RE: bug in Tomcat 4 or .... what?

[Turner, John]

Agreed.  In my experience, the request object should be considered static
and simply read using the methods included in the class for that purpose.

I believe there's other stuff in there too about not expecting everything to
work as normal if you go low-level messing around with the request.

Subject: bug in Tomcat 4 or  what?


Hi,

I have a servlet that opens a DataInputStrem on the request (see below)

public void doPost(HttpServletRequest request, HttpServletResponse response)
   throws ServletException{

 try{
   // Open the I/O streams
DataInputStream in = new DataInputStream(request.getInputStream() );

After this pice of code I cant' access any more to the request parameters.
Infact this code:

request.getParameter("anyParameter")

retrieves ALWAYS null.
The strange thing is that this servlet was Ok for tomcat 3, but can't work
any more with Tomcat4.

Anyone can explain why opening a DataInputStream alters the
HttpServletRequest?

Thanks
