The proposed Apache Tomcat 11.0.0-M4 release is now available for
voting.
Apache Tomcat 11.0.0-M4 is a milestone release of the 11.0.x branch and
has been made to provide users with early access to the new features in
Apache Tomcat 11.0.x so that they may provide feedback. The notable
changes compared to the previous milestone include:
- Revert the switch to using the ServiceLoader mechanism to load the
custom URL protocol handlers that Tomcat uses. The original system
property based approach has been restored.
- Provide an implementation of the sub-set of JavaBeans support that
does not depend on the java.beans package. This for use by Expression
Language when the java.desktop module (which is where the java.beans
package resides) is not available.
- Restore inline state after async operation in NIO2, to account the
fact that unexpected exceptions are sometimes thrown by the
implementation. Patch submitted by zhougang.
For full details, see the change log:

Applications that run on Tomcat 9 and earlier will not run on Tomcat 11
without changes. Java EE applications designed for Tomcat 9 and earlier
may be placed in the $CATALINA_BASE/webapps-javaee directory and Tomcat
will automatically convert them to Jakarta EE and copy them to the
webapps directory. Applications using deprecated APIs may require
further changes.
