Writing to HttpServletRequest
I have kind of a wierd problem and I'd like to know if I'm missing
something.
I'm trying to get an XML-RPC solution working through a servlet. The way
the XML-RPC works is by reading the inputstream of HttpServletRequest.
However, from ServletTestCase I can't see a way to actually WRITE stuff to
the inputstream. Read stuff, sure. Add headers, cookies, attributes, you
name it, sure. But how do I actually stuff real content into the POST
request?
Will.

Javadoc generation (WAS RE: Writing to HttpServletRequest)
Posted by Vincent Massol <vm...@octo.com>.
I have corrected the problem of javadoc generation :
"corrected problem with javadoc failing because of Aspect. Now using
ajdoc Ant task which understands Aspects. However, the result is not as
nice as javadoc (but it should be !) and I have submitted a bug report
to the AspectJ.org team."
So next time a valid nightly build happens, you'll get the javadoc ... I
have noticed that the Cactus build has been failing for 2 days now and
am trying to fix that ASAP.
Thanks

Hmmm, we should probably build the javadocs along with the new version.
In the meantime Will, have a look at the actual source. the javadocs are
there too, and plus the source documents itself even more thoroughly than
any external doc. I don't mean this in an arrogant way--rather I love Open
Source and I think code makes great docs.
Cheers,
Nick
P.S. It's worth checking out AspectJ too, I only say that because it's
really cool.

I'm using 23-1.2... I did a find through the sample source code and couldn't
find UserData anywhere...
What are my options?

RE: Writing to HttpServletRequest
Posted by Vincent Massol <vm...@octo.com>.
Will,
Here is an example (from the sample application unit tests) :
/**
* Verify that we can send arbitrary data in the request body.
*
* @param theRequest the request object that serves to initialize
the
* HTTP connection to the server redirector.
*/
public void beginSendUserData(WebRequest theRequest)
{
ByteArrayInputStream bais = new ByteArrayInputStream(
"<data>some data to send in the body</data>".getBytes());
theRequest.setUserData(bais);
theRequest.setContentType("text/xml");
}
/**
* Verify that we can send arbitrary data in the request body.
*/
public void testSendUserData() throws Exception
{
String buffer;
StringBuffer body = new StringBuffer();
BufferedReader reader = request.getReader();
while ((buffer = reader.readLine()) != null) {
body.append(buffer);
}
assertEquals("<data>some data to send in the body</data>",
body.toString());
assertEquals("text/xml", request.getContentType());
}
You can replace getReader() by getInputStream().
Hope it helps
