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.

RE: [OT] Servlets tied to J2EE in new spec
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. -Original Message- From: message message [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Monday, July 28, 2003 10:38 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: RE: [OT] Servlets tied to J2EE in new spec Imagine spending a weekend being mis informed.

Does It mean there are hidden dependencies ? I do know that Servlets are part of the J2EE spec. 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.
