So, you want to use Tomcat as a TCP connection handler? Most of the Tomcat code is dedicated to servicing the HTTP services required by the servlet spec -- very little of it "merely" handles TCP connections. I'm not familiar with the internals of Tomcat (yet) but something like a ProtocolHandler would probably work, though you might end up writing a ton of code to meet Tomcat's requirements. You may find that writing your own connection management code is more straightforward and lightweight than using Tomcat as a container for something other than HTTP-based servlets. - -chris -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.10 (MingW32) Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - http://enigmail.mozdev.org/ iEYEARECAAYFAkz/0jcACgkQ9CaO5/Lv0PAEawCghCxix6MM++HjKTqs8q0V2QiN ND4AoJyRXeUNnr2VUaBm1G6B0NUfziFT =X2hB -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: users-unsubscr...@tomcat.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: users-h...@tomcat.apache.org
