> From: David Vos [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] > > What version of Tomcat is recommended with the latest Cocoon?
JDK1.3.1 + Tomcat 4.0.4 + Cocoon 2.0.2 Or: JDK1.3.1 + Tomcat 4.0.4 + Cocoon 2.0.3-jvm13 release JDK1.4 + Tomcat 4.0.4LE + Cocoon 2.0.3-jvm14 release Cocoon 2.0.3 releases are due in several days from now. > If I go to > their release binaries for Tomcat 4.0.4, it lists a standard version and a > lightweight version that does not include any of the optional binaries or > an XML parser. It says that JDK 1.4 should come with its own XML parser. > http://jakarta.apache.org/builds/jakarta-tomcat-4.0/release/v4.0.4/bin/ > > I am leaning to the Lightweight build so that I don't have extra stuff on > the machine and it would be easier to understand what is really going > on. However, I am concerned about the XML parser. We are running an IBM > 1.4 JDK on the server. Is that as fast as Xerces? Does Cocoon use the > same parser as Tomcat, or does it use its own? Cocoon ships with own parser in WEB-INF/lib which you can replace. > Since a fast XML parser is so important for my job, my boss even suggested > that I look into seeing if I could get Cocoon to work with the C++ > Xerces/Xalan. C++ version of SAX parser used with Cocoon will be slower then Java version because of multitude of SAX calls which has to be routed through JNI. > We have tested a stand-alone C++ Xalan engine against > (an older version of) Cocoon, and Cocoon lost by a factor of 10 or 20 on > large documents. Is the newest version of Cocoon using a SAX parser? Yes.
