jakarta-tomcat-connectors-jk2.0.4-win32-IIS.zip

README for JK2 -------------- JK2 is a refactoring of JK and is much more powerfull. Even if it works with Apache 1.3, JK2 has been developed with Apache 2.0 in mind, and is better suited for multi-threaded servers like IIS, NES/iPlanet. It can also be embeded in other applications and used from java. JK2 improves the modularity and has a better separation between protocol and physical layer. As such JK2 support fast unix-socket, and could be extended to support others communications channels. It is better suited for JNI and may use (in a future version) JDK 1.4 NIO. There is additional support for monitoring, similar with JMX in java. A module similar with mod_status is provided, and additional adapters can be used to interface and provide status and runtime configuration. The configuration has been changed to follow the component models. Multiple configuration sources can be supported ( in additon to file ) providing better integration with the embeding application. The config layer uses the management layer APIs and it can support persistence for changes done via runtime configuration. How to obtain the JK2 and Apache Portable Runtime sources: ---------------------------------------------------------- NOTE: If you downloaded a source distribution from our website or a mirror (the file is called jakarta-tomcat-connectors-jk2-X.X.X.src.tar.gz) you don't need to obtain any other file. Please follow this chapter only if you want to obtain the latest CVS version of the sources. Check out the module sources from CVS using the following commands: cvs -d :pserver:anoncvs@cvs.apache.org:/home/cvspublic login (Logging in to anoncvs@cvs.apache.org) CVS password: anoncvs cvs -d :pserver:anoncvs@cvs.apache.org:/home/cvspublic \ checkout jakarta-tomcat-connectors Once CVS downloads the jakarta-tomcat-connectors module sources, we need to download the APR (Apache Portable Runtime) sources. To do this simply use a release version of APR: - You can download it from http://www.apache.org/dist/apr/. - The file is called apr-X.X.X.tar.gz You will also need the APR-UTIL (a companion library to APR). To do this simply use a release version of APR: - You can download it from http://www.apache.org/dist/apr/. - The file is called apr-util-X.X.X.tar.gz When the APR sources are in place, we need to create the configure scripts. It is done by running the command: ./buildconf.sh WARNING: --------- The JK2 should be considered initial-release quality code. It has not been subjected to the same stresses on its stability and security that the mod_jk releases have enjoyed, so there is a greater possibility of undiscovered vulnerabilities to stability or security.
