Reading the servlet input stream twice
Dear All,
I use Tomcat 4.1.xx
I am implementing page tracking on a project.
I am coming across a problem, when I want to write a copy of the parameters
or contents of a POST request to the database.
I have tried using HttpServletRequest.getInputStream () but this cleans out
the input stream and means that no parameters
or content is available to be passed on to the logic that processes the
parameters or post content.
Is there anyway of getting a copy of a POST request content without
cleaning out the input stream and stuffing up the suceeding logic?
Regards,
Phil Hewitt

Servlet Filter, maybe?
Aren't both POST and GET params available via request.getParameter()
or am I not correct?

The cleanest, most standards-compliant way of doing what you're asking is
through the HttpServletRequestWrapper.
Make sure you've duely considered QM's comments about the getParameter()
methods.
