[CATALINA] M4 source build fails?

Hi there Craig et al, I just downloaded the m4 source archives as per the message sent recently and ant and regexp from cvs and followed the intructions, but I can't get it to build. Looks to me like theres a problem with the javadoc steps. When I execute:

Tomcat 4.0 m4 filter impl.

Hi there, I've got some questions about Servlet API 2.3 Filters and the Tomcat 4.0 m4 implementation of them. I've been thinking about implementing one of those new-fangled Filter things. I've been reading the spec, and I've found a few things which are unclear. I've also read the source for

Re: [tomcat 4.0] Turning off random number seeding

Jon, I thought the RNG only took around 5 seconds on that kind of machine. Are you sure it's not classloading taking the time? I found removing the manifest from my .jar files can make up to an order of magnitude difference on some servlet engines... Cheers Geoff - Original Message -

Tomcat 4.0 current dir problems

Hi there Craig, I've been attempting to set up Tomcat 4.0 b1 for my own use, and I've found I have a bit of an issue with the way that it handles the "current directory". Usually I like to install a servlet container once and have multiple configurations for it set up in different directories

TC4: small suggestion for classloader docs

Hi Craig, I've just been looking through Bootstrap.java and the classloader docs in Catalina because I need to do some classloading hacks of my own. Congrats, the code is really clear and it's (finally) helped me understand how the whole classloader delegation thing works. Anyway, just a

Re: small suggestion for classloader docs

Anyway, just a nitpick, but there's a slightly confusing thing: the System classloader in the Bootstrap.java doesn't correspond to the "System" classloader in the docs - instead it corresponds to the "Common" classloader ... I think it'd be a bit clearer if they were synchronised... :-)

Re: cvs commit: jakarta-tomcat/src/native/mod_jk/common jk_uri_worker_map.c

James I'm no expert on this matter (I don't use Apache), but here's my 2c. The problem is you have two apps "competing" for mapping of URLs. We wish to centralise it inside tomcat (in web.xml), and have the minimum amount of config in the apache.conf as possible. Thus, we avoid the solution you

[T4] servlet including jsp causes jsp to flush buffer?

Hi, I've got a servlet which includes a JSP page, and it appears that the JSP engine in Tomcat 4.0 calls response.flushBuffer() when the include finishes. IMHO this behaviour is incorrect, as it should be up to the topmost servlet to control what is happening with the buffering as much as

[t4] FYI: usual problems building according to README...

Hi tc4 people, I'm putting myself through the regular build TC4 from source hell that I do whenever I want to test the latest version. (this is on WinNT4) I came across the following issues, you may be aware of them already but I thought I'd report 'em just in case... 1) It no longer builds on

Re: [t4] FYI: usual problems building according to README...

Hi remy, Thanks for the reply. It's a lot easier now, actually :) It wasn't that hard b4, just the README was always a little out of date... 2) it seems to be depending on old versions of the projects it depends on: It looks like you're still using the build scripts. You shouldn't.

Re: [t4] FYI: usual problems building according to README...

We're planning to do that, actually, and we're waiting a bit before removing the outdated scripts. fair enough. I always seem to run in to things like that when I build from source. To be expected I suppose... I don't suppose now I've got your attention you'd like to comment on the Jasper

Re: [repost] [T4] servlet including jsp causes jsp to flush buffer?

Sorry, my fault. This was actually our code calling stream.flush() which ends up calling response.flushBuffer() (fairly reasonable, really :-). So, looks like the T4 code is beyond reproach, again. Geoff - Original Message - From: Geoff Soutter [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: [EMAIL PROTECTED

[t4] [patch] for inconvenient -config current dir

Hi there, As I've been twiddling with T4 again recently this problem has resurfaced. In T3, I was able to specify the -config option relative to my current directory. T4 has changed this so that a relative path used with -config is resolved relative to CATALINA_HOME. I find this annoying
