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.
