tomcat-util.jar and catalina-util-xml.jar not found in tomcat 6.0
though they were in use in web-application developed on tomcat-5.x
Hi All,
The application I've been using was developed on tomcat-5.5.17 which
configures a customized NTLMRealm class in server.xml under it's realm tag.
The related jar for developing this customized realm bundled in a jar under
server/lib and this utilizes server/lib/(tomcat-util.jar and
catalina-util-xml.jar) files.
Now, this application requires upgrade to tomcat-6.0.16 which doesn't have
tomcat-util.jar and catalina-util-xml.jar under it's lib directory though
other jars from server/lib (5.x) are found under lib (6.x) directory.
My question are,
1. Are the classes from tomcat-util.jar and catalina-util-xml.jar are not
supposed to be used with application deployed on 6.x release OR If it is not
so where can I find these jars?
2. By using tomcat-util.jar and catalina-util-xml.jar from tomcat-5.x
release with tomcat-6.x, the application works fine. Is this advisable to
just copy the jars from a previous release (5.x) to some current release? or
this may cause any issues ?
I suppose though not the web-applications it self but the customization of
configuration of tomcat, say using own NTLMRealm may require these utility
jars.
I 've searched on this issue on many forums/groups but couldn't find the
reason why these jars are not bundled with tomcat-6.x release.
I would appreciate any answers/comments on this.
Thanks and Regards,
Harsh.

Those classes appear to have been part of Tomcat 4.0, last released
about 5.5 years ago. Might be time to think about modernization using
the current XML mechanisms that are part of a standard JRE.

Thanks Chuck, This was a useful reply for me.
Though I could not find tomcat-5.5.17/server/lib/catalina-util-xml.jar from
which org.apache.catalina.util.xml.XMLAction and XMLMapper classes are being
referred by one of my class.
By looking at the API docs of 6.0 release, I couldn't find package
org.apache.catalina.util.xml.
Should I look at some other package/jar for these classes?
Thanks and Regards,
Harsh.

The classes from tomcat-util.jar are now in tomcat-coyote.jar, at least
all the ones I spot checked.
There is no catalina-util-xml.jar in any 5.5 download that I can find,
so I have no idea where you might have gotten that one from.

Perhaps, but have you tested every possible execution path? I wouldn't
count on it.

Definitely not. Lots of things were restructured between 5.5 and 6.0,
so you're really asking for trouble by running blindly ahead. You need
to examine the 6.0 APIs and make sure your realm is still compatible
with them:
