Compatibility of gRPC with Java web servers (Tomcat, Jetty, etc.)

[warren....@gmail.com]

We have an existing Java servlet based application that needs to be supported on a 

wide variety of web application containers (Tomcat, JBoss, Jetty, Weblogic, etc.)

If we add gRPC server support to the application, are we going to run into issues on

with those containers?  e.g. classloader problems?  What are the considerations that

we need to be aware of?

Thanks

Currently the GRPC server won't port share with your servlet engine which may or may not be a consideration for you. GRPC does not use classloader magic so you're unlikely to have issues there. We require a specific version of Netty so if you have some other library using Netty you might have a library version conflict but I would be surprised. None of the servlet engines you mentioned are dependent on Netty I believe.
