Where are the intermediate java files generated when Weblogic 10 compiles JSPs?

I am porting our webapp from Tomcat 6 to Weblogic 10, and I am trying to figure out how to view the java files generated by Weblogic when the JSP files are compiled.  After Googling around I found some documentation for setting 'keepgenerated=true' by editing weblogic.xml as follows:

<jsp-descriptor>
    <precompile>false</precompile>
    <precompile-continue>false</precompile-continue>
    <keepgenerated>true</keepgenerated>
    <verbose>true</verbose>
    <working-dir>c:/temp/bea</working-dir>
  </jsp-descriptor>

The file I edited was C:\bea\wlserver_10.0\server\lib\consoleapp\webapp\WEB-INF\weblogic.xml.

However,when I then bring up Weblogic the class files are still being compiled to its internal work directory (instead of c:\temp\bea), and no JSP java files are being preserved.  I have confirmed that I am editing the correct weblogic.xml because when I deliberately introduce a syntax error in it I get an error on startup.  However, I don't understand why 'working-dir' and 'keepgenerated' are not working.  I am running the default 'sample' instance under Weblogic 10; here is the command I use to start it:

C:\bea\wlserver_10.0\samples\domains\wl_server\startWebLogic.cmd

So, in a nutshell, what file and setting do I need to edit in order for Weblogic to preserve the java files?  It is very difficult to debug stack traces in JSPs without those files.

Any help would be appreciated!
