Re: GWT and Comet

I don't think your getting dozens of dependencies from atmosphere.  If you have a maven build...atmosphere just has two GWT dependencies you need to specify, with all transitive dependencies its about 7-8 jars but you could exclude container specific jars if you wanted.

Also you don't need to use maven to use atmosphere...you can add them manually if you prefer.

Hi,

I want my server to send events to clients.

It is very important to me to minimize the changes to my project, i. e. the best case would be a jar file and some classes, not a large framework with a lot of other functionality I do not need.

I spent some time now trying to get atmosphere work within my environment, but I am not so happy withit: dozens of atmosphere-*.jar files, the need to use maven to get it running, and other things.

Now I came across Tomcat's comet support:

One jar file (catalina.jar) and a few classes (CometProcessor, ...).

It would be fine if I can use it for my purposes.

Question:

Are there serious drawbacks when using this solution?

Where can I find a minimal example?

Thanks!
