Check the given request for a session attribute of the given name. Throws an exception if there is no session or if the session has no such attribute. Does not create a new session if none has existed before!

Parameters:
request - current HTTP request
name - the name of the session attribute
Returns:
the value of the session attribute, or null if not found
Throws:
IllegalStateException - if the session attribute could not be found

setSessionAttribute

public static void setSessionAttribute(HttpServletRequest request,
                                       String name,
                                       Object value)

Parameters:
request - current HTTP request
name - the name of the session attribute
value - the value of the session attribute

getOrCreateSessionAttribute

public static Object getOrCreateSessionAttribute(HttpSession session,
                                                 String name,
                                                 Class clazz)
                                          throws IllegalArgumentException
Get the specified session attribute, creating and setting a new attribute if no existing found. The given class needs to have a public no-arg constructor. Useful for on-demand state objects in a web tier, like shopping carts.

Parameters:
session - current HTTP session
name - the name of the session attribute
clazz - the class to instantiate for a new attribute
Returns:
the value of the session attribute, newly created if not found
Throws:
IllegalArgumentException - if the session attribute could not be instantiated

getSessionMutex

public static Object getSessionMutex(HttpSession session)
Return the best available mutex for the given session: that is, an object to synchronize on for the given session.

Returns the session mutex attribute if available; usually, this means that the HttpSessionMutexListener needs to be defined in web.xml. Falls back to the HttpSession itself if no mutex attribute found.

The session mutex is guaranteed to be the same object during the entire lifetime of the session, available under the key defined by the SESSION_MUTEX_ATTRIBUTE constant. It serves as a safe reference to synchronize on for locking on the current session.

In many cases, the HttpSession reference itself is a safe mutex as well, since it will always be the same object reference for the same active logical session. However, this is not guaranteed across different servlet containers; the only 100% safe way is a session mutex.

Parameters:
session - the HttpSession to find a mutex for
Returns:
the mutex object (never null)
See Also:
SESSION_MUTEX_ATTRIBUTE, HttpSessionMutexListener

isIncludeRequest

public static boolean isIncludeRequest(ServletRequest request)
Determine whether the given request is an include request, that is, not a top-level HTTP request coming in from the outside.

Checks the presence of the "javax.servlet.include.request_uri" request attribute. Could check any request attribute that is only present in an include request.

Parameters:
request - current servlet request
Returns:
whether the given request is an include request

exposeForwardRequestAttributes

public static void exposeForwardRequestAttributes(HttpServletRequest request)
Expose the current request URI and paths as HttpServletRequest attributes under the keys defined in the Servlet 2.4 specification, for containers that implement 2.3 or an earlier version of the Servlet API: javax.servlet.forward.request_uri, javax.servlet.forward.context_path, javax.servlet.forward.servlet_path, javax.servlet.forward.path_info, javax.servlet.forward.query_string.

Does not override values if already present, to not cause conflicts with the attributes exposed by Servlet 2.4+ containers themselves.

Parameters:
request - current servlet request

exposeRequestAttributes

public static void exposeRequestAttributes(ServletRequest request,
                                           Map attributes)
                                    throws IllegalArgumentException
Expose the given Map as request attributes, using the keys as attribute names and the values as corresponding attribute values. Keys need to be Strings.

Parameters:
request - current HTTP request
attributes - the attributes Map
Throws:
IllegalArgumentException - if an invalid key is found in the Map

getCookie

public static Cookie getCookie(HttpServletRequest request,
                               String name)
Retrieve the first cookie with the given name. Note that multiple cookies can have the same name but different paths or domains.

Parameters:
request - current servlet request
name - cookie name
Returns:
the first cookie with the given name, or null if none is found

Parameters:
request - current HTTP request
name - name of the parameter
Returns:
if the parameter was sent
See Also:
SUBMIT_IMAGE_SUFFIXES

getParametersStartingWith

public static Map getParametersStartingWith(ServletRequest request,
                                            String prefix)
Return a map containing all parameters with the given prefix. Maps single values to String and multiple values to String array.

For example, with a prefix of "spring_", "spring_param1" and "spring_param2" result in a Map with "param1" and "param2" as keys.

Similar to Servlet 2.3's ServletRequest.getParameterMap, but more flexible and compatible with Servlet 2.2.

Parameters:
request - HTTP request in which to look for parameters
prefix - the beginning of parameter names (if this is null or the empty string, all parameters will match)
Returns:
map containing request parameters without the prefix, containing either a String or a String array as values
See Also:
ServletRequest.getParameterNames(), ServletRequest.getParameterValues(java.lang.String), ServletRequest.getParameterMap()

extractFilenameFromUrlPath

public static String extractFilenameFromUrlPath(String urlPath)

Parameters:
urlPath - the request URL path (e.g. "/index.html")
Returns:
the extracted URI filename (e.g. "index")
