalina/localhost/_/org/apache/jsp).
3. Open it and go to line 128.
4. Now, search the .jsp file for the whatever you found on line 128 in the _jsp.java file.
5. Boom! You're done!

Please, is there a simpler way to do this?

Answer 1

I have found this page on Eclipse WTP FAQ which explain how to configure Eclipse so that you can go to the generated java code clicking on the stacktrace.
