The default build target creates an "unpacked" directory structure in
"../build/tomcat". If you want a distribution build (i.e. like the ones
you can
download), do this instead:
./build.sh dist <-- Unix
build dist <-- Windows
and the results will be placed in "../dist/tomcat".

The "proposals/catalina" directory is a completely separate code base
that will
be proposed in the future to become the servlet container in Tomcat
4.0. Ignore
it for now if you are interested in Tomcat 3.2.
Other than that, the best way to learn how the source is organized is to
become
familiar with the Ant tool, and be able to at least read the "build.xml"
script. Then you will get a good feel for where things are compiled
from, and
where they end up. I cannot imagine that it would be particularly easy
to adapt
the existing build process to an IDE tool -- you might be better off
creating a
custom build target in build.xml that creates what you want, and then
importing
the resulting JAR file.
By the way, built-in support for SSL is already possible -- example
configuration is commented out in $TOMCAT_HOME/conf/server.xml.

3.2b2 already has SSL capability.
Check server.xml for more details.

SSL and Tomcat
Posted by Derek DeMoro <dd...@home.com>.
Hello All,
I have a question about tomcats use of JSSE. Are we going to have the
ability to assign ssl
to specific contexts inside the Server.xml file?
Thank You,

I should have been more specific -- SSL support is documented in the server.xml
file in Tomcat 3.2b2. There is a section of commented out text in the standard
"server.xml" file that starts "Uncomment this for SSL support."

This is one way to do it. Be sure you set the "tomcat.home" property to point
at your TOMCAT_HOME directory, if you want to use relative pathnames. What you
are essentially trying to do is emulate what the "tomcat.sh" script does to set
up the environment in which Tomcat runs.
Another approach is to look at the org.apache.tomcat.startup.EmbededTomcat (sic)
class, which can give you a little more programmatic control over what gets
configured. Using this approach, you would essentially be replacing server.xml
with hard coded instantiations of the appropriate connectors, interceptors, and
so on.

Hello Mr. McClanahan and thanks for your very informative answer.
I'm sorry to bother you again with this, I realize you must be a very busy
guy so I'll try to keep this as short as possible.
I've looked at the server.xml file and I do not find anything that could
possibly relate to SSL support for the internal web browser in tomcat. If
you could give me some more information about that I would greatly
appreciate it. I'll paste my server.xml file in here at the end of this
message.
Also I was wondering how it would go when I need to integrate this into
another application... so that when that application starts up the webserver
(with SSL support) also starts up and everything is set. Would I simply do
the following in code:
try
{
Tomcat tomcat=new Tomcat();
tomcat.execute( args );
}
catch(Exception ex)
{
System.out.println(sm.getString("tomcat.fatal") + ex );
ex.printStackTrace();
}
(Taken directly from Tomcat.java)
Would that then start up an SSL web server... given, of course, that my
server.xml file is correct?
I hope I'm not bothering you too much and I hope you can give me an answer
to these two questions I have.
Thank you...
Kind regards from Iceland, Stefan Freyr Stefansson.
p.s. here's the server.xml file I have:

module in Tomcat (example: ContextManager) or we can have
one for Servlets and one for Jasper, or we can just have
one tomcat.log for both Servlet and Jasper.
If you omit "path" there, then stderr should be used.
verbosityLevel values can be:
FATAL
ERROR
WARNING

DEBUG
-->
<Logger name="tc_log"
path="logs/tomcat.log"
customOutput="yes" />
<Logger name="servlet_log"
path="logs/servlet.log"

<Logger name="JASPER_LOG"
path="logs/jasper.log"
verbosityLevel = "INFORMATION" />
<!-- Add "home" attribute if you want tomcat to be based on a different

"home" is used to create work and to read webapps, but not for libs
