Thanks, Chris - that's along the lines of what we're planning to do Based on Mark's reply that JSR-356 should be in Tomcat 7 in early September, that should allow us to re-implement our server-side WS endpoints/handling against the JSR api - testing first against Tomcat 8 RC, then copying it back for use in Tomcat 7. -bob > -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- > Version: GnuPG v1.4.14 (Darwin) > Comment: GPGTools - http://gpgtools.org > Comment: Using GnuPG with Thunderbird - http://www.enigmail.net/ > > iQIcBAEBCAAGBQJSAsuYAAoJEBzwKT+lPKRY7AQQAItT/LwJF8iGtXc5PihltsKT > VrAUKdDB4PlQHdFicZQ08njIbTSJPkz9106Fr79vdJa0PKCkHmB1M+qDylTr1gk6 > L7yARvCh8DmSukX/TwOrufUegbE71i+eBHln23qBCSDu6nvAMKkCo8UWIj3cquO > D > a4bax0AYYNK83vaAjAGc16kmcz33L4mfMgSY5xynLwNsZJkBEoTInKprUKvLBiBr > 0bBF/O7oYvuZDxvCGgeGi90vpfEYfmujuHfrqa5ira+KVAcwBdDmgOS6nhmYn791 > 6Mj+m67Q9ygm32umpEqpgm9xI4a576w9av91+CiR1iBuEEDlDAEuM3XdJ1y0my > FZ > 8RyX0ldzc/Z9a75sMZlRyCSo0jUXZjsLvC7jCm8FMDcRT9sXqDIGR4gMglriEaJ1 > MhX8VZ/Ikd1dUVhPCLT02tJmneMZxYgSipGHjdnAQLhoOfedAnc2IHoIF7oVfDv1 > D8QXsAQCKY48f2CwlzTbYeLvwuq0GVIRVfn+WB4tq9luXA7vGOeEcqtssqQlTcCN > EE3Vm0hQOavh793l0FI2aNN/cbjYvyi5g6SQBnIwVkjW6MZ41VKfBsmx2+1osncl > +gij9KTMkMw5jhS4lb55Qb3AfdU9L9Z31NEM7c+GU2RBA7ddZ/93EdDXjbW/Rc3 > Y > EHO74vyNeSMZuP5j6JC7 > =tppT > -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- > > --------------------------------------------------------------------- > To unsubscribe, e-mail: users-unsubscr...@tomcat.apache.org > For additional commands, e-mail: users-h...@tomcat.apache.org
