Constructor Detail

ServletWebRequest

public ServletWebRequest(HttpServletRequest request)
Create a new ServletWebRequest instance for the given request.

Parameters:
request - current HTTP request

ServletWebRequest

public ServletWebRequest(HttpServletRequest request,
                         HttpServletResponse response)
Create a new ServletWebRequest instance for the given request/response pair.

Parameters:
request - current HTTP request
response - current HTTP response (for automatic last-modified handling)
Method Detail

getResponse

public final HttpServletResponse getResponse()
Exposes the native HttpServletRequest that we're wrapping (if any).


getNativeRequest

public Object getNativeRequest()
Description copied from interface: NativeWebRequest
Return the underlying native request object, if available.

Specified by:
getNativeRequest in interface NativeWebRequest
See Also:
HttpServletRequest, ActionRequest, RenderRequest

getNativeResponse

public Object getNativeResponse()
Description copied from interface: NativeWebRequest
Return the underlying native response object, if available.

Specified by:
getNativeResponse in interface NativeWebRequest
See Also:
HttpServletResponse, ActionResponse, RenderResponse

getParameter

public String getParameter(String paramName)
Description copied from interface: WebRequest
Return the request parameter of the given name, or null if none.

Retrieves the first parameter value in case of a multi-value parameter.

Specified by:
getParameter in interface WebRequest
See Also:
ServletRequest.getParameter(String)

getParameterValues

public String[] getParameterValues(String paramName)
Description copied from interface: WebRequest
Return the request parameter values for the given parameter name, or null if none.

A single-value parameter will be exposed as an array with a single element.

Specified by:
getParameterValues in interface WebRequest
See Also:
ServletRequest.getParameterValues(String)

getParameterMap

public Map getParameterMap()
Description copied from interface: WebRequest
Return a immutable Map of the request parameters, with parameter names as map keys and parameter values as map values. The map values will be of type String array.

A single-value parameter will be exposed as an array with a single element.

Specified by:
getParameterMap in interface WebRequest
See Also:
ServletRequest.getParameterMap()

getLocale

public Locale getLocale()
Description copied from interface: WebRequest
Return the primary Locale for this request.

Specified by:
getLocale in interface WebRequest
See Also:
ServletRequest.getLocale()

getContextPath

public String getContextPath()
Description copied from interface: WebRequest
Return the context path for this request (usually the base path that the current web application is mapped to).

Specified by:
getContextPath in interface WebRequest
See Also:
HttpServletRequest.getContextPath()

getRemoteUser

public String getRemoteUser()
Description copied from interface: WebRequest
Return the remote user for this request, if any.

Specified by:
getRemoteUser in interface WebRequest
See Also:
HttpServletRequest.getRemoteUser()

getUserPrincipal

public Principal getUserPrincipal()
Description copied from interface: WebRequest
Return the user principal for this request, if any.

Specified by:
getUserPrincipal in interface WebRequest
See Also:
HttpServletRequest.getUserPrincipal()

isUserInRole

public boolean isUserInRole(String role)
Description copied from interface: WebRequest
Determine whether the user is in the given role for this request.

Specified by:
isUserInRole in interface WebRequest
See Also:
HttpServletRequest.isUserInRole(String)

isSecure

public boolean isSecure()
Description copied from interface: WebRequest
Return whether this request has been sent over a secure transport mechanism (such as SSL).

Specified by:
isSecure in interface WebRequest
See Also:
ServletRequest.isSecure()

checkNotModified

public boolean checkNotModified(long lastModifiedTimestamp)
Description copied from interface: WebRequest
Check whether the request qualifies as not modified given the supplied last-modified timestamp (as determined by the application).

This will also transparently set the appropriate response headers, for both the modified case and the not-modified case.

Typical usage:

 public String myHandleMethod(WebRequest webRequest, Model model) {
   long lastModified = // application-specific calculation
   if (request.checkNotModified(lastModified)) {
     // shortcut exit - no further processing necessary
     return null;
   }
   // further request processing, actually building content
   model.addAttribute(...);
   return "myViewName";
 }

Specified by:
checkNotModified in interface WebRequest
Parameters:
lastModifiedTimestamp - the last-modified timestamp that the application determined for the underlying resource
Returns:
whether the request qualifies as not modified, allowing to abort request processing and relying on the response telling the client that the content has not been modified

isNotModified

public boolean isNotModified()

getDescription

public String getDescription(boolean includeClientInfo)
Description copied from interface: WebRequest
Get a short description of this request, typically containing request URI and session id.

Specified by:
getDescription in interface WebRequest
Parameters:
includeClientInfo - whether to include client-specific information such as session id and user name
Returns:
the requested description as String

toString

public String toString()
Overrides:
toString in class ServletRequestAttributes
