Hi,

I have done further research for this topic and I found a solution for tomcat 5.5: http://www.mhsoftware.com/~gsexton/Mapper.java Should this also work on Tomcat 6 (simply to change the Mapper implementation)? Can the mapper class be replaced via configuration (I don't think so beause it's final and has no interfaces)?

I've read a discussion about the change above but there was decied not to add this to the tomcat sources because it slows down the mapping by 0,05%. Maybe the code could be changed in a way that there's no noticeable slowdown when wildcards are disabled. I have no idea how much the slowdown would be if I'd add 100 extra host aliases instead of a wildcard but I think it would be similar.

Regards, Michael.

I was searching for a way to use wildcard host names in tomcat (e.g. *.myhost.com). With the current implementation it seems not to be possible. I found some ideas like using a valve at engine level which forwards to the correct hostname. The problem with this is that the servlets wouln'd see the original hostname then (correct me if I'm wrong with that).

So I'm looking for a way to implement this. Since tomcat is very modular, maybe it's just one component which needs to be replaced by a modified one. But I'm not a tomcat developer and so I have no idea where to start with that. So could you help with some ideas how I could implement this? I would do the implementation and send the results to the devel team.

Regards, Michael.

Is there a reason why you can't exploit the defaultHost attribute of the Engine element in server.xml?

(If you need help with that, then I suggest you try the users list.)
