| * What is jakarta-tomcat-connector ? |
| |
| jakarta-tomcat-connector is a new project to release web-servers connector |
| for the jakarta Tomcat servlet engine. |
| |
| This project didn't start from null since it reuse the latest code from |
| mod_jk for the native parts and tomcat 3.3 for the java side of the |
| force. |
| |
| From mod_jk we gain : |
| |
| * A connector (plugin) for many Web Server, including |
| Apache HTTP Server, Netscape/IPLanet NES and Microsoft IIS |
| It also support JNI (and seems to used at least by IBM under |
| AS/400 for Apache/WebSphere connectivity). |
| |
| * Fault-tolerance and load-balancing. mod_jk use the concept of |
| workers which handle a particular request, and a special worker |
| , the lb worker, is a group (cluster ?) of physical workers. |
| |
| * Direct access to Tomcat 3.2/3.3/4.0/4.1 servlet engine via ajp13 |
| protocol. |
| |
| * OK, then how do I build web-connector ? Just take a look at BUILDING |
