I can't speak to whether the expert committee's decision was arbitrary or not. :) But once they've made a decision, it is a rule that must be implemented. > I don't believe Jakarta, and other implementations have this limit -- I just > looked and they are using a long.

Jakarta used to have Tomcat, which I assume is what you're referring to, but every reference I can find in Tomcat 6.x (BaseRequest, Request, RequestFascade, ApplicationHttpRequest, DummyRequest) returns int for getContentLength(). If someone has figured a way around the spec limitation, that's great news! Maybe newer versions of Java had changed this, but I didn't think you could alter method signatures. -- Serge Knystautas Lokitech >> software . strategy . design >> http://www.lokitech.com p. 301.656.5501 e.
