Re: How Do I Install A Valve
Thanks for the advice. I had originally put my class in org.apache.catalina.valves to avoid any problems with access to protected fields and methods. After reading your reply, I studied the Tomcat classes and determined that there would be no problems. So, I have moved my class to my own package, bundled it into a jar, and put it in CATALINA_HOME/server/lib. Works like a charm! - Mark Benson Margulies wrote: To begin with, unless you are planning to submit your valve as a patch for inclusion, I wouldn't recommend putting it in org.apache.anything.
