That would be me, and I am doing what I can when I can. Although I |
8 |
should be doing more ;) Kinda in a holding pattern till the migration is |

completed. Since I am pretty sure ebuilds will have to be tweaked. |

It's in overlay, or latest version. Ebuild works, and does what the |
15 |
current mod_jk one does. tomcat 5.5 and mod_jk in experimental overlay |
16 |
should be good to go for installation and use. |

I did start adding support to mod_jk's ebuild to compile the jni stuff. |
19 |
Basically I am waiting on the merge stuff to finish, as it may have some |
20 |
deps there. Not sure. Part of it was where to install the jni stuff. In |
21 |
jdk home? In apache modules dir? In /usr/lib? If I should use current so |
22 |
call to do that or new java one. |
23 |
|
24 |
Any input, comments, feedback, etc there and I can finish that off. Was |
25 |
going to compile/install the jni stuff with the Java use flag or etc. |
26 |
Not sure there. JNI compile support is in ebuild, install is not. |
