I'm currently using TC 4.1.12. I've been taking advantage of the fact that I can drop an XML file into the tomcat/webapps directory and have this recognized as a context. However I've just started using the manager app. It appears that when I do anything 'serious' with the manager it includes all the contexts defined inside tomcat/webapps and merges their details into tomcat/conf/server.xml. This means that if I change a context in the webapps directory those changes do not get picked up either by tomcat, or by the manager if I do a stop/start, a restart or an undeploy/deploy.
I'm assuming this behaviour is a legacy of the fact that adding contexts to the 'webapps' directory is a fairly recent change to TC. I also remember seeing some discussion of the behaviour of the manager app here a little while ago. Are there any plans to change the manager so that changes to contexts declared in the webapps directory get merged back into server.xml?
