The TranQL project is using a SVN repo now (their website was never
updated...)
The different TranQL components can be found under -
http://svn.codehaus.org/tranql/

Hi,
Sorry to bring this up again. I read most of the connector specification
and I feel I understand better the concepts. I therefore tried to
download tranql source code to have the source code of an outbound
connector. However it seems that the cvs repository for this does not
work since my cvs client is telling me that the host could not be found.
Does anyone know from where I can download examples of inbound and
outbound connectors?
Thanks and Regards,
Simon J.

Hi Juergen,
Thanks for your quick reply. That is very similar to what I want to
try and achieve and the concept is very similar to the one I was
trying to achieve on Tomcat! Is there something like this provided
by the Apache Software Foundation?
Based on the level of writing in the documentation I would be careful
using txconnect. I only looked at the documentation for a couple
minutes. While I did not see any of the glaring errors I usually find
in j2ca projects it looks to me as if there were quite a few misleading
statements.
If you are looking for a framework for building outbound j2ca
connectors, there is also the codehaus tranql project which is under asl
2.0. Geronimo ships with the tranql db adapters to provide jdbc
connectivity.
However, based on your original attempt to do something related to a
tomcat http connector I really doubt you are interested in an outbound
connector, which is designed to let your server program connect to other
programs such as a database, SAP, CICS, etc as a client.
You might possibly be interested in a j2ca inbound connector. The
standard example of these is a jms implementation supplying messages to
mdbs.
Perhaps you could explain what you are trying to do:
- what the source of messages is
- what transport and protocol they travel over
- what the consumer of the messages is
- whether the communication is synchronous (message receiver sends a
reply back to the message sender) or asynchronous (no reply to messages,
such as with MOM or jms)
- which role(s) your server program will be playing
- how many clients, servers, and messages you want to handle
