Ankit Agarwal commented on SLING-5866:
--------------------------------------
[~bdelacretaz] I have dropped a mail regarding test cases on dev list as 116
test cases are failing (without including changes of pull request). So once I
am clear why these test cases are failing I will add test cases for this
scenario.
thanks,
> DefaultGetServlet obtains input stream for binary even if request is a HEAD

> Key: SLING-5866
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SLING-5866
> Project: Sling
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: Servlets
> Affects Versions: Servlets Get 2.1.14
> Reporter: Ankit Agarwal
>
> As per current implementation any HEAD request will be handled by
> defaultHeadServlet which majorly does two changes
> 1.) coverts response output stream to be null so that there should be no
> message body in response
> 2.) coverts HEAD request to GET request.
> Now this request is dispatched and served by defaultGetServlet.
> With this approach, we get the desired output but response is delayed as it
> reads the complete binary data of a resource. and also it increases data
> transfer which is not needed.
> So IMO this approach should be improved.
> thanks,
