A few people have mentioned JavaDocs, which is a good, standard solution. However, an interesting, comment-based tool is emerging in the Java world called XDoclet.

XDoclet generates the web.xml and jrun-web.xml files using the settings in the WebDoclet task defined in the XDoclet configuration file. It uses your comments in servlets to create servlet definitions, filters, mappings, and other settings. In addition, you can merge files into the deployment descriptors that define session persistence settings and virtual mappings.

For more information, see the XDoclet website at http://sourceforge.net/projects/xdoclet/
