ContentType is Always Null
(Redhat 7 with kernel 2.42; TomCat/ServletApi Build2001-05-04) - please note
that I've tried this on TCb1 and TCb3 with the same results.
The following request url (as well as all other valid urls) always returns
null for contentType:
http://localhost:8080/xyz/servlet/ViewResource/index.html
******************* Some code within doGet method **********************
// Get the resource to view
URL url = null;
try {
url = getServletContext().getResource(req.getPathInfo());
return url;
}
catch (IOException e) {
....
return;
}
// Connect to the resource
URLConnection con = url.openConnection();
con.connect();
// con.getURL() returns jndi:/localhost/xyz/index.html
// Get and set the type of the resource
String contentType = con.getContentType(); // This returns null
res.setContentType(contentType);
***************************************************************************
Any suggestions?
Thank You,
Anthony
