o The installer only runs on Unix. Windows support will require a
tweaked catalina.bat and a work around for Windows file locking.
Cygwin won't work either and will require even more work arounds in
the Unix code to deal with pathing problems.
o There is no uninstaller. Currently, the installer deletes the
non-compliant Tomcat annotations-api.jar so in addition to backing
out the changes, you need to restore this file.
o Annotations in servlets to OpenEJB resources (EJBs,
PersistenceUnits, Topics, Queues, DataSources, etc) don't resolve.
You will have to use global JNDI for the time being.
o There is no security integration. I suggest you don't even try
using secured EJB in Tomcat embedded mode yet.
o We only support Tomcat 6 and I suggest you use the newest version
as I haven't tested any older 6 revisions. We could potentially
support older versions of Tomcat if there were enough demand, but I
doubt there will be since OpenEJB 3 requires Java5.
