Changelog:
The Apache Tomcat Project is proud to announce the release of version 7.0.30
of Apache Tomcat. This release contains numerous bug fixes and improvements
compared to version 7.0.29. The notable changes include:
* Significantly reduced memory footprint during web application start while
Servlet 3.0 annotation and SCI scanning is in progress.
* Adds support for scanning of classes that use Java 7 specific byte code
for Servlet 3.0 annotation and SCI scanning.
* Improvements to DIGEST and FORM authentication.
Full details of these changes, and all the other changes, are available in the
http://tomcat.apache.org/tomcat-7.0-doc/changelog.html .
Tomcat 7.0.26 (markt)
Catalina
code Provide constants for commonly used Charset objects
and use these constants where appropriate. (markt)
Refactor the fix for 52184 to correct two issues (a
fix missing class and incorrect class/method names) when
using the extras logging packages. (markt)
52444: Only load classes during HandlesTypes
fix processing if the class is a match. Previously,
every class in the web application was loaded
regardless of whether it was a match or not. (markt)
fix 52488: Correct typo: exipre -> expire. (markt)
add Add a unit test for SSO authentication. Patch
provided by Brian Burch. (markt)
52511: Correct regression in the fix for 51741 that
fix caused a harmless exception to be logged when
scanning for annotations and WEB-INF/classes did not
exist. (markt)
code Refactor to remove a circular dependency between
org.apache.catalina and org.apache.naming. (markt)
Remove some initialisation code from the standard
code start process (i.e. via the scripts) that was
intended for embedding but is not required when
performing a standard start.(markt)
Add new method to MBeanFactory that allows any Valve
add to be created and deprecate the methods to create
specific Valves. (markt)
add Partial sync of MIME type mapping with mime.types
from the Apache web server. (rjung)
52577: Fix a regression in the fix for 52328.
fix Prevent output truncation when reset() is called on
a response. (mark)
52586: Remove an old and now unnecessary hack that

when forwarding to an error page. (markt)
52587: Ensure that if it is necessary to fall back
fix to the default NullRealm, the NullRealm instance is
created early enough for it to be correctly
initialised. (markt)
fix Fix millisecond output in AccessLogValve when using
a SimpleDateFormat based time pattern. (rjung)
52591: When dumping MBean data, skip attributes
fix where getters throw UnsupportedOperationException.

extensions. (markt)
Correct a threading issue in the generation of the
list of standard authenticators during Context
fix initialization that could lead to a web application
failing to start if Contexts were started in
parallel. (markt)
52669: Correct regression that broke annotation
processing in /WEB-INF/classes for web applications
fix deployed as WARs, packageless classes and some
embedding scenarios. The regression was introduced
by the invalid assumptions made in the fix for
51741. (markt)
fix 52671: When dumping MBean data, skip attributes
