Making the Javadocs more informative is indeed helpful. But, both Valves and Filters exist separately because they are useful for different use cases: Valves are useful when the administrator wants to do something with requests at the servlet container level, without modifying webapps that may or may not be owned or written by the administrator. Filters are useful when you are the webapp author, or when you're able and willing to modify the webapp, to do something with requests. There are valid uses for each, and the administrator should choose for themselves from the available options. I have found RequestDumperValve useful on a number of occasions where I wanted more info about the requests/responses to web applications I've developed, plus webapps that I didn't write. That includes webapps that were localized and internationalized (in development, not every bug needs to be investigated in character sets other than ISO8859-1). The RequestDumperValve has been around for quite a while now, and I find it quite useful, even if it doesn't do everything. Reopening to request the undeprecation of RequestDumperValve. -- Configure bugmail: http://issues.apache.org/bugzilla/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are the assignee for the bug, or are watching the assignee. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
