JNI broken in jk2 - due to jk2_channel_jni_open() 

           Summary: JNI broken in jk2 - due to jk2_channel_jni_open()
           Product: Tomcat 4
           Version: 4.1.18
          Platform: All
        OS/Version: All
            Status: NEW
          Severity: Critical
          Priority: Other
         Component: Connector:Coyote JK 2
        AssignedTo: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
        ReportedBy: [EMAIL PROTECTED]


There is no way in hell JNI can ever work with JK2.  
jk_channel_jni.c::jk2_channel_jni_open invokes
the java static method AprImpl.createJavaContext() which in turns tries to 
return a registered JkHandler for
Jni (ChannelJni) from the underlying hashtable. However when the in-process 
mode is enabled, there
is nobody registering any handlers! As a result null is trurned into c land 
from Java when createJavaContext
returns causing the JNI invocation to fail.
 
Tried this with Apache 2.0.43/44. With the out of process mode the declaration 
in server.xml cause a JkCoyoteHandler to be registered but with the in-process 
mode, this was suppose to happen automatically. Nobody seems to trigger a call 
to AprImpl.addJkHandler() - not in java land not in c land!
 
This convince me that JNI mode never really worked with JK2. If you look at the 
tomcat-user archive
you can see people falling on their faces trying to get this to work,but nobody 
has succedded now
I know why.
 
Someone should fix the Jk2 web site which lures naive users to believe that JNI 
mode is working with
Jk2! I did try to fix the problem by tring to instantiate a ChannelJni instance 
in the ctor of AprImpl and register
it into the jkHandlers table but  was getting NPE...don't know the code that 
well to know what assumptions are built into ChannelJni. Will continue to 
debug.
