Change properties of tomcat on-the-fly

When we make some changes to .properties file in tomcat, the server should be restarted.

The question is why ?

What should I do if I want to make on-the-fly changes to tomcat server's properties ( ie without restarting tomcat server ) ?

If you set the reloadable attribute of Tomcat's Context element to false, the server will not restart when it finds configuration changes while running.

Yet this applies only to /WEB-INF/classes and /WEB-INF/lib, so it would be helpful if you specified which properties file you want to change, as suggested in the comments.
