Various people have suggested alternative environments including fastcgi-java as well as the javasoft jeeves servlets which I forgot to mention in my original mail. I guess this brings up an intersesting point. There are actually a few separate questions to ask? 1. is there already an httpd-independent or standard in-process server-side java environment? 2. since there appears to be that there is no httpd-independent or standard in-process server-side java environment, is there one we can adapt to provide this function? 3. if each existing model is too loyal (proprietary) to a particular httpd implementation or too difficult to port to all the platforms (including nt and macintosh os's and the netscape and iis webservers) then can we define a standard interface that would a. allow code sharing among the various server-side java developers around the net analogous to the cgi/perl script sharing? b. facilitate writin code which maps our new interface to the proprietary java server apis in the way that database vendors provide odbc drivers Is anyone interested in such a project? -Alex- _____________________________________________________________________________ S.
