This way you gain all non-Java-programmers to use Tomcat and create server applications in their programming languages of choice. Targeting javax.script languages any such language could be then used, cf. [1]. It seems that it is still the case that PHP is predominately used for server pages. In the case of Microsoft developed software cf. ASP.NET [2] which allows for using any of the .NET languages [3], like VB.NET, C#, JScript.NET et.al. So with other words, the idea is to make Apache Tomcat a friendly host for all those programmers who do not program in Java, but rather in one of the JVM/javax.script languages, putting it again on par with Microsoft's solution if not allowing for surpassing it! :) ---rony [1] "List of JVM languages" (incomplete list): <https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_JVM_languages> [2] "ASP.NET": <https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ASP.NET> [3] "List of CLI languages": <https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_CLI_languages> > On 10/8/2019 9:11 AM, Rony G.
