Re: How to get http and https port # from struts-config in filter?

[Mark Lowe]

Okay I see what you mean now, I don't use sslext as it seems like a 
struts plugin that could just as well be done using a filter or even 
mod_rewrite in apache (for deployment).

If you're using a filter anyway why not write another one to deal with 
all this stuff the sslext does?

The point is the current request is not using the http port.  The only
thing that tells me the port # I require is in a config file -
struts-config.xml (or potentially tomcat server.xml)

I see what you mean.. Seeing as you got as far as reading the
getScheme() bit of the javadoc you could push the boat out and explore
it further for something more up your street.
request.getServerPort()

The 2.4 servlet spec has some other methods to do the same thing.

That doesn't look appropriate.

If the session times out on an https request, I want to redirect to
http, and need to know the http port number (it's not necessarily the
default 80).
According to the docs, request.getScheme() "Returns the name of the
scheme used to make this request, for example, http, https, or ftp."

The api you want would be the servlet api

request.getScheme()

Hi,

I have a servlet filter to handle session timeouts.

This filter needs to redirect to an http page so that the new session
works in both http and https, so a forward is no good as the old
session
may have timed out on an https page.
I'm using the sslext struts plugin which is configured with the port
numbers for http and https.  I would like to read this port numbers
in
the filter, so I can redirect to the correct absolute url (assuming
host
name is the same for secure and insecure pages).
How do I do this?  Hopefully there's an API that can just give me
these
parameters.  I don't want to (nor should I have to) parse the
struts-config myself.
Thanks
Martin
