REPORT #771 Details.

Project: Tomcat
Category: Bug Report
SubCategory: New Bug Report
Class: swbug
State: received
Priority: medium
Severity: critical
Confidence: public
Environment: 
   Release: 3.2.1
   JVM Release: JDK1.3
   Operating System: Win2k
   OS Release: Pro
   Platform: Intel

Synopsis: 
RequestDispatcher.forward() broken with custom ServletRequest implementations

Description:
When chaining services via RequestDispatcher.forward(ServletRequest req, 
ServletResponse res), there is no way to modify the data in req.  For instance, if I 
wished to perform alterations on the request data and create my own implementation of 
ServletRequest. I cannot then use an instance of my implementation this with 
RequestDispatcher.forward() because the first thing it attempts to do is cast the 
ServletRequest to org.apache.tomcat.facade.HttpServletRequestFacade. This makes for 
some rather tame and incomplete chaining.
