Although bound to the APache module system, this is another technology that should be considered. How successful is servlet++?
Have any other open source C++ web frameworks been successful or proven the performance/scalability questions?
I am familiar with Servlet++.
The only other C++ servlet engines I am familiar with are
the C++ Servlet Environment (CSE) project hosted at http://stud3.tuwien.ac.at/~e9626231/cse/ and RogueWave's nonfree Bobcat.
As far as the performance/scalability questions, I have been quite impressed with James Hu's work with the Adaptive Communications Environment (now temporarily hosted at http://althusius.net/JAWS/\).
JAWS is a web server framework designed from the ground up for designing web servers with heavy payloads. We hope to utilize this framework with Warp++, but first use it to design a servlet engine that can be used in stand-alone (like Tomcat) or with Apache.
Warp++ is not JUST about a servlet engine. It is about developing C++ tools for web programming.
Given this, we will need to start looking at web services and XML as well.
