(it changed between 7.0.x and 8.0.x) You are looking for "resources"[1] (not to be confused with "resources"[2] or "JNDI resources"[3]). You want to use <PreResources> or <PostResources> inside <Resources> inside your <Context> element in META-INF/context.xml. In general, I'd recommend using <PostResources> for non-code files, because you don't want a user to be able to upload a file which then takes precedence over a file or library that comes with your application . Note that resources are *cached by default*, so if you have dynamic changes to the filesystem (e.g. file-uploads, separate processed making changes to the fs, etc.) then you'll want to disable that.
