You are right, this is not particularloy easy to find.
Several mentions to the use of "#" in paths are made in this section of the on-line
documentation.
http://tomcat.apache.org/tomcat-7.0-doc/config/host.html#Automatic%20Application%20Deployment
I do not really understand it very well myself, but as a starter to dig further
:
If you use "foo#bar.war" a .war file name, and you drop this .war file in Tomcat's webapps
directory, it will be deployed at the path (tomcat_dir)/webapps/foo/bar/.
So it's a "trick" when you actually want to deploy an application that way, because of
course you cannot name your war file "foo/bar.war".
And you can also not drop a "bar.war" file in the directory (tomcat_dir)/webapps/foo/,
because it would never get deployed.
I know that this is a very limited way to describe this feature, but maybe someone else
here will point you to further info of interest.
