in Tomcat 4.1.x you can put XML files containing context information into your webapps directory and TC adds them as contexts. this is how the admin and manager apps are added. - Andrew

The overlap centres on server.xml The infrastructure guys need to put host specific information into server.xml The development guys are dependent on a context definition and resources defined within it. My question is therefore ... is it possible to "include" a snippet for the context that the development team can maintain into the infrastructure maintain server.xml file. Cheers Rob Horn
