Guys, while we recognize that these specific examples may be annoying, the
Tomcat dev team has more or less decided to not do further refactoring or
enhancement on the Tomcat 5.x auto-deployment mechanism. The plethora of
options available in automatic application deployment were intended to make life
easier, but resulted in a lot of complicated and somewhat fragile code. Now
that Tomcat 5.x is in maintenance mode, serious changes to this code are -1ed on
the grounds that they're as likely to break some people's deployment setups as
they are to help others, such as yourselves.
Tomcat 6 is a different story. It's got improved deployment code, simpler
deployment code, and since it's the currently active development branch,
enhancement requests like yours are more likely to get done. Please try Tomcat
6 (6.0.10 is the latest stable release at this time), and let us know what you
think via the mailing list(s).
