The Tomcat 4.1 administration tool seems to only know how to configure global properties, under <GlobalNamingResource>, in server.xml. But they can not be read directly from the JNDI tree, which is bad because it means that when ever I add properties, I also need to edit the server.xml file by hand; the point of having an administration tool is therefore eluding me since just copy-pasting XML is easier than first defining the properties through the admin tool and then copy-pasting the XML under the correct context. Somebody in java.sun.com noted that you could use ResourceLink-elements to point to those global definitions, but that's not a solution in my book since you still need to write those definitions, and I need separate values for each server instance. It would require separate JNDI names for each server instance though; not sure how to handle this anyway, except maybe with namespaces or something...
My question is, can I add some element or general flags that would: A) allow global properties to be filtered down to each individual server, over-riding server-specific settings, or B) make it possible to edit individual server instance properties through the admin tool, rather than global ones. As a follow-up question, in case answer is no, are there any plans to add such functionality? I would very much like to be able to use the tool some day.
