>                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CXF-4986
>             Project: CXF
>          Issue Type: Bug
>          Components: JAX-RS
>    Affects Versions: 2.7.2
>         Environment: cxf on tomcat
>            Reporter: abdelgadiri
>            Assignee: Sergey Beryozkin
>             Fix For: 2.8.0, 2.7.5
>
>
> I have a filter implementation as follows
> @Provider
> public class AuthSessionFilter implements ContainerRequestFilter {
>     public AuthSessionFilter() {
>     }
>     @Override
>     public void filter(ContainerRequestContext requestContext) throws IOException {      
>         //another @Prematching filter is setting this session id so it is definitely not null
>         Object sessionId = requestContext.getProperty("sessionId");
>         if (sessionId == null || GeneralUtils.isNullOrBlank(sessionId + "")) {
>             requestContext.abortWith(Response.status(Response.Status.UNAUTHORIZED)
>                     .entity("missing sessionId").build());
>         }
>        //this line gets invoked without problems, however, the added header is not available from the resource class
>         requestContext.getHeaders().putSingle("sessionId", sessionId+"");
>     }
> }
> The line requestContext.getHeaders().putSingle("sessionId", sessionId+""); is not making the added sessionId header available when trying to obtain it from my resource. getHeaders() is supposed to return a mutable map in accordance with the spec, but its implementation 'ContainerRequestContextImpl' is returning a readonly map instead. it returning:
>   return new MetadataMap<String, String>(
>             (Map<String, List<String>>)m.get(Message.PROTOCOL_HEADERS), false, true, true);
> where it is passing 'true' for the readonly parameter.
> in my resource, I am trying to obtain the header using
> public Response doSomething(UriInfo uriInfo, HttpServletRequest request) {
>         //this is always null even though it shouldn't be null
>         String sessionId = request.getHeader("sessionId");
> }
