Gidday Jonathan, fancy meeting you here :)
There are a couple of ways of doing this without resorting to mucking
around with tomcat, but involves editing the build.xml control file.
1. rebuild app and copy over to webapps the entire app. Edit compile
destination to point to classes folder in webapps/newapp/WEB-INF.
Every subsequent compile will do the obvious :)
Drawback with this option is you need to remember to copy over other
resources as they are added/edited.
2. Define a 'deploy' target in the build file which copies everything
over to the webapps folder auto-magically (if you make deploy the
default target). This has been my preferred MO in past apps (and the
one I am using on IPN :) just haven't checked it in yet :(
If you're real keen, you could CnP/edit the following (from a work
project; never get to read my mail at home any more :(
