To deploy a web application to Tomcat, just copy the war file to /tomcat/webapps/
Once Tomcat starts up, it will automatically scan this folder, and generates a sub directory under this folder according to the .war file. You can use
tail -f /tomcat/logs/catalina.out
to check Tomcat's reaction to your deploy.
One thing is you don't have to keep on shutdown and start tomcat after your deploy. Tomcat keeps on scan webapps folder after it starts.

The other way is using Maven-Tomcat plugin, which is provided by 3rd party--codeczar.

property(in XML file) -------- setProperty(), getProperty() (Methods in Java Bean)
attributes name seems unrelated to property.
