Thanks Yaov, the Ant filter tokens was exactly what I needed.

Hi,
Nope, no variable parsing in web.xml.
You can use ant filter tokens to set the appropriate value when copying
web.xml to its destination diretory.

Subject: java variables in mywebapp.xml
Hello.
I put a file: mywebapp.xml into tomcat/webapps/. This file makes
Tomcat
reference my webapp in a different directory. I tried to use a
variable
in the path but Tomcat hated that.
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<Context
path="/mywebapp"
docBase="${user.home}/projects/mywebapp"
debug="0"
privileged="false">
<Logger
className="org.apache.catalina.logger.FileLogger"
prefix="localhost_mywebapp_log."
suffix=".txt"
timestamp="true"/>
</Context>
But ${user.home} renders exactly as written. It doesn't change to
/home/charvey/.
Is there any way to make something like this happen? This is a team
project
so when someone else checks it out of CVS I would like it to work on
the
user
directory instead of having someone to change it. If its not possible,
well,
then I'll figure something else out.
Thanks a lot.
Charlie
