JK2/Coyote Connector Testing Effort

["Anthony W. Marino" <an...@AWMObjects.com>]

(TC4.1.2/JK2/Apache2)

1) Is it required that for a mod_jk2.so build/distribution that the entire set 
of coyote jars also be distributed when the build is based on a new j-t-c 
download from cvs?  

2) Can Ant1.5b1 be used to build existing files?


Thank You,
Anthony

Now that's something that seems extremely interesting!

Ant is what I prefer to use, but the final goal is to make it easy for
people to build mod_jk - if ant gets in the way, you should use the 
makefiles and autoconf.

There is another project ( ant-contrib on sf.net ) doing tasks to compile 
C code with ant - the syntax is a bit different, but it could be used as 
well. After we're done with jk and this release, I'll spend some more time
with the tasks trying to integrate/merge with those - any help would be 
great.

The reason I'm interested in this - I think java is a more powerfull 
language than m4 and .sh, and it may be worth having a build system 
that most people can understand. I admit having troubles reading
the libtool code ( and I have some .sh experience ), and not liking 
m4 too much.

I'll be back in 2 days ( unfortunately :-), I'm visiting few friends 
on the east coast.

Costin,

I've experienced all kinds of build problems using "Ant" however it's what I 
prefer to use and I'll pass along the changes when finished.

Are you going to be gone for long???  Just have a good time, regardless of 
what/where!

Thank You and Have A Nice Evening!
Anthony

The C and java sides are independent of each other, you can use the C 
module with any version of tomcat from tomcat3.2 ( up to coyote ).

There are few build 'glitches' - I'll try to improve it as soon as 
I get back.

Any ant after 1.4 should work, as well as configure ( i.e. ant is not 
the only way to build jk ).

The current ant tasks for building C work reasonably well - and
I think it's a good idea ( for some reasons I prefer to write 
logic in java rather than .sh or m4 ). However libtool/configure/make
remain a solid solution.
