3. On top of regular request/response. Almost everything related with auth,
pings, discovery, reconfiguration can be implemented by just using regular
Ajp13 requests - with a special URL. That is by far my favorite mechanism.
It also has the advantage that it can reuse other parts of tomcat - mapper, coyote actions, etc. I strongly believe that most features should be
implemented at this layer ( regardless of the request message or the wire protocol changes )
special URLs are by far the best mechanism?
the next simpson-episode should start with bart writing "special urls are by far the worst mechanism ever" to the board.
it's working around a missing feature - nothing more, nothing less. it's the worse method i could imagine.
your are talking about seomthing like /_ajp/config or somethin, right? what if this URL occurs within the users directory structure? using illegal URLs like _ajp/config could confuse other ajp-implementation that are not aware of such sh*t.
