I still don't intend to participate in future Tomcat development, but I have the feeling I am expected to answer this ;) So +0 for adding it the repository (since I won't help). > - Valves/LifecycleListeners versus plain Filters and listeners Personally, I think the strong type barrier between userland and the container is nice. > - configuration and better integration with frameworks ( > JMX/dep-injection/etc) > - sanbox support > - layers and complexity I am interested to look at the code like the proxy, and see if what it can do. OTOH, I'm really not buying the size argument. I mean, once you add all the "useless" components like the realms, session managers, utility "valves", JSP and JDT. That recurrent criticism is just lame: since its introduction in Tomcat 4.0, the current architecture only became faster and more efficient (running on the same hardware). Given its age, this means its requirements today are really small, and I think it's enough to address the embedded market ;) Rémy PS: Ok, I have no idea how you did it, but you managed to workaround the list's replyto. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
