Re: [wtp-dev] Experimental Tomcat 5.5 plugin

Right, that's the idea. There is an enhancement request 
https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=103888 already to provide 
API to get this kind of information. Beware that the module traversal 
implementation included with the experimental Tomcat is rather naive and 
I am going to replace it with more mature implementation when I have time.
