Various operating system allow hooks to do be notified when items in the filesystem change. But since we're using java - thats not the case here

Tomcat does have the capability of specifying one or more
<WatchedResource> elements inside a <Context> declaration, and reacting
to changes of the specified file system item.  However, that reaction is
to reload the app, which may be a bit more drastic than the OP wanted.
Definitely an over-reaction!!
