When tomcat start netbeans create and clean a new console, but when you redeploy tomcat application it not clear the Console. When you are developing and aplication you redeploy it so many times, and you must clear the console a lot of time, but i think, you have to clear always whe you redeploy it IMHO
I don't think that clearing console on each redeploy is good solution. I'd rather see some separater added to the console (like line of minus: '----').
FWIW, my vote, like the original requester, is to clear the Tomcat console at each redeploy. Or at least provide a checkbox somewhere to enable optional clearing of the console at each redeploy.
