There is "Eclipse for Java EE developers" that includes support for Tomcat (and other web servers) thanks to Web Tools project. http://www.eclipse.org/projects/project.php?id=webtools > The question is how can i activate this servlet without eclipse: > Should i create executable jar and run it on tomcat? or can i create > executable jar that activates my tomcat automatically? Read the Servlet specification (see links on the Specifications page in Tomcat Wiki). You would have to pack your application as war file and put it into webapps folder of Tomcat. Tomcat will notice it and "autodeploy" (unpack) automatically. It is possible to deploy a web application without packing, but that would be more complicated.
