Sometimes an exception is arising
The Tomcat Data Object is being initialized in TomcatModuleInstall class. This is due to that TomcatModuleInstall adds Tomcat Web Server (it's node) to Server Registry. Tomcat node is made as DataNode which requires to have TomcatDataObject ready that time. This needs to be changed in future and Tomcat Node should be reprogrammed.
Target milestone -> 3.3
Tomcat Data Object constructor now is not called at startup - only when actually needed. This happens in these cases : - when Tomcat Plugin node is opened - WEB-INF node is opened(this is due to the fact that WEB-INF needs to have Tomcat in it's execution/targetServer combo box list)
I verified this.
