Mr. Shultz,

I really appreciate your detailed answers.
Helps me out a lot.

I am now thinking big picture because my application does not require APR.

May I ask this , what exactly does APR give me for apache-tomcat?

I am thinking to scrap the whole APR install.

The reason I am trying to install it is because of my anal need to have 
clean logs.
I can’t stand any messages suggesting or recommending that I do this or 
that.
I have always tried to accommodate those recommendations.
However, in this case it may be the best to ignore the catalane log message 
saying that I should install APR.

Thank You;

What were you expecting that Filter to generate for you? A header which 
disables everything? Not terribly useful.

My recommendation would be to use something like url-rewrite[1] to add 
headers to every outgoing response. url-rewrite has very similar 
capabilities to httpd's mod_headers (and much more, of course).
