Hmm Sorry Jason,
I might have had to notice that I am extending SlingSafeMethodServlet but also
implementing the following servlet:
https://docs.adobe.com/docs/en/cq/5-6-1/javadoc/com/day/cq/commons/servlets/NonExistingResourceServlet.html
And as it states in the docs itself, it also says:
public boolean accepts(SlingHttpServletRequest request) {
// get non-existing path (incl. selectors and extension!)
String path = request.getResource().getPath();
// return true if this servlet can handle this path
return true;
}
So probably it’s not possible to do it through this interface in without
manually parseing :)
It also says in the docs: Please note: This is a temporary solution until Sling
provides a built-in mechanism for this use case. Not to be used by client
implementations!
Any clue if it is possible yet to do it with standard sling, the thing I try to
achieve is a servlet that also catches resources with a selector AND suffix (as
stated in my example of course) ?
Thanks!
Roy
