Hi Tomcat Community,

GOAL:
My goal is to use Netty for multiple-protocol communication handling, but run 
inside Tomcat to leverage the overall application lifecycle support 
(deployment, control, monitoring, etc.). 

To achieve this, I plan to disable all Connectors and use Netty for the actual 
communication.  The appserver/listener model makes it very simple to manage our 
app and control the startup/shutdown lifecycle.  This is very beneficial from 
an overall operations, management and support standpoint.  We just need to 
leverage Netty's communication infrastructure.

QUESTION:
Does anyone know of any problem with the approach I've described - 
specifically, using Tomcat's appserver lifecycle management functionality, but 
disabling all Tomcat Connectors and using Netty for all of our application 
communication?

NOTE: Tomcat is dedicated to our application, so we don't have to worry about 
sharing a tomcat installation with other applications.


Thanks in advance for any comments/suggestions.
