Laurent I don't know if tomcat standalone can do this, however, I would deploy tomcat with Jboss and use jboss deployer where you can choose between different scheme. According to jboss doc implicit behvior is defined by: Urlcomparator policy Russian doll policy
Explicit behavior is defined by Explicitly stating MBean dependencies in MBean definitions In your case you could use the implicit. Rules prefixdeploymentsorter. It will be then: 01-File.war, 02-File.war, etc.. Hope this helps.
