How do you intend to start Tomcat on the same JVM as your bootstrap application? Bypass ALL of tomcat facilities and scripts and take direct control, instantiating Tomcat classes by name from its libraries!! Embedded through API Interfaces! Wow! What is the advantage gained?
I would leave tomcat stricly alone, configure its server and web configuration files,; start, stop and control through Runtime commands from the bootstrap application. Communicate through sockets.
