Last time I mailed the list, I was inquiring about implementing a custom connector or something along those lines to support a binary protocol along with HTTP. This approach proved flawed for various reasons, if not virtually impossible to do with the connector, processor, handler architecture etc..
So the approach I was wanting to try next was to amend our in-house protocol slightly and include initial HTTP headers so as to make use of the standard Http11Processor etc and then continue (after initial servlet mapping) with the current binary protocol. My question is, is this possible using say a POST.... to then continue comms on the input and output streams using binary? I have tried to implement this approach but any read I do from the input stream after the request is forwarded to the servlet service method, throws an EOFException, which I haven't quite figured out. I wrote a simple socket client that writes the POST, a host header, and a blank line, I then write 2 int's and a String, but I am unable to read the ints and the String from the input stream in the service method without encountering the EOFException. Does anybody know what might cause this? I can't quite isolate any code within Tomcat that might be causing this issue. - Darryl --------------------------------------------------------------------- To start a new topic, e-mail: users@tomcat.apache.org To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
