Tomcat Servlets IIS ASP ?
I work w/ JSP but have no experience with ASP. I'd like to know how IIS processes ASP and if these same request/responses can also be sent to TOMCAT? What are other people doing for tomcat sites that use ASP? - To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, email: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Re: Tomcat Servlets IIS ASP ?
ASP is a tagging system integral to IIS. The language between the tags is Microsoft's proprietary VBScript (and I think you can also use VBasic, another Microsoft proprietary language). It also uses COM objects and other of Microsoft's proprietary concoction. Nothing about ASP is Java. I don't use IIS, but I understand Tomcat can be installed and used with IIS, and I presume JSP and ASP will work together without any conflict. But since ASP pages aren't coded in Java, to have Tomact handle them, you'd need to write a servlet that understands ASP tags and VBScript. To get an idea of what that entails, look at iASP, a commercial product of Halcyon. It is an ASP server written in Java that understands the ASP language. Described simply, it's a monster servlet (the reality is a tad more complex). iASP can be run using any compliant servlet engine, including Tomcat. You wouldn't need iASP on IIS since you've already got ASP, but looking at iASP does give you an idea of what's involved. -- Rob --On Monday, February 12, 2001 09:11:20 AM -0600 "Grobe, Gary" [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: I work w/ JSP but have no experience with ASP.

RE: Tomcat Servlets IIS ASP ?
Let me explain in a little more detail my question. I have servlets that insert code into responses (using filters) and I'd like to know if my client is using an ASP on IIS, will I be able to catch the response and insert my html code in that response? Also, will I be able to get requests also before IIS has start processing that ASP? -Original Message- From: Rob Tanner [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Monday, February 12, 2001 8:11 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: Tomcat Servlets IIS ASP ?

Also, will I be able to get requests also before IIS has start processing that ASP? I know I've heard of, but haven't delt with, COM brokers for java so you might check into that for some possibilities. Maybe a servlet that you could make a COM request from the ASP using this brokerage that would pass back the html but not actually "insert" the html. Just a stab in the dark. I haven't done anything like this myself. Definitely an interesting prospect you have going there PS - Hey look John G. you get to see another of my responses on the list!!!

P.S. to Michael: Sure. If you don't know anything about it, don't waste internet bandwidth sending it. -Original Message- From: Michael Wentzel [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Monday, February 12, 2001 8:35 AM To: '[EMAIL PROTECTED]' Subject: RE: Tomcat Servlets IIS ASP ?
