Three tests in the itest module fail now, all of them in RequestDispatchTest.
These tests call a servlet which: - writes to the writer - forwards to another servlet - writes to the writer again. With http.base 3.0.0 the write after the forward is simply ignored, with http.base 3.0.1-SNAPSHOT it is not and ends up in the output stream. Looking at the servlet spec, that seems to be wrong. However I'm not sure whether the writing should be ignored or actually throw an exception. This is due to FELIX-5053, so it seems we were wrong that the close is not needed :) Carsten -- Carsten Ziegeler Adobe Research Switzerland cziege...@apache.org
