<p>
Tomcat can use the <a href="http://apr.apache.org/">Apache Portable Runtime</a> to
provide superior scalability, performance, and better integration with native server
technologies. The Apache Portable Runtime is a highly portable library that is at
the heart of Apache HTTP Server 2.x. APR has many uses, including access to advanced IO
functionality (such as sendfile, epoll and OpenSSL), OS level functionality (random number
generation, system status, etc), and native process handling (shared memory, NT
pipes and Unix sockets).
</p>
<p>
These features allows making Tomcat a general purpose webserver, will enable much better
integration with other native web technologies, and overall make Java much more viable as
a full fledged webserver platform rather than simply a backend focused technology.

OpenSSL and APR. It can be downloaded from <a href="http://tomcat.heanet.ie/native/">here</a>
as 32bit or AMD x86-64 binaries.
In security conscious production environments, it is recommended to use separate shared dlls
for OpenSSL, APR, and libtcnative-1, and update them as needed according to security bulletins.

Most Linux distributions will ship packages for APR and OpenSSL. The JNI wrapper (libtcnative) will
then have to be compiled. It depends on APR, OpenSSL, and the Java headers.
</p>
<p>
Requirements:
<ul>
<li>APR 1.1+ development headers (libapr1-dev package)</li>
<li>OpenSSL 0.9.7+ development headers (libssl-dev package)</li>
<li>JNI headers from Java compatible JDK 1.4+</li>
<li>GNU development environment (gcc, make)</li>
</ul>
</p>
<p>
The wrapper library sources are located in the Tomcat binary bundle, in the
<code>bin/tomcat-native.tar.gz</code> archive.
Once the build environment is installed and the source archive is extracted, the wrapper library
can be compiled using (from the folder containing the configure script):

Once the libraries are properly installed and available to Java (if loading fails, the library path

is similar to the regular connectors, but have a few extra attributes which are used to configure
APR components. Note that the defaults should be well tuned for most use cases, and additional
tweaking shouldn't be required.

When APR is enabled, the following features are also enabled in Tomcat:

random number generation using a configured entropy)</li>
