Tomcat 5.5 in JBoss

[youngm]

Is there any kind of timeline of when we can expect some kind of preliminary Tomcat 5.5 support in JBoss? Assuming integration is planned will we see it in 3.2.x and 4.x or will it only be available in 4.x?

Thanks,
Mike

Not until the Jan timeframe in a 4.0.2 release. The plans for integration into 3.2.x are undefined currently.

So now that JBoss 4.0.1 is out is it possible to do a 4.0 branch build with tomcat 55 as the web container? I'd be more than happy to help test the tomcat 55 integration that will be going into 4.0.2 if I only had a little direction on how to do a build with tomcat 55.

There is a task for it:
http://jira.jboss.com/jira/browse/JBAS-26

The current jboss-head/tomcat module needs to be branched for 4.0 and the thirdparty module alias updated to use the tomcat 5.5 jars.

Thanks, I'll anxiously watch that task for updates. :)
