RE: [OT] Servlets tied to J2EE in new spec

You can still use Tomcat.  Servlets have always been part of the J2EE spec.
You can still use Tomcat.  I have deployed Servlet 2.4/JSP 2.0 apps in
Tomcat 5.0.4 successfully.

HTH,

Hi,

I just attended a conference this weekend.A speaker mentioned that with the
Servlet 2.4 spec, Servlets are being tied to the J2EE environment.I would
like to know in what way ? Also,does this mean that we can't use Tomcat
anymore ??

Thanks,
Vijay

Subject: Re: Struts - j2ee compliant
To use struts framework does the server have to be J2EE compliant ?



To use Struts your container has to implement the Servlet 2.2
Specification (which is part of J2EE 1.2) or later.  If you're using JSP
pages, your container must also support JSP 1.1 (also part of J2EE 1.2) or
later.
Any J2EE 1.2 or later container will therefore support Struts.  However,
Struts itself does not require any J2EE capabilities other than Servlet or
JSP.

if so  is that the case  for model 1  model 2 ?



Model 1 and Model 2 have nothing to do with J2EE compliant or not.  They
describe architectural approaches to building web applications, and appy
no matter what technology you are using.

Is tomcat always J2EE compliant ?


Tomcat implements the Servlet and JSP specs, but is not a complete J2EE
container.  The first digit of the Tomcat version number tells you which
versions:
* Tomcat 3.x -- Servlet 2.2 and JSP 1.1
* Tomcat 4.x -- Servlet 2.3 and JSP 1.2
* Tomcat 5.x -- Servlet 2.4 and JSP 2.0
As you can see from the above description, though, Tomcat can be used to
execute Struts based appications.

One of my original question was : I would like to know in what way the
Servlets were tied more closely to the J2EE EJB world in the new spec ? Does
It mean there are hidden dependencies ? I do know that Servlets are part of
the J2EE spec.

Imagine spending a weekend being mis informed.
Waste of time  Waste of money.
All you had to do was send an email here.  :)

The dependency has *not* changed -- it is (and always has been) that a
container that wants to implement J2EE has to implement Servlet.  The
servlet spec has since 2.2 had some optional requirements (lke suppoting a
JNDI naming context) that were only required inside a J2EE app server.
But again, this is nothing new.

Without knowing precisely what the speaker you alluded to actually said,
it's not possible to provide any more definitive response to your
question.
