I'd like to log parts of the post body at the end of the request handling. The way it's currently being done, the servlet pulls the content out of the post body stream, instantiates json objects from it, and throws it away. The stream on the request can't be reset, because it wasn't marked, and hence the post body content is no longer available.
I see two options to retain the post body: 1) (Token bad suggestion) Have a servlet filter that marks the stream, reads the stream, grabs off what it wants, makes a request attribute and then resets the stream for later processing by the JsonRpcServlet. Sounds redundant and inefficient as it has the stream being read twice. 2) (What I propose) Have a servlet filter that reads the stream, and stashes the post body as a request attribute in a filter. Modify JsonRpcServlet to retrieve the attribute the same way that my end-of-request logging will once the post body as attribute is available. Is this cool with everyone? If so, I can whip up a patch. Other suggestions are welcome if it is not. Thanks, Bob Evans
