• May 21, 2000 v0.21c : add zip and jar support for servlets. Now you can zip or jar your servlet classes together (for one servlet with mutiple classes only).
  Note: The zip or jar file name must be the exact same of your servlet name.
• May 23, 2000 v0.29 : fix problem with getRealPath and getPathInfo.
• May 25, 2000 v0.30a : add Vritual path support, change servlet tag to /servlet/ to ensure compatiblity with other servers
• Oct 18, 2000 v0.30c : added enhanced logging support
• Nov 07, 2000 v0.30d : added HTTPBACKLOG and HTTPSRVADDR in jzHttpSrv.properties file for back log and server ip address support
• Nov 11, 2000 v0.41 : added support for auto and manu servlet unload, reload. Fix servlet include and forward so they will accept servlet, CGI and html requests (function just as the request is from client). Fixed session handling. Also some optimizations.
• Nov 12, 2000 0.50 add ERRORRPTSERVLETNAME for jzHttpSrv.properties, with attribute "ExceptionMsg"-> error message of type String and attribute "ExceptionObj" --> of type Exception
• Nov 16, 2000 0.62 add support for gnujsp, more optimizations
• Nov 19, 2000 0.70a fix problem with MS JVM jview on POST.
• Nov 22, 2000 0.72 only one class loader will be used for a class of same name, even if they are in different jar files.
• Dec 05, 2000 0.74 Added cache support, HTTPMAXCACHESIZE (bytes) HTTPCACHEORGINTVAL (seconds) in jzHttpSrv.properties
• Dec 06, 2000 0.75 Added support to clear out all sessions. This is needed if you want to re-load a class with out shutting down the server while the class is been added as a session object. Although the server supports auto reload, it can't track all classes been used by session or by other servlets. To make sure the reload is OK, do unloadServlets and clearSessions in the command line.
• Dec 22, 2000 0.76 Add support on session for browsers that don't support cookies. Just pass the session id as a POST parameter or append it to URL with name "BajieHTTPSessionTAG". See serlets/test/NoCookieSession.java for example

• Warning: There is a security bug in CGI processing in version 0.78a and earlier. Erick Lee and Joe Testa has found them. Although the server checks for ../ in pathes, the CGI handler in version 0.78 and earlier won't. So a hacker can use the upload utility upload a CGI script and use the CGI handler to execute it. The problem has been fixed.
• Feb 06, 2001 0.81 security fix. Check if cgi script exists before execute.

• Jul 29, 2002 0.95zvd Security fix. Fix bug that append '/' to request for jsp file and the source will be shown. This bug is caused by java.io.File() treat filename.txt/ the same as filename.txt.
