The proper way to do this is to make your decision to suppress a response /before/ any response is generated. You cannot really /not/ respond to a request. You should at least send a blank response, perhaps using an appropriate HTTP status code (like 200 OK, 201 CREATED, 202 ACCEPTED, or 204 NO CONTENT). Another way would be to buffer the response and then throw it out later. | | The proper way | to do that is to buffer any response you /might/ | send, and then simply | do not send it at all if you decide not to. | | But wouldn't that tie up memory? Yes, which is why you shouldn't do it. | | | Or, better yet, decide not to send the response before you actually | | create it, thus avoiding all foolishness of that sort. | | That would be excellent, although I'm not sure how I would go about | choosing not the send the response.

If you don't have access to the source code of the app you are trying to modify, and you can't decide before the request is processed, then you will have to buffer the response and then choose not to send it afterward (which /will/ eat up memory). There's pretty much no way around that. - -chris -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.8 (MingW32) Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - http://enigmail.mozdev.org iEYEARECAAYFAke53f8ACgkQ9CaO5/Lv0PDwYQCgwGQaifUl6H9lmiSYQkvwTZEg 1S0Ani97C6/LTenNuU6jbzm4kevD5Fio =IB/P -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --------------------------------------------------------------------- To start a new topic, e-mail: users@tomcat.apache.org To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
