Thanks, currently we have option to use APR but NIO is the default. Perhaps we drop APR and then switch to Tomcat Native 2.
What if we have both tcnative-1.dll and tcnative-2.dll available, I guess that Tomcat will use tcnative-2.dll with NIO and tcnative-1.dll with APR ? 😊 -Harri -----Original Message----- From: Mark Thomas <ma...@apache.org> Sent: perjantai 12. syyskuuta 2025 15.17 To: Tomcat Users List <users@tomcat.apache.org> Subject: Re: Tomcat Native 1.3.1 vs 2.0.9 On 12/09/2025 12:06, Harri Pesonen wrote: > Hello, > > download page for Tomcat Native has two versions, 2.0.9 and 1.3.1: > > https://tomc/ > at.apache.org%2Fdownload-native.cgi&data=05%7C02%7Charri.pesonen%40sin > ch.com%7C1228e855b1974189438508ddf1f6e623%7C3b518aae89214a7b8497619d75 > 6ce20e%7C0%7C0%7C638932764925647778%7CUnknown%7CTWFpbGZsb3d8eyJFbXB0eU > 1hcGkiOnRydWUsIlYiOiIwLjAuMDAwMCIsIlAiOiJXaW4zMiIsIkFOIjoiTWFpbCIsIldU > IjoyfQ%3D%3D%7C0%7C%7C%7C&sdata=plWNOFB8KZmjPF5SgY9wB3hlSP2BVbVuWr8xcn > 5IYmM%3D&reserved=0 > > We are currently using 1.3.1 and there has not been so many changes lately, > compare to version 2. > I fail to find documentation for why one should use one or other, what is the > difference between these two versions? The change log would be a good place to start: https://tomcat.apache.org/native-doc/miscellaneous/changelog.html The 2.0.0 entry describes what was removed/changed between 1.3.1 and 2.0.0 > Can I simply drop version 2 in place of version 1? > The DLL names are different, 1.3.1 is tcnative-1.dll while 2.0.9 is > tcnative-2.dll. If you want to use one of the APR connectors, you need to use 1.3.x. If you use NIO (or NIO2) with OpenSSL then 2.x is fine. Note: Tomcat is moving towards just supporting NIO (no NIO2, no APR) for HTTP and AJP with OpenSSL support via Tomcat Native as an option for HTTP.
