Tom Fennelly updated JBESB-2471:
--------------------------------

    Summary: Rearrange http-gateway to eliminate low level tomcat/jbossweb/coyote integration code  (was: Rearrange http-gateway to eliminate low level tom/jbossweb/coyote integration code)


I spent the last week or so working on doing the http-gateway via sub deployments of the main ESB deployment.  So basically, all the ESB is doing is creating a .war archive for each http bus and then deploying these as sub deployments of the ESB deployment.  It greatly simplifies the integration.

> The new Http Gateway uses low level tomcat APIs to perform the integration.  This is quite complex and we feel may be quite brittle wrt changes in tomcat going forward.  Maintaining this would be probably be a bit of nightmare.  It's not a reflection on the integration code  in the gateway.  IMO, tomcat is simply not designed to be embeddable, so no matter what, the code is going to be complex and quite difficult to validate.
