Tomcat 5.0.18 Released

Download or read the Release Notes. You know what bugs me about this release? The release notes suck! There's no changelog - what bugs got fixed, which ones didn't? Any new features? I suppose I could go crawling around their bug tracker and find out, but isn't this the kind of information you'd like to see with the release? Should I upgrade? Why should I upgrade - is something broke in 5.0.16 that's fixed in 5.0.18? Are there memory leaks that got fixed?

The only reason I develop on 4.1.29 these days is because my Remember Me feature works on 4.1.x, but not on 5.0.x. I could make it work on 5.0.x, but it wouldn't be as secure. I hope to implement Charles' recommended cookie strategy and then go for 5.0.x as my development platform, but that'll be a few more days.

On another note, I've implemented the Tomcat Ant tasks in AppFuse and I must say, these things are nice. The main advantage is speed, which all developers love.

There's quite a nice (if not obvious) change log at: http://jakarta.apache.org/tomcat/tomcat-5.0-doc/changelog.html You'll notice that while not /that/ much has happened in 5.0.18, version 5.0.17 (the unstable iteration) bought in a fair whack of bug fixes. Roberto

Alright, you got the Tomcat Ant tasks to work for you! I recall our discussions about these a few months back and you were having some difficulty. No doubt they were beta at the time, I am sure they have matured quite a bit since then. One of the biggest realities to accept when I switched to java development was having to "reload" the application to see the effects of my most recent changes in the model layer. With the inclusion of ant tasks for tomcat, it almost makes that step a forgotten past.
