Will war archives auto-update

I am curious if war archives will auto-update when I place them in the
Tomcat directory or if I need to restart Tomcat to activate them.

You need to delete the expanded webapp directory and then restart tomcat to
get it to re-expand the new war file.  This is true with 3.x at least, I'm
not sure about 4.0
