Question

        JSPConfiguration<         


        

Answer 1

this code should work:

    JspConfigDescriptor j = new JspConfigDescriptor()
    {

        @Override
        public Collection<TaglibDescriptor> getTaglibs()
        {
            // TODO Auto-generated method stub
            return null;
        }

        @Override
        public Collection<JspPropertyGroupDescriptor> getJspPropertyGroups()
        {
            Collection<JspPropertyGroupDescriptor> c = new ArrayList<JspPropertyGroupDescriptor>();
            JspPropertyGroupDescriptorImpl pgDescriptor = new JspPropertyGroupDescriptorImpl();
            pgDescriptor.setIsXml(Boolean.TRUE.toString());
            pgDescriptor.getUrlPattern().add("/js/generated/*");
            pgDescriptor.setElIgnored(Boolean.FALSE.toString());
            pgDescriptor.setPageEncoding("UTF-8");
            c.add(pgDescriptor);
            return null;
        }
    };
    servletContext.setJspConfigDescriptor(j);

But last statement will be available since Tomcat 8

Answer 2

You have access to it with

servletContext.getJspConfigDescriptor().getJspPropertyGroups();

returning a Collection<JspPropertyGroupDescriptor> which has an add(JspPropertyGroupDescriptor) method. JspPropertyGroupDescriptor is an interface which you have to implement. You're probably better off having a partial web.xml and partial java configuration.
