[jboss-jira] [JBoss JIRA] Resolved: (JBWEB-178) Error in the Jboss Web FAQ for Tomcat release number based ?

[Remy Maucherat (JIRA)]

     [ https://jira.jboss.org/browse/JBWEB-178?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:all-tabpanel ]

Remy Maucherat resolved JBWEB-178.
----------------------------------

    Resolution: Out of Date


Relevant patches for fixes (and esp security ones) are ported from Tomcat to JBoss Web, and are then listed in the changelog. JBoss Web is API incompatible with Tomcat (which is also very API incompatible between versions 6 and 7). The "comet" API (renamed to "http event") is an obvious difference from Tomcat 6.

> In the Jboss Web FAQ at http://www.jboss.org/jbossweb/faq.html, 
> there is :
> "JBoss Web is based on Tomcat 6.0.13 and we have been porting the needed fixes for Tomcat to JBoss Web."
> but at
> http://docs.jboss.org/jbossweb/latest/changelog.html
> I saw that the latest patched Tomcat release used by Jboss is Tomcat 6.0.15.
> Then,  is JBoss Web based on Tomcat 6.0.13 or on Tomcat 6.0.15 ?
> It is very important for me to know this information because some software editors support only Tomcat and with a minimal release number for their applications.
