In the original application (a piece of middleware), the application
would receive a request from one of its clients. It would then forward
the request to a remote server over a socket. The responses from the
remote server arrive back asynchronously (sp?). Then the app would send
the response back to the original client.
When I converted this application to a servlet, the asynchronous nature
of requests/responses fails completely. If doGet() returns without
writing (or include/forwarding) anything, you *will* get a 501 error.
While I suppose this makes some kind of sense, it is annoying...
