Generating Autoindex in Tomcat

[Assaf Flatto <as...@atelis.net>]

Hello

I am running tomcat 5.5.17 and i want to generate an auto index for the 
applications located on my server so i can pick which one i want to work 
with.

basically what i want is like this , in directory foo i have 3 
applications , i want the tomcat to present a page listing the 
"applications" ( file names) and when i add or remove an application it 
will know this automatically ( similar to the auto index in apache.)

Is there a directive for that in Tomcat ?

If you're referring to true webapps (as defined by the servlet spec),
Tomcat's built-in manager app will do this for you.  If you're talking
about arbitrary files that are just part of some webapp, you'll need to
write a simple monitoring servlet to watch for changes (someone has
probably already done this, of course).
