SVG, servlet filters and interception

[Atle Prange <at...@businesscape.no>]

Hi,

i want to use svg in my webapp, since it makes it easy to create images 
on the fly.

My plan is to make t5 pages that output svg instead of html, which 
should be easy.

But alas svg is not as straigh forward as it should. Little browser 
support might force me to convert the svg to images on the server before 
they are streamed to the client. That also means that the image is 
fetched in a different request than the request for the page.

I also have to convert the response (using batik) to a png. Any ideas 
where i put the interceptor to achieve this?

Is it possible to use "normal" pages in request for i.e. images this way?
(That way i could also define svg images as background in css)

any help is greatly appreciated.

Hi,

Yes, it's possible to do this with regular pages. Simply return a 
StreamResponse with the right headers from onActivate. You'll have to 
handle caching etc. yourself, but it's not hard.
