Apache Tomcat Trunk Proposals

svn revision or other reference
+1:
-1:
* catalina-tribes.jar improvements
Messaging
=========
Add in support for UDP messages
- fire and forget
- ack on message
- ack on batch of messages
- periodic ack, time or message count
- support multicast fire and forget
- autoswitch TCP/UDP based on size, number of recipients, or on message flag
- add in versioning to the message structure
- Add in a delay between bind failures, to give the JVM a chance to recover
Priority Messaging
- Being able to send through high priority messages through a channel
pause existing messages
Failure Detection
=================
Improvements to the current failure detector
- NIO based
- avoid multiple member failed messages, keep a lock on a recipient basis
- different levels of failure check (accept, send/receive ack)
Networking
==========
Add in support to leverage multiple network cards in parallel (research
if any OS features are available to leverage this)
Performance/Concurrency
=======================
- Remove usage of "synchronized" (previously used for JDK 1.4 compatibility)
- make JDK 1.5 minimum version
- take advantage of java.util.concurrent
Membership
==========
- implement payloadChange(...) event on membership listener
* Make OSGi Bundles of each jar
* Include tomcat-juli and tomcat-juli-adapters as an add on package when doing a release
Session Replication
===================
- New feature - only replicate upon demand
Runtime tomcat doesn't do live session replication
but you can move the sessions upon demand before shutting down a tomcat instance
and draining sessions
