i had a look at those already and tried out different combinations. yet
there is no way (obvious to me) to prevent tomcat from starting war
files. i could use the deployOnStartup attribute but then i would
prevent tomcat from starting apps that are not packed in a war, too. i
had to start them all manually which is impossible.

i guess it would be easiest to use the deployXML flag (since this set to
false for my concerns) in the deployWar() method as well.
