jk2: dependencies between logger.file and workerEnv
I've just produce a non-Windows version of the DSAPI (Lotus Domino)
connector and I had a bit of a struggle getting the initialisation code
right because of co-dependencies between workerEnv and logger.file. It
seems that logger.file needs workerEnv to exist for it to initialise
itself but the workerEnv initialisation code expects a logger to exist.
I've ended up with workerEnv initialisation logging to an uninitialised
file logger which results in log output being sent to stdout. Not
terribly satisfactory but it allows the connector to load.
jk_logger_file.c can easily be doctored to remove the dependency on
workerEnv but it would then lose the ability to expand named properties
in the passed in filename (like: "${serverRoot}/logs/jk2.log").
Any thoughts on the nicest way to fix it? I don't mind implementing a
fix but I don't want to make unpalatable changes to the common jk2 code.

Hello All, A little while ago I did a DSAPI (Domino's version of ISAPI) filter that allowed TC 3 to work quite happily with Lotus Domino. After a protracted period in which I haven't updated it I now, finally, have the time to produce a new version. Last time I started with the ISAPI (IIS) code and worked from there - I think I'll probably do the same this time. Just for kicks I thought I'd get IIS and the ISAPI filter working with a production Tomcat here - I like to start a project with something that's working even if I can claim no credit for it - but to be honest I'm finding it hard to work out which ISAPI DLL I need for a recent production Tomcat 4.1.27 - just basic stuff like what source does what. Now, I'm sure this is just an RTFM but I've spent the last couple of hours RVFM and none of them thus far has yielded anything like a comprehensive understanding of which bits I need and how I configure them. I'll need the source soon enough but at the moment I can't even find the isapi_redirector2.dll. Oh, I have a working TC 4.1.27 so that's something :) Anyway, shields up - by all means tell me I'm being stupid but the impression I'm forming is that the support for web servers other than Apache is in some slight disarray.

As a matter of interest are these rules for classpath construction
documented anywhere (other than the source of course ;-)?

Urm. I'm keen to be guided by people who have a better overview of where connectors are headed in general and what needs doing really. My priority is to make sure the current Domino/JK connector works OK with TC4.0. Once that's nailed I'm open to suggestions. I'd be happy to produce a wepapp version of the Domino connector, but I'm also happy to undertake any work that needs doing on the IIS connector (I'm not suggesting there /is/ work to do on IIS -- it's just something I could quite easily do).

Re: Tomcat source archive corrupt?
Most likely it's a line ending issue. Visual Studio can't handle .dsp/.dsw files with Unix line endings -- you can fix it by editing the file in a proper text editor and changing the line endings.

I'm not sure I agree with forcing the user to take the source as some sort of evangelical device, but this last point is well made I think. I've encountered more than one case of someone new to Tomcat in particular and Open Source in general being confused about the relationship between the source and binary versions. While you might argue that they should damn well RTFM, I can see value in tying the source and binary versions together to avoid a bit of confusion. -- Andy Armstrong, Tagish

Different approach to TC as a service (was: Separating Service code from Tomcat 4.0)
Hi Joe et al, Joe Flowers wrote: [snip cogent words about running TC as a service] I agree with you 100% WRT the difficulty of getting JavaService to work -- a sysadmin here pulled most of his few remaining hairs one day trying to get it working, so while I haven't personally looked at it I can well sympathize. For the Domino connector I took a slightly different approach: the Domino connector can optionally be configured to start Tomcat when it loads. This has a number of benefits including * simplified installation * assurance that Tomcat starts and stops at the right time relative to the web server's lifecycle * conceptually portable By "conceptually portable" I mean that while the code in the connector to implement Tomcat startup and shutdown isn't the same for all platforms the concept of running Tomcat in that way is -- you can safely assume that whatever the platform the admin has already arranged for the web server to start automatically if that's what they want, and the arrangements for starting Tomcat at the same time are essentially the same across all platforms. It would be easy enough to add the same functionality to the other connectors. This is a simple solution for all platforms in all cases except the one where you want to have Tomcat autostart in stand-alone mode, and I would assume that that's a relatively rare requirement. If there's interest I can investigate adding the same functionality to the other connectors. -- Andy Armstrong, Tagish

No, I think it's right as it stands. Just because we're working in C doesn't mean we can't do encapsulation. This is a perfectly valid idiom to express the concept of some.c and some.h working together to implement a 'class' which is only accessed through a functional interface. The encapsulation benefits are the same as for Java or C++. For one thing it means that the implementation in some.c can change without impacting client code. I haven't looked at any of the specific cases you're talking about, but in general I would say that this is good programming style. -- Andy Armstrong, Tagish
Re: [J-T-C] struct defs
The reason would be to keep the implementation details of the structure
private so that people aren't tempted to access the fields directly. All
the caller gets is an opaque handle. Think of it as 'objects lite' for
C.

You have, of course, put your finger on the reason why so many free software projects have sucky docs -- we'd all far rather fantasize about high falutin tools than put finger to keyboard. Talking about the tools is just another reason to delay writing the docs. Anyway +1 million on getting some decent docs written.
