[5.0] Tester
I have put the tester back in activity for TC 5 (and it caught the
failure for error pages), but unfortunately there are a few limitations
caused by the HTTP client used (for example, if the status is 500, you
can't read the content). It would be a good idea IMO to switch to
commons-httpclient (which I'll do, but it's not a very high priority).
Comments ?

I had missed the executeSocket method. That's useful :)
Switching to HttpClient still makes sense IMO, but is not essential to
fix some tests.

Switching is fine if you want, but the existing tester does (or at least
it did) have a mode where it uses a low-level socket instead of
HttpURLConnection, and therefore doesn't give you the useless garbage on a
500. The trick is to set the "protocol" property to "HTTP/1.0" instead of
an empty string.

Actually, since it is a needed feature for spec compliance, and to
simplify things a little, it should be in "core", and I'll integrate the
code in StandardContextValve.
Similarly, the code in the ErrorDispatcherValve should be integrated in
StandardHostValve.
OTOH, the ErrorReportValve should stay as is as a Valve, as it is not
required for spec compliance, and it is valid to remove or replace it.
Comments ?

[5.0] Optimizing the core a bit more
Posted by Remy Maucherat <re...@apache.org>.
In an effort to tweak the core a bit more to simplify things:
- Remove ContainerBase.invoke: A Container always has a Pipeline
associated with it; as such, the Container interface should have a
getPipeline method, and this should be called instead. This will reduce
a bit the call stack.
- I noticed the RequestListenerValve was added twice to the pipeline
(using the tester). This doesn't seem right, obviously.
- The RequestListenerValve builds the list of the listeners it must
notify dynamically, on each request (twice for each request = lots of
useless instanceof). This should IMO be done statically in start (with
the array of listeners being cleared on stop).

The sad truth is that I'm lazy :)
I want to rewrite the minimum possible amount of code and fix the tests
which can't work with the JDK's HTTP client (ex: it returns 500 - TC 5
now restores the original error code; neat - but I still want to read
the entity body; the JDK then throws an exception to inform me I'm
stupid to attempt to do that; thanks Sun) :)

I don't have much experience using Latka either but it used HttpClient and
appeared to use an xml config file for all the tests. It also has the ability
to add your own condition classes too.
But it does appear dormant in commons. :(
+1 to using just HttpClient

Well, I don't know that component ;-)
There's an apparent problem with it, though: it's an alpha 1 release,
and doesn't seem to be evolving anymore (last release in 2001, so it's
likely not in sync with HttpClient). Any other ideas ?
I think the safest bet would be to adapt the TestClient class to use
HttpClient 2.0 b2.
