tomcat restart?

Is it possible to write a servlet that can restart Tomcat 5.5?

I am loading native library code and this has to be in the shared/lib 
area for the webapp to be restartable (if it's in the webapp/WEB-INF/lib 
then restarting the webapp fails). However, I want to be able to install 
a new version of my code, then restart Tomcat and then my webapp will 
pick up the new version.
