Hi Everybody,
Prodded by Ted Stockwell and others I put together some code I had with new
one to create a first, though very early (:)) implementation of JNLP at
server side.
There are 30-some classes that will cover all the specs. So far I had only
normal and simple versioning working. But in a while I think I can implement
all the rest. At the core of it there is a simple, single-threaded servlet.
I tested it with Tomcat 3.2.1.
Let me know what to do now. I guess my options are:
1. keep on working on my own till I have a more complete version of the
protocol.
2. put the code as is in a directory in the Commons sandbox and keepon
working from there.
3. something else..
