I think you can reload each individual webapp using the tomcat manager page. http://<server-address>/manager/html Set up your users in the /<tomcat-home>/conf/tomcat-users.xml file.
You can also set Tomcat to auto-reload updated classes by modifying the host section(s) of /<tomcat-home>/conf/server.xml file - I don't recall the exact place to put it, but i think the param is called 'reloadable=yes' Hope that helps.
