JavaGroups is cool, thanks :), and yes, it does support TCP. :)) >What I'd like to do at some point is take Filip Hanik's TC4 session >replication code (looking nice!) and make it switchable to use either >Spread or JavaGroups, or other communication mechanisms for keeping the >session data in sync. Pluggable messaging back-ends.. I would fully support this, I think it is a great idea! >FWIW, I'd like to see the in-memory session replication code as part >of TC4 itself, with a pluggable messaging layer API that allows >a separate messaging system to be used. yes yes yes, I would say make the hook ins and interfaces in catalina, and then you can just plug in any messaging system you want. Remy, as I mentioned before, I more than willing to be the maintainer of this code base, and work with people like Jason to get a pluggable messaging system in there. Right now we are only waiting for you and other Tomcat developers to make the decision to move forward since I don't have commit privileges. have a wonderful day.
