Name : tomcat-native Product : Fedora EPEL 5 Version : 1.1.18 Release : 1.el5 URL : http://tomcat.apache.org/tomcat-6.0-doc/apr.html Summary : Tomcat native library Description : Tomcat can use the Apache Portable Runtime 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). This package contains the Tomcat native library which provides support for using APR in Tomcat.
