How to configure cache-control in Tomcat

[Alexander Wolff <al...@gmail.com>]

I would like to set in a Web-app that all static resources (images, css,
js..) are cached in browser by 10 minutes
(including in the HTTP Header response something like this: "Cache-Control:
max-age=600)

some idea how to configure cache-control in Tomcat?

thanks in advance,
Alexander

you can't controle the headers in tomcat (and this is where you
specify things as cache-control in http-protocol).

either your web-app has to modify the http-response-header, our you
can write a filter. a filter is specified by the
servlet-specification, thus tomcat supports ist.

more info on filters:
