Folks: Feedback is needed on a project I worked on to connect IIS to Tomcat. This is a replacement for the old ISAPI redirectors that have been used since early 2000.
Nonetheless, the new ones should work for Tomcat 5,6,7 and IIS 5.1,6,7,7.5 combinations. Looking for feedback (what works, what doesn't, bugs from this group). Connectors can be downloaded from: http://tomcatiis.riaforge.org/ Here are some general improvements with these connectors: • no ISAPI code • no IIS6 vestiges or backward compatibility elements needed on IIS7 • all managed code for using .net extensibility framework • works on IIS5.1, IIS6 and IIS7 • speed improvements • easier control on IIS side • no virtual directories and virtual mapping needed • configuration can be inherited to sub-sites and virtual sites • easy install/uninstall • support partial stream sending to browser (automatic flushing) with faster response to client • support both 32/64 bit of Windows with same process and files • transfer of all request headers • build in simple-security for web-administration pages • Works on Windows XP (IIS5.1) and above Thanks again, -Bilal
