Is there an implementation of AJP protocole in Java ?

Question

From Apache, you can use the "mod_jk" module to send http requests to Tomcat using the "AJP" protocole, which is far more efficient that http itself.

I want to do the same, but from a Java program. I want to use "AJP" because of its good performances (and Tomcat is not bad after all).

Of course, "google is my friend" (but I didn't find what I was looking for).

So my question is :

Do someone know about a Java implementation of the client side of "AJP" ?

Answer 1

Whithout any real idea, but have you looked into Tomcat's source code, yet? Maybe Tomcat doesn't just implement the receiving end of AJP.

Answer 2

Doesn't the tomcat-ajp.jar present in %TOMCAT_HOME%/server/lib have the AJP implementation?
