I'm trying to set up a custom realm in context.xml and placing it in META-INF, according to
http://tomcat.apache.org/tomcat-5.5-doc/config/context.html

because I don't want to restart Tomcat if I need to modify the Context element or my custom realm.

But according to
http://tomcat.apache.org/tomcat-5.5-doc/realm-howto.html
the custom realm has to be in $CATALINA_HOME/server/lib and database drivers have to be in $CATALINA_HOME/server/lib or $CATALINA_HOME/common/lib and Step 5 under "Quick Start" seems to always be "Restart Tomcat".

Is it possible to place the realm and the database driver somewhere under webapps/appname and still have Tomcat find it? I really want to avoid having to restart Tomcat. If so, where should these be located?

Thanks in advance.
