Re: tomcat vs. enhydra

David,

I still don't exactly get your point.  I happen to use Enhydra (*with*
Tomcat) and its presentation objects; I find it far superior to using a set
of plain servlets - if that's what you mean by "Tomcat".

And, yes, a number of features that are provided by Enhydra have
subsequently been included in Tomcat (such as session management).  In those
cases, I also tend to use the Enhydra-based features, mainly because I have
more direct control over their behavior.

However, it might be more useful if you would list the specific features of
interest to you that were originally provided exclusively by Enhydra that
are not offered by Tomcat (other than session management, discussed above).
That way you might get a better response (at least from me).

Regards,

Terry

PS: As you probably recall from our past dialogue, however, I do not use
XMLC.
