You don't need any generated config files for mod_webapp -- that's part of
the real beauty of it :-).

When you declare a particular web application in httpd.conf, like this:

  WebAppDeploy   examples  warpConnection  /examples/

then Apache configures itself from the web application's settings in
web.xml, including servlet mappings, filters, container managed security,
and everything else.  No muss, no fuss.
