Transfer-encoding:chunked responsibilities?

Dear All, I couldn't find mention in the servlet spec for this so I'm asking here if anyone knows what the correct procedure should be. In a servlet I want to use the HTTP 1.1 chunked transfer encoding, so, I add the Transfer-encoding header with a value of chunked as a response header. I
