I would disagree on your first point re Jetty/Tomcat. Jetty is rebranded as JBossWeb, it's source code is checked into JBoss cvs, it logs onto org.jboss categories and is included in the vanilla d/l, etc... TC is not and has never been.----- Original Message ----- From: "Rick LaBanca" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Monday, March 03, 2003 7:53 AM Subject: Re: [JBoss-user] Feature idea
page orJetty is separate but the jboss folks seem to want to treat it as the official jsp portion of the suite (I agree). I think of jboss as the controller over all its components so specifying some kind of wait
other logic should be at this top level somehow I think.
Jetty is **currently** the default JSP engine used by JBoss. Not too long ago, Tomcat was the default. I don't think either of them is "official", sine they are independent products and JBoss just picks one. At this point, I prefer Tomcat. So if anyone chooses to address this issue, I sincerely hope they do so in an agnostic manner. JBoss has been very good up to now about making all things pluggable, so I'm assuming they would in this case also. I definitely don't want to anything that is Jetty-specific.
Re your second point, yes, in a perfect world, whatever support was put in for this would be portable, however with the spec not mandating any particular behaviour, and with no common (between Jetty and TC) code between the arrival of the HTTP request and it's dispatch on the servlet, in which to insert this fn-ility, I think you are entering the world of proprietary features...
I agree that proprietariness is not the best solution, but for people with problems to solve today, it may be the only route available.
