We are finding line separator has changed on Mac OS X in tomcat 8.5.23 response
relative to all previous versions of tomcat we tested (8.0.47, 7.0.72 and
7.0.82). We see nothing in change log to understand this change.
Specifically, 8.5.23 is generating CRLF in response (showing up as ^M in vim),
while previous versions of tomcat are just producing LF. As a result all of
our tests based on earlier versions of tomcat are failing.
Is this a bug, in which case we will wait for fix (and lets tests fail due to
known issue in tomcat) or is this how tomcat will always generate response
going forward - in which case we will make our tests more lenient to be
backward compatible somehow.
Thanks.
