Tomcat Maven Plugin - Context Goals

Context Goals

The plugin provides goals to perform various tasks upon your project's context once deployed within Tomcat:

These are described in more detail below.

The goals required to redeploy a WAR project depend upon how it was deployed:

To redeploy a WAR project deployed by tomcat:deploy you can type:
```
mvn package tomcat:redeploy
```
To redeploy a WAR project deployed by tomcat:exploded you can type:
```
mvn war:exploded tomcat:redeploy
```
To redeploy a WAR project deployed by tomcat:inplace you can type:
```
mvn war:inplace tomcat:redeploy
```
To redeploy a context.xml file deployed by tomcat:deploy you can type:
```
mvn tomcat:redeploy
```
Note: Depending on the docBase specified in the context.xml you may also need to call war:exploded or war:inplace as above.
