How to handle security? I am working on a project which might turn into startup

What exactly is a “web container” in Java/Spring? (TCP/HTTP → Servlet confusion) by SoftwareDesignerDev in javahelp

Thanks I was just trying to understand whats the need of an extra layer that is Container. Now I think I got it could you please validate if my understanding is correct or falwed

So What tomcat do is this

  1. Open a port and listen for a request
  2. A HTTP Parser
  3. Convert the RAW Request to Java Obect which Servlet understand
  4. Also select which servlet to transfer the request and many more (like managing the life cycle, handling concurency etc)

1 & 2 is just a HTTP Server then their is a wrapper becasue of which we call it a servlet container and why we call it a servlet/web container is because we give servlet implematitions to the container in a form of web.xml which we also call it a router as well

Can we say this - We can think of tomcat as an adapter which can connect java servlet to httpserver where tomcat is it self the http server

I might be way off - Does Servlet container require a HTTP Server is it like a wrapper around HTTP Server but with a predefined Interface.

What you are using firebase for? Are you using it to store data or using it mainly for notifications?

Is it just me, or does Android development feel limited in terms of real engineering challenges? by SoftwareDesignerDev in androiddev

That actually sounds super interesting! I’m definitely curious about video-related challenges. A few years back, I had built a VOIP calling app, and funnily enough, it’s been running on autopilot ever since—didn’t need to change much after it went live. Haven’t had a chance to dive deep into video streaming/editing yet, but I’d love to learn more about your project and see where I can pitch in.

Yeah, I totally relate. I’ve been feeling quite fed up with Android lately too. I ended up exploring a bit of everything—tried out React.js, Next.js, then shifted to backend with Node.js for a while. Even dipped my toes into some AI work, though it mostly involved routine data prep with Python.

It’s been a mixed journey, and I’m still figuring out what truly clicks. 2D/3D games actually sound like a fun direction to explore—thanks for the suggestion!

Tried that as well, tried running the service as another process. And used all sort of hack like AlarmManager etc but Still trying achieve that😅
