I have noticed that 'touch' on the web.xml does not redeploy the web 
application due to JBoss rewriting the web.xml file.

web.xml (original):

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="ISO-8859-1"?>

<web-app version="2.4"
    xmlns="http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/j2ee";
    xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance";
    xsi:schemaLocation="http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/j2ee web-app_2_4.xsd">

    <!-- The Welcome File List -->
    <welcome-file-list>
        <welcome-file>index.jsp</welcome-file>
    </welcome-file-list>

                <!-- Servlets -->
    
        <servlet-name>TestWebService</servlet-name>
        <servlet-class>com.company.department.ws.TestWebService</servlet-class>
    
    
                <!-- Servlet Mappings -->
    <servlet-mapping>
        <servlet-name>TestWebService</servlet-name>
        <url-pattern>/webservice/TestWebService</url-pattern>
    </servlet-mapping>

</web-app> 

When JBoss is restarted the web.xml is rewritten to the below:

<web-app version='2.4' xmlns='http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/j2ee' 
xmlns:xsi='http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance' 
xsi:schemaLocation='http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/j2ee web-app_2_4.xsd'>
 <!-- The Welcome File List -->
 <welcome-file-list>
  <welcome-file>index.jsp</welcome-file>
 </welcome-file-list>
 <!-- Servlets -->
 
  <servlet-name>TestWebService</servlet-name>
  
<servlet-class>org.jboss.ws.integration.jboss42.JBossServiceEndpointServlet</servlet-class>
  <init-param>
   <param-name>ServiceEndpointImpl</param-name>
   <param-value>com.company.department.ws.TestWebService</param-value>
  </init-param>
 
 
 <!-- Servlet Mappings -->
 <servlet-mapping>
  <servlet-name>TestWebService</servlet-name>
  <url-pattern>/webservice/TestWebService</url-pattern>
 </servlet-mapping>
</web-app>   

My question is why does JBoss rewrite the web.xml.  If it must rewrite the 
web.xml shouldn't it do this and leave in memory (JVM) and not overwrite the 
original web.xml?  Because of this I have to have an original web.xml written 
as another file (like web.xml.org) and have an ant task to copy the original 
web.xml (web.xml.org) to web.xml.  It's just bothersome.  Is there a quicker 
way to redeploy an exploded war that I do not know?
