Is it possible to detect the version of Tomcat that the user has in Ant? I have the following Ant task:

<!-- =================================================================== -->
<!-- Setup Tomcat 4.1 -->
<!-- =================================================================== -->
<target name="setup-tomcat" if="tomcat.home"
description="copies jdbc driver and context.xml to tomcat">
<echo level="info">Copying database JDBC Driver to ${tomcat.home}/common/lib</echo>
<copy todir="${tomcat.home}/common/lib" file="${database.jar}"/>

<echo level="info">Copying ${webapp.name}.xml to ${tomcat.home}/webapps</echo>
<copy tofile="${tomcat.home}/webapps/${webapp.name}.xml"
file="metadata/web/tomcat-context.xml" />

</target>

Copying the tomcat-context.xml file to $CATALINA_HOME/webapps/${webapp.name}.xml will only work on Tomcat 4.1.x. For Tomcat 5.0.x, it needs to go in $CATALINA_HOME/conf/Catalina/localhost/. I'd like to auto-detect Tomcat 5 and deploy to the appropriate place. Is there a class I can check for or something?

Thanks,

Matt
