problem with Compression Filter

[Dimitri Valdin <di...@db.com>]

Hello (Amy),

I have found yet another problem with compression filter.
If jsp page uses include action:

        <jsp:include page="/pageToInclude.jsp" flush="true"/>

then a new request is send to server. The result will be compressed
and then compressed once again in the calling page, which make
the result look pretty ugly ;-)

I have found a pretty simple workaround of this problem.
Include action should be extended with parameter gzip:

        <jsp:include page="/pageToInclude.jsp" flush="true">
          <jsp:param name="gzip" value="false"/>
        </jsp:include>

Compression filter will check the request for this parameter
and decide if the page should be compressed or not:

            // Are we allowed to compress ?
            String s = (String) ((HttpServletRequest)request).getParameter("gzip");
            if ("false".equals(s)) {
                if (debug > 0) {
                    System.out.println("got parameter gzip=false --> don't compress, just chain filter");
                }
                chain.doFilter(request, response);
                return;
            }

I have attached the modified Files to this mail. A bit more debugging info
was added to CompressionResponseStream.

Let me know if you have better idea to solve the problem.

BTW, the problem 9434 seems also to be fixed with previous check in.

Regards,

Dmitri Valdin
