Struts Taglibs hotwo?

I have some .jsp files say in \appname\src\com\company\jsp\MyLogin.jsp

These files use taglibs (struts in this case). The struts .tld files are in \tomcatx.x\webapps\appname\web-inf\struts-logic.tld

My build process moves the .jsp files to the appropriate directory under tomcat. If I edit the files under the tomcat directory they find the taglibs fine.

The problem is that it can not find the taglibs when I try to edit the src form \appname\src\com\comapany\jsp directory. I tried adding an external resource but that did not seem to work. My questions are

1. How do I make it find my taglibs
2. What exactly is "external resources" for?
