Forward After response.getOutputStream

[Mike Darretta <mi...@metnet.navy.mil>]

Hi again.

I posted a similar question yesterday...thought I'd try again.

Is there a good way to forward a response after calling 
response.getOutputStream()? I've done a lot of web searching, and find 
the question asked many times. Yet, I've been unsuccessful (or simply 
dense) in finding a suitable answer. Any assistance is appreciated.

Thanks in advance!
Mike

I think your answer suffices for this time, but my original objective 
was to:

(1) Execute a download of an output stream for a file built on the fly
(2) Forward to another page indicating the download succeded.

P.S. Thanks for the posting advice...I thought I was posting to the 
entire list.

Perhaps you posted that one in the middle of another thread as well? 
Make sure you post new threads as fresh messages, not replies to 
unrelated messages, to make sure they get seen by as many people as 
possible.

No, that's prohibited. Iff the response is buffered you *might* be able 
to reset the output stream and do a forward, but really the solution is 
not to write to the output stream until you know you don't need to do a 
forward.

What are you trying to achieve that's requiring this?
