I couldn't figure out why the SnoopServlet.java that comes with
Tomcat 3.2.1 doesn't compile. The compiler complains about
that the parameter "context", which is a ServletContext, doesn't
have a method "getInitParameterNames()", among other things.
I have also tried to directly call the SnoopServlet.class that
comes together with Tomcat3.2.1, then it gives me an Error 500
message. Would any kind soul please help me out? I am enclosing
the SnoopServlet.java as follow:
/* $Id: SnoopServlet.java,v 1.3 1999/10/15 21:31:49 duncan Exp $

*/
import java.io.IOException;
import java.io.PrintWriter;
import java.util.Enumeration;

The only possibility I can think of is that you have an old JSDK jar file somewhere on your system that the compiler is finding first. I wasted days on a bizarre error message like this for that reason.
