Tomcat is the Java Servlet / Java Server Page environment produced
by the Apache Foundation's Jakarta Project.  Tomcat can be run as a
standalone web server with Servlet and JSP support, or using Apache
Server as it's web server via the mod_jk Apache module (www/ap-jk).
Initial import of jakarta-tomcat-3.0, the Apache Project Servlet/Java Server Pages engine. This currently runs as a standalone http server with Servlet/JSP support, and will be usable with Apache Server if/when we have a mod_jserv package. I will look into that next, unless someone is already. 2000-01-12 23:21:34 +01:00			`Tomcat is the Java Servlet / Java Server Page environment produced`

Update jakarta-tomcat to version 3.1. While here, clean up the package a fair deal. Changes from 3.0 (the last pkgsrc version) include: * Thread pooling and JVM load balancing * ISAPI and NSAPI integration * A Command line JSP to Servlet Code tool * Automatic generation of Apache configuration files * Automatic deployment of Web ARchive (WAR) files * Logging * Substantially improved documentation * Experimental servlet reloading * Experimental security implementation * Minimal Admin/Deployment Tool * Internal APIs were changed for flexibility and integration * The source code was cleaned and reorganized * Most non-essential code was moved out of tomcat.core * Greater platform / JVM level coverage * Many, many bugs were fixed. IMHO, this is _much_ closer to being a real, usable platform than 3.0 was (as was intender - 3.0 was more of a proof of concept), and is very close to being something to push into production -- I'm banking on a late 3.1.X or 3.2 for that. 2000-05-15 01:35:26 +02:00			`standalone web server with Servlet and JSP support, or using Apache`
Refer to www/ap-jk (distributed as part of Tomcat) instead of the older www/ap-jserv. 2002-12-28 22:09:15 +01:00			`Server as it's web server via the mod_jk Apache module (www/ap-jk).`
