Does Tomcat make use of webdefault.xml?

I'm working on a project that originally used Jetty for its webapps. As the project progressed, it eventually switched to Tomcat. These webapps all contain webdefault.xml files, which based on googling appear to be heavily associated with Jetty and rarely talked about in Tomcat contexts, suggesting that the files are just a remnant that someone forgot to delete.

Is webdefault.xml exclusively used by Jetty (and thus safely removable) or does Tomcat (and/or other servers) still make use of it?

I have recently moved from Jetty to tomcat.I believe Tomcat uses ../conf/web.xml instead of webdefault.xml.So,try removing the webdefault.xml 's and see, it should work.
