I think you can use the Ivan Ivanov's macrodef[1] to start / stop tomcat
from your ant script 

Also, Mani G. Iyer sent a very good piece of information[2] to perform tasks
in Tomcat from Ant

Ahh! The beauty of the archives.... ;)

I think the "executable" should be "cmd.exe" and pass the batch file as
a nested argument.  At least that's how we use it.

Best,

Subject: Launching Tomcat from Ant.

Hi all,

I am having a problem launching tomcat from ant.
It works fine when I run ant in a dos shell
but not when I run ant from a cygwin shell.

        <exec os="Windows 95, Windows 98, Windows Me, Windows NT,
Windows
XP, Windows CE"
              executable="${tomcat.dir}/bin/catalina.bat" spawn="true"
              dir="${tomcat.dir}">
            <arg line='jpda start'/>
        </exec>
        <echo message="Waiting for Tomcat to start..."/>
        <waitfor maxwait="30" maxwaitunit="second"
                 timeoutproperty="tomcat.failed">
            <http url="${tomcat.manager.url}"/>
        </waitfor>
        <fail if="tomcat.failed"/>

Any suggestions welcome.

Donald.
