Clean up Tomcat 4, 4.1, 5, and 5.5 ports.
These changes apply to all ports, unless mentioned otherwise: - Move jakarta-tomcat55 to tomcat55 (it is no longer a Jakarta project). [6] - Improve the tomcat55 rc script. Fix PID handling. Improve the shutdown process. Use USE_RC_SUBR to its full potential. [2] - Backport tomcat55 rc script to the other tomcat ports. This allows us to pass command line arguments to the JVM. Noted in UPDATING. [1], [3], [4] - Change ownership of installed files. All files are now installed with default uid/gid (root:wheel) except for those in the conf/, logs/, temp/ and work/ directories. [5] - No longer install tomcatXXctl binary. rc scripts are more flexible and can be reconfigured without recompiling. - Remove AUTO_START and STOP_TIMEOUT (replaced with rc tomcatXX_stop_timeout). - Remove a long list of sed expressions in favour of SUB_LIST. - Move pkg_{,de}install to files/pkg_{,de}install.in. Add them to SUB_FILES. Tidy up substitutions and remove hardcoded values. - Some nonfunctional tidying and removal of Makefile cruft. PR: ports/38018 [1], ports/38020 [2], ports/74344 [3], ports/75143 [4], ports/83434 [5], ports/92692 [6] Submitted by: Ari Suutari <ari.suutari@syncrontech.com> [1] [2], SimpleRezo Team <freebsd@simplerezo.com> [3], Anton Yudin <toha@toha.org.ua> [4], Jan Grant <jan.grant@bristol.ac.uk> [5], lawrance [6] Approved by: Kang Liu <liukang@cn.freebsd.org> (maintainer) [6] Maintainer timeouts on [1], [2], [3], [4], [5] Big thanks to: hq for the initial tomcat55 script jasonb on FreeNode #tomcat for packaging advice

+
+ The Tomcat ports listed above have been converted to use new-style
+ rc scripts. In order to enable Tomcat, you must add:
+
+ tomcat{4,41,5,55}_enable="YES"
+
+ to your rc.conf. Select the appropriate version number for your
+ installation. When shutting down, the rc scripts will kill the
+ Tomcat process after a default timeout of 10 seconds. This can be
+ changed by setting the tomcatXX_stop_timeout variable in rc.conf.
+
+ Tomcat 5.5 users please note that the rc variables have changed name
+ from jakarta_tomcat55_* to tomcat55_*.
+
+ The "tomcatctl" executable is no longer installed. Please use the
+ rc scripts to control tomcat instead.
