Manually, the Tomcat Manager web app allows me to easily restart a web app. So, assuming I have the tomcat manager username and password, I can make a program invoke the same URL that probably would cause the web app to reload, using something like:

https://myhost.com/manager/html/reload?path=/THISONE

Is there a programmatic way to do this directly instead to make it easier to detect any errors or the like? I basically would like a web app to be able to reload itself, without stopping Tomcat itself, such as after an automated download that installed some new versions of JARs and JSPs for the web app (allowing the web app to download upgrades, install them, then restart the web app so it's put into use).

Thanks,
David
