<add>
<bug>47919</bug>: Extend the information logged when Tomcat starts to
optionally log the values of command line arguments (enabled by

<add>
<bug>56394</bug>: Introduce new configuration element CookieProcessor in
Context to allow context-specific configuration of cookie processing
options. Attributes of Context element that were added in Tomcat 8.0.13

(<code>useRfc6265</code> and <code>cookieEncoding</code>) are
replaced by this new configuration element. (markt)

Ensure that log messages generated by the web application class loader
correctly identify the associated Context when multiple versions of a
Context with the same path are present. (markt)

<bug>52558</bug>: Refactor <code>CometConnectionManagerValve</code> so
that it does not prevent the session from being serialized in when
running in a cluster. (markt)

<bug>52767</bug>: Remove reference to MySQL specific autoReconnect

Make the Mapper type-safe. Hosts, Contexts and Wrappers are no
longer handled as plain objects, instead they keep their type.
Code using the Mapper doesn't need to cast objects returned by
the mapper. (rjung)
</scode>
<scode>
Move Manager, Loader and Resources from Container to Context since
Context is the only place they are used. The documentation already
states (and has done for some time) that Context is the only valid
location for these nested components. (markt)
</scode>
<scode>
Move the Mapper from the Connector to the Service since the Mapper is
identical for all Connectors of a given Service and it is common for
there to be multiple Connectors for a Service (http, https and ajp).
This means there is now only ever one Mapper per Service rather than
possibly multiple identically configured Mapper objects. (markt)
</scode>
<scode>
Remove the per Context Mapper objects and use the Mapper from the
Service. This removes the need to maintain two copies of the mappings
for Servlets and Filters. (markt)
</scode>
<add>
Implement a new Resources implementation that merges Aliases,
VirtualLoader, VirtualDirContext, JAR resources and external
repositories into a single framework rather than a separate one for each
feature. (markt)

URL rewrite valve, similar in functionality to mod_rewrite. (remm)

Port storeconfig functionality, which can persist to server.xml and
context.xml runtime container configuration changes. (remm)

to servlet-api.jar to enable relative references between the schemas to
be correctly resolved. (markt)

Refactor the descriptor parsing code into a separate module that can be
used by both Catalina and Jasper. Includes patches provided by Jeremy
Boynes. (violetagg/markt)

<bug>55246</bug>: Move TLD scanning to a ServletContainerInitializer
provided by Jasper. Includes removal of TldConfig lifecycle listener and
associated Context properties. (jboynes)

<bug>55317</bug>: Facilitate weaving by allowing ClassFileTransformer to
be added to WebappClassLoader. Patch by Nick Williams. (markt)
</add>
<fix>
<bug>55620</bug>: Enable Tomcat to start when either $CATALINA_HOME
and/or $CATALINA_BASE contains a comma character. Prevent Tomcat from
starting when $CATALINA_HOME and/or $CATALINA_BASE contains a semi-colon
on Windows. Prevent Tomcat from starting when $CATALINA_HOME and/or
$CATALINA_BASE contains a colon on Linux/FreeBSD/etc. (markt)
</fix>
<scode>
Initialize the JSP runtime in Jasper's initializer to avoid need for a
Jasper-specific lifecycle listener. <code>JasperListener</code> has been
removed. (jboynes)
</scode>
<fix>
Change ordering of elements of JMX objects names so components are
grouped more logically in JConsole. Generally, components are now
grouped by Host and then by Context. (markt)
</fix>
<add>
Context listener to allow better EE and framework integration. (remm)
</add>
<fix>
<bug>57896</bug>: Support defensive copying of "cookie" header so that
unescaping double quotes in a cookie value does not corrupt original
value of "cookie" header. This is an opt-in feature, enabled by
<code>org.apache.tomcat.util.http.ServerCookie.PRESERVE_COOKIE_HEADER</code>
system property. (remm/kkolinko)
