Simon has the inside scoop on (what was) Professional JSP 2.0. He must have some good connections to get this info. I dig that Amazon is listing it and especially that I got mentioned as an Author! Hopefully they fix this little mishap and do an et. al. or something. I'd better do a screenshot so I can have proof that my name was listed at one point.
I decided to upgrade my Apache and Tomcat installations on my Red Hat 9 box this morning. In doing so, I found that no binary jk connectors existed for Apache 2.0.47 on Linux. So I built one, and updated my Apache 2.x + Tomcat 4.1.x Article for the latest and greatest versions. Also, when building Apache with SSL, I found that there were a bunch of symlinks I had to create for RH 9. So I updated my Apache + SSL Article as well. If I had the time/motivation, I'd port these to the wiki and the community could keep them up-to-date. Maybe when I'm really bored.
FYI - there's a patch for Tomcat 4.1.27 to fix the webapp reload bug. To install, download into your $CATALINA_HOME directory and execute:
tar xzf 4.1.27-hotfix-22096.tar.gz
Next week, David Gallardo (an Author of Eclipse in Action) will be doing a presentation at the Denver Java User Group. I'll be there for the JDOM presentation in the Basic Concepts group as well. There's a short review of Eclipse in Action vs. Java Developer's Guide To Eclipse over at JavaRanch.
... after reading both books in the past week, I come to the conclusion that the two books serve very different purposes. I would like to have them both on my desk.
