## Package org.apache.catalina.valves Description

This package contains a variety of small Valve implementations that do not warrant being packaged separately. In addition, there is a convenience base class (`ValveBase`) that supports the usual mechanisms for including custom Valves into the corresponding Pipeline.

Other packages that include Valves include `org.apache.tomcat.logger` and `org.apache.tomcat.security`.
