Hello All, I am new to web development with tomcat. Have many years experience in C and C++ on Unix.
I am newbie to tomcat too. Pardon me if my questions seem simple, just guide me to the source or links. I am interested in debugging the tomcat server source code through Eclipse.I would like to see how/where/what of the tomcat source code and it's internals to get a grip on the way it handles things. I have the following installed - 1)Eclipse Java For EE - Luna 2)Have the RC7_0_57 of the tomcat code. 3) I have tomcat 6,7,8 installed and tested. Running concurrently on three different port setups etc. My intention is to write a few Servlet based projects and step into the tomcat source code while debugging from eclipse. I haven't found any good link to achieve the same.I will have to compile the tomcat source code too, don't know how to do that either. I would be obliged if you could help me or point me to the sources to achieve this goal. Thanks in Advance, Harmeet
