Because in the framework I am working on (Jakarta Cactus), I need to
support all servlet engines (including Tomcat 3.3) :-)

There is no sendredirect in my code but I may be doing something not in
the spec ... As suggested by Larry Isaacs, I'm going to open a bug in
bugzilla with details on the test case. However, it is going to take
some time as I need to extract the relevant portion from the code. I
hoped someone was going to say something like : "yes, we know, we have
an issue when you're sending parameter in the URL at the same time as in
the request body" ... :-)

In the meantime (before I finish extracting the code), some more
information on the code logic (client side) :

1/ open an http connection to Tomcat 3.3 using HttpURLConnection and
read all returned data (with attached AutoReadHttpURLConnection class) :

  HttpURLConnection connection = helper.connect(theRequest);
  connection = new AutoReadHttpURLConnection(connection);
  // Trigger the transfer of data
  connection.getInputStream();

On the server side, some code is executed and a result is set in the
application context.

2/ open a second connection to the server using HttpURLConnection and
get the test result (sent back as an ObjectOutputStream)

Repeat 1/ and 2/ for all the requests I mentioned in my previous mail
(the mixed POST/GET one and the other GET ones).

Thanks
