Yeah, "fatal" is probably too strong (of course, there are five or so years of record that I'm not a big fan of Catalina, so I probably overstated it :). To "fix" it (without changing the Catalina architecture) would probably require duplicating the StandardHostValve stuff in ApplicationFilterChain (which would be just too horrible). And, since as Jan has noted, the spec is grey (or, rather, inconsistant) on this requirement, I'm +1 to your -1 ;-). Of course, if this gets clarified against us in the final 2.5 spec, then we'll have to do it for Tomcat 6. > Rémy --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
