+tomcat8 (8.5.8-1) experimental; urgency=medium
+
+ Migrating from Tomcat 8.0.x to 8.5.x
+
+ Here is a summary of the known changes between 8.0.x and 8.5.x which may
cause
+ backwards compatibility problems when upgrading:
+
+ * BIO connector removed
+
+ The Java blocking IO implementation (BIO) for both HTTP and AJP has been
+ removed. Users are recommended to switch to the Java non-blocking IO
+ implementation (NIO).
+
+
+ * Comet support removed
+
+ Comet support has been removed without a direct replacement. Applications
+ using Comet are recommended to migrate to WebSockets.
+
+
+ * HTTP/2 support added
+
+ HTTP/2 is supported for h2 (over TLS, negotiated via ALPN) and h2c (clear
+ text, negotiated via HTTP/1.1 upgrade). HTTP/2 needs to be explicitly
+ enabled for a connector. To enable it, insert:
+
+ <UpgradeProtocol className="org.apache.coyote.http2.Http2Protocol" />
+
+ inside the connector for which you wish to enable HTTP/2. Note that to
+ enable HTTP/2 for a secure NIO or NIO2 connector, those connectors must
+ be using the OpenSSL engine for TLS.
+
+
+ * TLS virtual hosting and multiple certificate support added
+
+ Tomcat 8.5 supports multiple TLS virtual hosts for a single connector with
+ each virtual host able to support multiple certificates. Virtual host
+ definitions are nested inside the Connector element with the default
+ specified using the defaultSSLHostConfigName attribute on the Connector
+ if more than one virtual host is specified. Certificate definitions are
+ nested inside the virtual host.
+
+ The following example shows how to use this to configure a single
APR/native
+ connector for multiple TLS virtual hosts with each host having both an RSA
+ and EC certificate.
+
+ <Connector port="8443"
+ protocol="org.apache.coyote.http11.Http11AprProtocol"
+ maxThreads="150"
+ SSLEnabled="true"
+ defaultSSLHostConfigName="example.org">
+
+ <SSLHostConfig hostName="example.org">
+ <Certificate certificateKeyFile="conf/example.org-rsa-key.pem"
+ certificateFile="conf/example.org-rsa-cert.pem"
+ type="RSA" />
+ <Certificate certificateKeyFile="conf/example.org-ec-key.pem"
+ certificateFile="conf/example.org-ec-cert.pem"
+ type="EC" />
+ </SSLHostConfig>
+
+ <SSLHostConfig hostName="example.com">
+ <Certificate certificateKeyFile="conf/example.com-rsa-key.pem"
+ certificateFile="conf/example.com-rsa-cert.pem"
+ type="RSA" />
+ <Certificate certificateKeyFile="conf/example.com-ec-key.pem"
+ certificateFile="conf/example.com-ec-cert.pem"
+ type="EC" />
+ </SSLHostConfig>
+
+ </Connector>
+
+
+ * Internal APIs
+
+ Whilst the Tomcat 8.5 internal API is broadly compatible with Tomcat 8.0
+ there have been many changes at the detail level and they are not binary
+ compatible. Developers of custom components that interact with Tomcat's
+ internals should review the JavaDoc for the relevant API.
+
+ Of particular note are:
+
+ - Significant refactoring has taken place throughout the connectors
+ to reduce duplicate code and to align behaviour across implementations.
+ - The deprecated digest attribute has been removed from the Realm. This
must
+ now be configured via a CredentialHandler.
+ - The AuthenticatorBase implementation has been changed to call
+ doAuthenticate() rather than authenticate() on sub-classes.
+
+
+ * JSR-77 implementation removed
+
+ The JSR-77 (J2EE Management) implementation is incomplete and has been
+ removed in 8.5.x. Specifically, the following methods that exposed to JMX
+ have been removed:
+
+ - StandardContext.getServlets()
+ - StandardContext.isStateManageable()
+ - StandardContext.getDeploymentDescriptor()
+ - StandardWrapper.isStateManageable()
+
+
+ * Clustering
+
+ MessageDispatch15Interceptor had been used to add the Java 5 features
+ to MessageDispatchInterceptor. MessageDispatch15Interceptor has been
removed
+ in Tomcat 8.5 by merging the Java 5 features to MessageDispatchInterceptor.
+
+
+ * InstanceListener removed
+
+ The support of InstanceListener has been removed in 8.5.x. Specifically,
+ the following classes have been removed:
+
+ - org.apache.catalina.InstanceListener
+ - org.apache.catalina.InstanceEvent
+ - org.apache.catalina.util.InstanceSupport
+
+
+ * SessionManager
+
+ The following session manager attributes have been completely removed
+ in Tomcat 8.5:
+
+ - distributable
+ - maxInactiveInterval
+ - sessionIdLength
+
+ The replacements are as follows:
+
+ - The distributable attribute has been deprecated in 8.0 and specified
value
+ is ignored. This should be configured via the Context. The value is
+ inherited based on the presence or absence of the <distributable />
+ element in /WEB-INF/web.xml.
+ - The maxInactiveInterval attribute has been deprecated in 8.0. If the
value
+ is specified, a warning log is issued. This should be configured via the
+ Context. The value is inherited based on the value of the
<session-timeout>
+ element in /WEB-INF/web.xml.
+ - The sessionIdLength attribute of Manager has been replaced by the
+ sessionIdLength attribute of SessionIdGenerator.
+
+
+ * Cookies
+
+ The default CookieProcessor is now the Rfc6265CookieProcessor.
+ The CookieProcessor is configurable per Context and the
LegacyCookieProcessor
+ may be used to obtain the 8.0.x behaviour.
+
+
+ * Web applications
+
+ The Manager and HostManager web applications are configured by default with
+ a RemoteAddrValve that limits access to those applications to connections
+ from localhost.
+
+
+ * Context configurations
+
+ The clearReferencesStatic attribute has been removed in 8.5.x.
