| /** |
| * A <b>Container</b> is an object that can execute requests received from |
| * a client, and return responses based on those requests. A Container may |
| * optionally support a pipeline of Valves that process the request in an |
| * order configured at runtime, by implementing the <b>Pipeline</b> interface |
| * as well. |
| * <p> |
| * Containers will exist at several conceptual levels within Catalina. The |
| * following examples represent common cases: |
| * <ul> |
| * <li><b>Engine</b> - Representation of the entire Catalina servlet engine, |
| * most likely containing one or more subcontainers that are either Host |
| * or Context implementations, or other custom groups. |
| * <li><b>Host</b> - Representation of a virtual host containing a number |
| * of Contexts. |
| * <li><b>Context</b> - Representation of a single ServletContext, which will |
| * typically contain one or more Wrappers for the supported servlets. |
| * <li><b>Wrapper</b> - Representation of an individual servlet definition |
| * (which may support multiple servlet instances if the servlet itself |
| * implements SingleThreadModel). |
| * </ul> |
| * A given deployment of Catalina need not include Containers at all of the |
| * levels described above. For example, an administration application |
| * embedded within a network device (such as a router) might only contain |
| * a single Context and a few Wrappers, or even a single Wrapper if the |
| * application is relatively small. Therefore, Container implementations |
| * need to be designed so that they will operate correctly in the absence |
| * of parent Containers in a given deployment. |
| * <p> |
| * A Container may also be associated with a number of support components |
| * that provide functionality which might be shared (by attaching it to a |
| * parent Container) or individually customized. The following support |
| * components are currently recognized: |
| * <ul> |
| * <li><b>Loader</b> - Class loader to use for integrating new Java classes |
| * for this Container into the JVM in which Catalina is running. |
| * <li><b>Logger</b> - Implementation of the <code>log()</code> method |
| * signatures of the <code>ServletContext</code> interface. |
| * <li><b>Manager</b> - Manager for the pool of Sessions associated with |
| * this Container. |
| * <li><b>Realm</b> - Read-only interface to a security domain, for |
| * authenticating user identities and their corresponding roles. |
| * <li><b>Resources</b> - JNDI directory context enabling access to static |
| * resources, enabling custom linkages to existing server components when |
| * Catalina is embedded in a larger server. |
| * </ul> |
