Yes, but the question is, what constitutes a webapp being deleted?
And the answer, I think, depends on how you have Tomcat configured
(e.g., in terms of auto-deployment of webapps).  I'd say that if
you're using a context configuration file, that's part of the webapp.
And if you haven't deleted it, you haven't really deleted the webapp.

Hmmm -- you had a <Context> element for this webapp in server.xml
*and* a separate context configuration file?  That's redundant,
because they serve the same purpose.  I'm not sure what would happen
in that case -- were you per chance seeing your webapp starting up
twice?

Which means there has to be some element inside Tomcat's configuration
(either in server.xml or a separate context configuration file) that
lets Tomcat know about it.  And until you delete that element, you
haven't deleted the webapp.

That's my take on it, at least :-).
