Tomcat 3.2 & JAXP (use to be Tomcat 3.2)

["Roytman, Alex" <ro...@peacetech.com>]

Hi Nacho,
You mentioned that v3.2 use the latest JAXP technologies. I was able to
start Tomcat with Xerces 1.1.2 instead of Sun's parser.jar just fine but it
seems to me there are several places in JSP compiler where Sun's classes are
used explicitly so it would not work without it. Could you please comment on
it.

Thank you

Alex

in Brief:

- Speed up things, this in a non measured feeling, i've heard from
people stating a overall 30% speed up.
- Much more improved overall security improved classloaders, and Java2
security working, better implementation of the security as stated in the
Servlet & JSP Spec including:

	- basic authentication.
	- digest authentication.
	- experimental form-based login.
	- JSSE.
	- JDBCRealm to retrieve users and roles from a Database.

- Much better integration into Apache ( from v 1.3.12 to v2.0Beta) ,
IIS, NES and perhaps AOLServer ( not sure about this last minute
addition )
- Overall improvements toward a better i18n of the entire tomcat.
- Better startup procedures for Win32 boxes.
- Use of the lastest JAXP technologies.
- Many bugs.

I dont remember more, thi is only a little portion of the overall
improvements made to this version, are here if anybody remembers
more....

Saludos ,
Ignacio J. Ortega
