Professional Apache Tocat 6: How to replace former class ValveBase

[ludoviko azuaje]

Hy,

We have an intranet -based on apache tomcat 5.0- that uses the class org.apache.catalina.valves.ValveBase.

This classs is usefull for capturing authentication values entered by the user when the user logs in.

I wonder if your book explains any class or funcionality that replace the
org.apache.catalina.valves.ValveBase from former versions.

thanks.

Writing valves in Tomcat is essentially the same as before. Not much has changed. The book does not cover coding your own valves, but more of how to use them.
