[PATCH] Tomcat 3.2.1 Admin Context

[Oliver Szymanski <Ol...@bov.de>]

> Hello *,
> 
> i have found an error in the admin context of tomcat 3.2.3 and hopefully
> corrected it.
> 
> You can not use the function "view all contexts" because this
> functionality throws an error.
> 
> The problem is that the method  "public final static String
> URLDecode(String str)" in the class org.apache.tomcat.util.RequestUtil
> can't decode a string that contains the char "/".
> 
> But it is used in the class "ContextAdmin" of the admin context of tomcat
> 3 to decode the value of the property "work dir" from a context (line 122
> of the file "ContextAdmin.java"). This throws an exception, because of the
> reason this property is an directory path it certainly has "/" in it.
> 
> I have exchanged the line 76:
> v.addElement("WORK DIR: " +
> RequestUtil.URLDecode(context.getWorkDir().getName()));
> with
> v.addElement("WORK DIR: " +
> java.net.URLDecoder.decode(context.getWorkDir().getName()));
> 
> and the line 92
> v.addElement("ATTRIBUTE: " +
> RequestUtil.URLDecode(context.getAttribute(key).toString()));
> with
> v.addElement("ATTRIBUTE: " +
> java.net.URLDecoder.decode(context.getAttribute(key).toString()));
> 
> and everything's working fine.
