If you place your .properties file at the root of your WAR classpath ie (under WEB-INF\classes) then your class files can reference it relative to their position in the package directory structure.
i.e.
WEB-INF
+---classes
+------your.properties
+------com
+---yourcompany
+---------YourClass.class
YourClass.class can load your.properties by refering to it as residing at
"..\..\your.properties"
Otherwise, if the properties file is used by only one class, you should be able to place it in the same package directory as that class and reference it as "your.properties".
If your context is marked as reloadable, then changes to the properties file at runtime will cause the context's classes to be reloaded.

Eeeh? I know that my WAR file must be under webapps, what I need is some way
to have my own property file somewhere, and be able to at runtime to guess
where this property file is.

You must add a Logger élément in serveur.xml in the context of your

Usually, war file must be in webapps under TOMCAT.
