Hello,
We have been experiencing a strange behavior of Catalina's implementation
of HttpServletResponse.encodeURL()
Application calls to this method (from a servlet running in Catalina)
sometimes cause a NullPointerException.
This occurred apparently at random, especially in situations where
multiple calls to this methods were made in a short timespan.
Tracing the exception showed that the reference to the the exception
was caused by the implementing class in Catalina loosing the reference
to the HttpServletResponse object.
We experienced this problem with tomcat 4.0-b1, 4.0-b5 and 4.0-b7
(which are all versions we worked with).
We would appreciate any help on this issue.
Many thanks
