Regular Expression Extractor for Sampler Result (NOT Response Dat a)

["Casadonte, Joe" <JC...@glog.com>]

Is it possible to use the regex extractor post processor on the HTTP Headers
sent back?  We have this client sub-session thing that is given in a
redirect.  My call to http://qaserver/servlets/foo.bar.MyServlet will give
the following Sampler Result

Load time: 0
HTTP response code: 302
HTTP response message: null

HTTP response headers:
HTTP/1.1 302
Date: Wed, 26 May 2004 18:43:21 GMT
Server: Apache
Set-Cookie: JSESSIONID=2FB5602B8EB0AF26123E8486A39A7360; Path=/
Expires: -1
Location: http://qaserver/servlets/1085597001898/foo.bar.MyServlet
Content-Length: 0
Vary: Accept-Encoding,User-Agent
Keep-Alive: timeout=15, max=97
Connection: Keep-Alive
Content-Type: text/html; charset=utf-8

I need to capture '1085597001898' and use it in the URL of subsequent
samplers.  A second call to http://qaserver/servlets/foo.bar.MyServlet will
result in a different sub-session ID, so I don't think I can use URL
re-writing.  Or if I can I don't understand how to do it.

I tried setting RegexExtractor.useHeaders=true in jmeter.properties, but
that didn't seem to help, and I couldn't use that in a general context
anyway, as it would apply to ALL regex extractors (there really needs to be
a way to say for an individual regex extractor, whether or not to look at
the headers).
