Here's a little snippet of our ant script:

 <target name="jspc.init">
 <mkdir dir="\${build.web.jsp}" />
 </target>

 <target name="jspc" depends="jspc.init">
 <jasper2 validateXml="false"
 uriroot="\${web}"
 webXmlFragment="\${build.web}/web-gen.xml"
 outputDir="\${build.web.jsp}" />

 <javac srcdir="\${build.web.jsp}"
 destdir="\${build.web.class}"
 classpathref="build.classpath"
 debug="true"/>

 <loadfile property="jsp.servlets.text" srcFile="\${build.web}/web-gen.xml"/>

 <replace file="\${build.web}/web.xml">
 <replacefilter token="&lt;!-- JSPC Insertion Point --&gt;" value="\${jsp.servlets.text}"/>
 </replace>
 </target>

 <target name="buildwar.init">
 <mkdir dir="\${build.web.class}" />
 <copy file="\${web}/WEB-INF/web.xml" todir="\${build.web}"/>
 </target>

 <target name="buildwar" depends="buildwar.init,jspc">
 <war destfile="\${output}/\${output.warfile}" webxml="\${build.web}/web.xml" manifest="\${manifest}">
 <fileset dir="\${web}" excludes="**/web.xml"/>
 <classes dir="\${build.web.class}" includes="**/*.class"/>
 </war>
 </target>
