however,if you delete the war, the spp will be undeployed

Doesn't look like it

and is there a way to get the old behavior with
tomcat 6.0?
not unless you patch the source code.

Also I think that in Tomcat 5, it was *necessary* to delete the war file to be
able to edit the web.xml ofthe deployed application, otherwise it was
overwritten from the war file at least at the next server start. What will Tomcat 6 do on startup in this case (a .war file *and* an expanded directory of the same webapp exist, with a newer web.xml in the expanded directory?
I believe it will use the one in the expanded directory.
