Make Sling HTTP Servlet Request and Response Adaptable
------------------------------------------------------
Key: SLING-979
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SLING-979
Project: Sling
Issue Type: New Feature
Components: API
Affects Versions: API 2.0.4
Reporter: Carsten Ziegeler
It would be nice if the SlingHttpServletRequest and SlingHttpServletResponse
would extend the Adaptable interface.
Adapting the request/response is interesting in several situations. For
example, in a portlet environment the req/response could be easily adapted to
the Portlet request/response.
Or if Sling is used in combination with another web framework the
request/response could be easily adapted to the corresponding objects of that
particular framework.
Another use case is the rewriter (in the whiteboard currently) which makes the
response adaptable to a ContentHandler which receives SAX events. This allows
direct streaming of XML events from within Sling without the need of creating
an output stream and later on reparsing.
As the request and response object are implemented using the wrappers,
extending the interface does not create problems.
