           Summary: Embedded fails to configure hosts with HostConfig
           Product: Tomcat 6
           Version: 6.0.18
          Platform: PC
        OS/Version: Windows XP
            Status: NEW
          Severity: minor
          Priority: P2
         Component: Catalina
        AssignedTo: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
        ReportedBy: [EMAIL PROTECTED]


I admit that I am new to Tomcat, but the following seems like a bug. 

When attempting to launch Tomcat embedded, hosts (specifically StandardHosts)
created are not configured with a HostConfig. Consequently, all deployment
flags for WAR deployment like autoDeploy and deployOnStartup are ignored. I
recommend adding the following to the implementation of createHost(..) in the
Embedded class:

    public Host createHost(String name, String appBase) {

        ... // logging code

        StandardHost host = new StandardHost();

        host.setAppBase(appBase);
        host.setName(name);

       +// Host config should listen for lifecycle changes in host (notably the
start event)
       +HostConfig deployer = new HostConfig();
       +host.addLifecycleListener(deployer);  

        return (host);
    }

The implementation of createContext() is similarly designed to use the
ContextConfig, so I assume this was omitted on accident. Otherwise, those
wanting the auto deployment capabilities when running embedded must override
the createHost() method or create a HostConfig listener manually. This change
seems well in line with the API documentation, which details that this function
should "Create, configure, and return a Host...".

If however, this was purposefully omitted, please let me know why.

Thanks,
Mike Huffman
