An application server has no legitimate reason to change the code it's executing. Expanding a WAR file is an exception, because it cannot handle this format directly. Tomcat 4.0 has an option that lets it read the WAR file directly, without expanding it.[1] And even without that option, an administrator could do the expansion when installing the application. You still need a writeable directory to store compiled JSPs, but even this is not a requirement: there are tools that can precompile JSPs for you.
