Apache Tomcat Native Library What is it? ----------- The Apache Tomcat Native Library provides portable API for features not found in contemporary JDK's. It uses Apache Portable Runtime as operating system abstraction layer and OpenSSL for SSL networking and allows optimal performance in production environments. Licensing --------- Please see the file called LICENSE. The Latest Version ------------------ Details of the latest version can be found on the Apache Tomcat project page under http://tomcat.apache.org/. Documentation ------------- The documentation available as of the date of this release is included in HTML format in the docs directory. The most up-to-date documentation can be found at http://tomcat.apache.org/tomcat-7.0-doc/apr.html. Buliding -------- To build the Java API > ant To build the native part see native/BUILDING Running the examples -------------------- Before running the examples you may have to set LD_LIBRARY_PATH, something like LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/opt/SMAWoIS/openssl/lib; export LD_LIBRARY_PATH 1 - echo: (port in examples/org/apache/tomcat/jni/Echo.properties). ant echo-example 2 - ssl server: (see parameters in ./examples/org/apache/tomcat/jni/SSL.properties) The certificate and key should be in dist/classes/examples. ant server-example Cryptographic Software Notice ----------------------------- This distribution may include software that has been designed for use with cryptographic software.
