Go to $TOMCAT_HOME/bin and create the file startup-jrebel.sh with the following contents:


#!/bin/bash
JREBEL_BOOTSTRAP=`dirname $0`/jrebel-bootstrap.jar
java -Drebel.bootstrap=$JREBEL_BOOTSTRAP -jar $AGENT_PATH_UNIX
export JAVA_OPTS="-noverify -Xbootclasspath/p:$JREBEL_BOOTSTRAP:$AGENT_PATH_UNIX $JAVA_OPTS"
`dirname $0`/startup.sh $@

You can also create a catalina-jrebel.sh with the following content:


#!/bin/bash
JREBEL_BOOTSTRAP=`dirname $0`/jrebel-bootstrap.jar
java -Drebel.bootstrap=$JREBEL_BOOTSTRAP -jar $AGENT_PATH_UNIX
export JAVA_OPTS="-noverify -Xbootclasspath/p:$JREBEL_BOOTSTRAP:$AGENT_PATH_UNIX $JAVA_OPTS"
`dirname $0`/catalina.sh $@

Make them executable and use those scripts instead of startup.sh and catalina.sh if you want to run Tomcat with JRebel.
