I don't think I looked at it for much longer. You don't want that Digester instance - the Tomcat class doesn't parse server.xml. You want the equivalent for the Context which is set in ContextConfig. (or is this for web.xml?) Take a look at the difference between addWebApp and addContext. It sounds like you are using addWebApp. In which case maybe a property source setter on ContextConfig that is then injected into that Digester instance? > I guess I should create an enhancement BZ for this? I think so. There are a few different digester instances. It would be good to have a solution that handled all likely variations.
