[ http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/GERONIMO-845?page=comments#action_12317517 ]
David Jencks commented on GERONIMO-845: --------------------------------------- Does virtual server == virtual host? If so, there is an impedance mismatch between jetty and tomcat. Jetty allows you to set an array of virtual host names for a web app, whereas tomcat allows you to set a single host, and then add aliases to the host. Offhand I don't see how to reconcile these two models and think it may be better to respect the differences and include a custom xml element in the geronimo-web plan. In general I find the current extension method in geronimo-web unsatisfactory and think we need to evaluate putting an "any" element in with specialized xml builders or using schema inheritance to support multiple web containers. ps. I thought there already was an jira entry for this issue but can't find it at the moment. > Jetty support for virtual servers > --------------------------------- > > Key: GERONIMO-845 > URL: http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/GERONIMO-845 > Project: Geronimo > Type: Improvement > Components: deployment, web > Versions: 1.0-M4 > Reporter: Aaron Mulder > Fix For: 1.0-M5 > > Currently, Tomcat provides virtual server support via a container-specific > configuration extension.
