Downloading Support Libraries

Tomcat depends on a rather large number of special APIs, and the JAR files for each of them must be present where the Tomcat build can find them. To be completely accurate, some of these libraries are optional, but you should include all of them so that you can build a complete release. Note that you do not have to download all these jars individually; you can run this command from within the tc6.0.x directory where the top-level build.xml file resides:

$ ant download
Buildfile: build.xml

download:

setproxy:

testexist:
     [echo] Testing  for /home/jbrittain/temp/apache-tomcat-6.0.15-src/lib/tomcat-nati
ve-1.1.8/tomcat-native.tar.gz
downloadfile:
    [mkdir] Created dir: /home/jbrittain/temp/apache-tomcat-6.0.15-src/lib/tomcat-nati
ve-1.1.8
      [get] Getting: http://archive.apache.org/dist/tomcat/tomcat-connectors/native/to
mcat-native-1.1.8-src.tar.gz
      [get] To: /home/jbrittain/temp/apache-tomcat-6.0.15-src/lib/tomcat-native-1.1.8/
tomcat-native.tar.gz
... and so on ...

Once this is done, you should be ready to build Tomcat.
