Comment on Comparing Apache Tomcat and TomEE by David Blevins

Very excellent post! The mime types is an oversight, thanks for pointing that out!

Fully agree on #6. Library conflicts are likely to be the most common issue. Slf4j is probably going to be the most common offender. In the past people had issues with asm conflicts so we repackaged that code as org.apache.xbean.asm via the maven shade plugin. We can do that for slf4j or any other small library. It does complicate the build a bit, so we only do that once people report issues.

So note to all readers, if you do have a library conflict, please let us know!

Comment on Migrating from HttpClient 3.1 to HttpClient 4.0 by eyuzwa

@Triguna, you have to use the 4.0 lingo of “entities”. You need to basically create a list of name,value pairs. There’s more details in the link referenced in this post (the 4.0.3 Tutorial).

Here’s a snippet:
List formparams = new ArrayList();
formparams.add(new BasicNameValuePair(“param1″, “value1″));
formparams.add(new BasicNameValuePair(“param2″, “value2″));
UrlEncodedFormEntity entity = new UrlEncodedFormEntity(formparams, “UTF-8″);
HttpPost httppost = new HttpPost(“http://localhost/handler.do”);
httppost.setEntity(entity);

hth,
