HTTP object creation when using connectors
If you plug Tomcat into another web server (for example IIS), does the WS
(after determining that the request is for a Tomcat servlet) give Tomcat the
HTTP request unchanged??
Or does the WS make native (C/C++) objects out of the HTTP request then send
it to Tomcat via some JNI processing?
Perhaps the HTTP request is left unchanged if it is an out of process
connection to Tomcat whereas it gets processed using JNI if it is an in
process set up?
Any ideas on this?
Thanks heaps.

The low-level details of the Ajp13 Protocol can be found at
http://jakarta.apache.org/tomcat/tomcat-4.1-doc/jk2/common/AJPv13.html.
The short answer is that the WS serializes the request to Tomcat, and
receives the serialized response.
