You're on your own for the build.xml; setting that up depends entirely on the 
organization of your source files.

Correct.  Unless you are supporting multiple web sites, the existing <Host> 
will do; you don't have to create another one, so you shouldn't have to add 
anything to server.xml.  You appear to have decided to place your own examples 
in the D:\examplestomcat directory, so that's what your docBase attribute will 
point to.  The only missing piece of information is the URL name used to access 
your webapp; for brevity, we'll use the name tomas, but you're of course free 
to use anything you want.

1) no changes are needed to server.xml

2) create the file C:\tomcat6.0\conf\Catalina\localhost\tomas.xml

3) the contents of the above file are just:
<Context docBase="D:/examplestomcat" />

4) under D:\examplestomcat, you should have:
WEB-INF\web.xml - contains your servlet mappings
WEB-INF\lib - contains jar files (if any) for your webapp
WEB-INF\classes - contains individual class files (if any) for your webapp
index.html - the home page of your webapp.

You would access the above via the URL http://127.0.0.1:8080/tomas, assuming 
your browser is on the same machine that Tomcat is running on and you're using 
the default server.xml.

You can, of course, vary #4 considerably to meet your needs, as long as you 
stick with the structure required by the servlet spec.
