Just moved from Tomcat 6 to Tomcat 7 and noticed that when you deploy a webapp called widget the META-INF/context.xml no longer get copied to conf/Catalina/localhost/widget.xml.
What Im unclear about is whether it needs to be, will the settings in context.xml be used if left in META-INF or do they only have effect if moved to conf/Catalina/localhost/widget.xml
Im using a vanilla tomcat 7 installation
