We just updated to tomcat 7.0.52 using the JSR356 implementation for
websockets.  This implementation is using the annotated class method of
setting up the websocket server endpoint.

On a local install of the system (windows7) the tomcat lib directory
contains tomcat7-websocket.jar and websocket-api.jar, however I do not seem
to be getting those two files from apt-get install tomcat7.

We are using Chef to deploy to multiple instances to AWS and adding the
trust repo to apt to pull down ver 7.0.52 of Tomcat.

deb http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ trusty main

We are accessing our websocket server via https, not wss since we are using
AWS ELBs.

After spending a few hours trying to figure out why the connections were
returning 404 for the endpoint I realized the /usr/share/tomcat7/lib dir
was missing the websocket jars.

Is this working as intended?  Is there a separate apt pkg we can install to
get the proper jars for websocket or do we have to package these jars
ourselves?

Thanks for any help!
