Hi all,
I need to have my tomcat servers to broadcast their state (custom
information) in order for them to collaborate.
I look into the cluster code, org.apache.catalina.cluster.mcast.* it a
good example of what I need : send a multicast message each X seconds and
keep a member list with their public info.
My problem is to fin a way to starts MY protocol endpoint when Tomcat
boots. I don't want to put the code in my webApp, since I can have
several webapps on the same server.
I looked into server.xml to find a way to starts it... I tought Connector
would be suitable for my needs but it seems strictly related to HTTP
request handling.
In theory, you can write a ProtocolHandler for any protocol you like and
plug it into the Connector. However, you are right that this is for Request
processing.
Is server.xml supports a custom protocol Handler? For what I looked it
seem to be predefined connector one for HTTP, HTTPS and AJP/1.3.
If it possible in some way to hook by there I can live whith the fact
that is not the way that supposed to be used :-)
<Connector port="8080" maxHttpHeaderSize="8192"
maxThreads="150" minSpareThreads="25" maxSpareThreads="75"
enableLookups="false" redirectPort="8443" acceptCount="100"
connectionTimeout="20000" disableUploadTimeout="true" />
<Connector port="8009"
enableLookups="false" redirectPort="8443"
protocol="AJP/1.3" />
You could take a look at Tribes (container/modules/groupcom in the 5.5.17+
source distro/SVN co). It's still a work-in-progress, but it may let you do
what you want.
Thanks for the info I'll look into it!
Best Regards

I hope to find a way without changing the tomcat code base.
Thanks for your help.
Best Regards
