No Tomcat V6 advanced IO in JbossAS 4.2.3.GA?

[uijltje]

Hi,

From documentation I understand that Tomcat V6... is bundled with JBoss Application Server V4.2.3.GA.

However, I cannot find something like "advanced IO"/Comet/Bayeux, which is part of Tomcat V6.

Am I missing something??

TIA,
Tom.

Look to http://www.jboss.org/file-access/default/members/jbossweb/freezone/docs/2.1.2/aio.html

Thanks for that, I am familiar with that link.

However, JBossWeb is a standalone distribution/server, not integrated with JBossAS (which I need/want).

I also don't see any hints either on how to integrate the two (except for the native-bit, which succeeded. But I also want the advanced IO...).

And, just to satisfy my own curiosity: why is the Apache-code duplicated in this project?

TIA,
Tom.

JBossWeb is in JBossAS, but you need to use the 5.x version to have the advanced IO.

JBossWeb is based on Tomcat but it not Tomcat.

Thanks for the info.

So Tomcat V6.x (with the advanced IO) is not in JBossAS 4.2.x.
Contrary to what is specified in http://www.jboss.org/community/docs/DOC-12545 ?

Thanks.

It is not "Contrary"...

According to the http://www.jboss.org/community/docs/DOC-12545 as advanced IO has been included in JBossWEB 2.1.x, Advanced IO are only available in 5.0.x, 5.0.0 and higher version of AS.

Aha, forgive me my ignorance.

I somehow missed the information-bit about advanced IO being in JBossWeb 2.1+

Thanks for your time.

I am working on the doc so it should be more understandable soon.

Brilliant.

Gimme a shout if I can help in some way (proofread or whatever...).
