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.
