dynamically built server.xml

[PERRIN GOURON Olivier]

Hello,
I'm trying tomcat4.1 to run my application, and I need to define contexts
dynamically. I know this is done in server.xml, but the point is that my
/conf directory, where server.xml remains is read-only...  So, I think of 2
possibilities:
+tell tomcat not to look in /conf dir, but in another one I could
write in
+Inside server.xml, reference external documents that would be
replaced when tomcat reads server.xml Are these two solutions possible with
tomcat - and how ?
any third idea?

thanks
Olivier

I read the docs, but couldn't find any solution but those I mentioned
My problem is that I run Tomcat from a CD-ROM...
I actually need to use virtual directories, which I want to define each
time I run Tomcat (virtual directory : I mean directories that can be
accessed with http://localhost:8080/myVirtualDir but that are not truly on
the appBase directory). 
I build these directories defining contexts in server.xml (the only way I
found to do that)
In the same way, I want to define the Host workDir dynamically...

Check the docs, specifically the Automatic Application Deployment section:
