Hi,sure, it is done, what I'd like to ask you though is to test a snapshot, The fix I did is basically about wrapping a returned RequestDispatcher and setting the property checked by CXF in a couple of places.
I'm actually not sure why you saw a class cast exception with Option 1 before my fix. Copying the relevant text here:

I tried to implement the forwarding as it was already done >>>>>> by the old servlet using: >>>>>> >>>>>> @Context >>>>>> private ServletContext context; >>>>>> >>>>>> context.getRequestDispatcher(url).forward(request, response); >>>>>> >>>>>> But this does not work, because of a ClassCastException happening. >>>>>> The exception message was like: The ThreadLocal instance for >>>>>> ServletContext could not be casted to the RequestDispatcher >>>>>> instance, which is provided by the server. (NetWeaver) >>>>>> >>>>>> The ThreadLocal object is provided by CXF and the >>>>>> RequestDispatcher implementation is provided by NetWeaver. Of >>>>>> course, this will not work.I'm not sure I understand to be honest. The thread local object provided by CXF keeps current ServletContext objects (created by NetWeaver I assume). So the runtime will do
threadLocal.put(currentServletContext) and then context.getRequestDispatcher(url) is effectively ((ServletContext)threadLocal.get()).getRequestDispatcher(url) so I'm not sure where ClassCastException is coming from... Please investigate on your end by debugging the code... Cheers, Sergey On 09/04/15 07:24, Voss, Marko wrote:
Hi Sergey, yes, we use a 2.7.x CXF version. I think, that is because of the old NetWeaver server we have to use. Can you please fix this for 2.7.16 as well? Thank you very much. :-) Best regards, Marko -----Ursprüngliche Nachricht----- Von: Sergey Beryozkin [mailto:[email protected]] Gesendet: Mittwoch, 8.

Do you need it for CXF 2.7.16 ? Sergey On 08/04/15 13:31, Sergey Beryozkin wrote:Hi Marko That should be possible to get fixed. As I said, the query parameters are passed along either way but if you can not modify JSP or these query parameters are actually representing some custom parameters, then yes, I can see why option 1 makes sense. By the way, RequestDispatcher supports dynamic resource paths set on the message context, so if you have CXF MessageContext injected then you'd set a property on it, "redirect.resource.path"="my.jsp?a=b" and it will work, but it is very much CXF specific.... I'll try to get option 1 done before the releases... Cheers, Sergey On 08/04/15 13:13, Voss, Marko wrote:Hi Sergey, yes, it would be great, if variant 1 would work fine. (No ClassCastException) servletContext.getRequestDispatcher("my.jsp?a=b").forward() Is it possible to fix this?

Note that RequestDispatcherProvider sets query parameters (as well as path and other request properties) as HttpServletRequest parameters, see https://fisheye6.atlassian.com/browse/cxf/rt/frontend/jaxrs/src/main/ java/org/apache/cxf/jaxrs/provider/RequestDispatcherProvider.java?r=3 309231e467225b18b24d90d77153a0c572a17e0#to342 Cheers, Sergey On 08/04/15 12:37, Voss, Marko wrote:Hi Sergey, can I somehow tell the RequestDispatcher to use the String of the Response Entity for redirection? Just saw, that there are also query parameters added to the JSP URL in some cases...

Cheers, Sergey On 08/04/15 06:47, Voss, Marko wrote:Hello Sergey, variant 2 was just an idea but is not really helpful, because of we need to do some logic in order to decide, which JSP to call. So we have to execute some code. So the idea I got is the following: The servlet does execute the code and returns an enum value. Based on the enum value, the RequestDispatcher decides, which JSP to call. This might look like this: org.apache.cxf.jaxrs.provider.RequestDispatcherProvider(resource.St at u s.JSP1=/hello.jsp resource.Status.JSP2=/foo.jsp) The Response object gets the enum value as its entity. Is this correct? Thank you very much and best regards, Marko -----Ursprüngliche Nachricht----- Von: Sergey Beryozkin [mailto:[email protected]] Gesendet: Dienstag, 7.

The main servlet (old code to be replaced by the new REST endpoints) of the application does implement internal forwarding to JSP pages. (for example to a login page) 1. I tried to implement the forwarding as it was already done by the old servlet using: @Context private ServletContext context; context.getRequestDispatcher(url).forward(request, response); But this does not work, because of a ClassCastException happening. The exception message was like: The ThreadLocal instance for ServletContext could not be casted to the RequestDispatcher instance, which is provided by the server. (NetWeaver) The ThreadLocal object is provided by CXF and the RequestDispatcher implementation is provided by NetWeaver. Of course, this will not work.Hmm, interesting, may make sense supporting this variation, I'll have a look...2. I was trying to use the RequestDispatcherProvider of CXF, but how can you configure this provider using the CXFNonSpringJaxrsServlet? <servlet> <servlet-name>RestfulApp</servlet-name> <servlet-class>org.apache.cxf.jaxrs.servlet.CXFNonSpringJaxrsServl et</servlet-class> <init-param> <param-name>jaxrs.serviceClasses</param-name> <param-value> ... </param-value> </init-param> <init-param> <param-name>jaxrs.providers</param-name> <param-value> org.apache.cxf.jaxrs.provider.RequestDispatcherProvider <!-- How to configure this one here??? --> </param-value> </init-param> <load-on-startup>1</load-on-startup> </servlet>The simplest way to do at a servlet level is to use redirect parameters, see https://git-wip-us.apache.org/repos/asf?p=cxf.git;a=blob;f=systests /j a xrs/src/test/resources/jaxrs_dispatch/WEB-INF/web.xml;h=a2212337bd6 a9 e d7a212b21a6826850581601121;hb=HEAD or indeed you can directly configure this provider (and other providers) as a parameter, do something like org.apache.cxf.jaxrs.provider.RequestDispatcherProvider(resourcePat h= / WEB-INF/jsp/test.jsp someotherproperty=somevalue)3. I was trying to implement a RequestHandler, which worked but when the forwarding happens, I get spammed by error messages on server side, that the OutputStreams of the servlets are already taken by a getWriter() method. This spam should be avoided. Example Spam: WARNING: Interceptor for {http://impl.jaxrs.web.foo.bar/}MyServiceImpl has thrown exception, unwinding now com.sap.engine.services.servlets_jsp.server.exceptions.WebIllegalStateException: The stream has already been taken by method [getWriter()]. at com.sap.engine.services.servlets_jsp.server.runtime.client.HttpSer vl e tResponseFacade.getOutputStream(HttpServletResponseFacade.java:244 ) This servlet is not in use at all at this point of the request and not after the request as well. So I wonder in general, why this exception occurs on this servlet. It is maybe a NetWeaver thing. 4. I was trying to implement an equivalent to the RequestDispatcherProvider, doing things here by code. But even when this works, I still get the spam from above.In both cases the outbound CXF JAX-RS interceptor and Http transport need to know the request has been redirected, this can be done by setting an "http.request.redirected" property on the current message, message.put("http.request.redirected", true) But the option 2 is simpler, can you try it and let me know if it works for you ? Thanks, SergeyAny help is much appreciated. Best regards, Marko-- Sergey Beryozkin Talend Community Coders http://coders.talend.com/ Blog: http://sberyozkin.blogspot.com
