Repeat: Can Tomcat be used with non-webapps?

[Chris Collins <Ch...@ThatOne.com>]

Hi, guys,
I asked this question a few days ago and received no response. I don't
want to be a nuisance, but a simple 'yes' or 'no' answer would be
greatly appreciated, and I am desperate enough to ask this question one
last time:

I am trying to use tomcat as a container for my program which is not a
web-application. I can't see a way of specifying the context to be used,
as it is automatically selected by web-apps based on their name.  I
tried configuring the default context for the datasource that my
application uses, but the application was still unable to connect to the
datasource. Is it possible to use tomcat with a program which is not a
web-application?

Thank you very much for your time,
Christopher

Maybe I'm just being really dense, but why might you want to do this?  
Wouldn't it make more sense to use one of the other 
(non-webapp-specific) containers?
