Hi Tomcat gurus:

I've scoured the net for information on how to do port sharing within the 
context of a Tomcat Servlet-based web application process.  While there's some 
discussion, there still doesn't appear to be any solutions [YET] - that I could 
find yet.



What I need to do is the following:



* receive both HTTP and XMPP traffic on a single port [either 80 or 443 - 
depending on security configuration]

* route the HTTP traffic to Tomcat's HTTP Connector [or sub-processing 
component] if possible

* route the XMPP to an embedded Vysper server

* ALL running in the context of a single Tomcat Server process



This will enable us to leverage the power/investment in our servlet 
infrastructure and Vysper XMPP all together without having to open multiple 
ports.



If this is possible in either Tomcat 6 or Tomcat 7, please let me know how I 
should go about this:

* doing some custom extension in Tomcat (i.e. custom Tomcat connector that uses 
Netty for example)

* or, some other approach ???



please advise on how you would recommend achieving our goal.



Thanks in advance,

Bob
