Hello,

I cannot make tomcat reload the context when web.xml file changes. I
tried creating a simple project:

D:\work\test\----- META-INF
            |     |
            |     --- context.xml
            |
            ----- WEB-INF
                  |
                  --- web.xml

and configured a context in tomcat:

D:\tomcat-5.5.9\conf\Catalina\localhost\test.xml
<Context path="/test" reloadable="true" docBase="d:\work\test"
workDir="d:\work\test" />

d:\work\test\META-INF\context.xml
<Context path="">
 <!-- Default set of monitored resources -->
 <WatchedResource>WEB-INF/web.xml</WatchedResource>
 <WatchedResource>META-INF/context.xml</WatchedResource>
</Context>

Now, when I change web.xml for my project, no context reload is
triggered. What is interesting to note is that when I move my project
under the webapps directory of tomcat and no longer use test.xml file,
the context is successfully reloaded when I change web.xml.

What am I doing wrong? How can I force tomcat reload an application
context outside of the webapps directory?
