Bug ID: 59261 Summary: Request getAsyncContext should throw IllegalStateException if async is not started Product: Tomcat 8 Version: 8.0.33 Hardware: PC OS: Mac OS X 10.1 Status: NEW Severity: normal Priority: P2 Component: Catalina Assignee: dev@tomcat.apache.org Reporter: rwi...@gmail.com If ServletRequest.getAsyncContext() IllegalStateException is invoked and has not been put into asynchronous mode an . From the javadoc [1]: > Throws: IllegalStateException - if this request has not been put into > asynchronous mode, i.e., if neither startAsync() nor > startAsync(ServletRequest,ServletResponse) has been called For implementations of HttpServletRequestWrapper that override this method, the fact that result can be null can cause problems [2]. It appears there are parts of tomcat that check if getAsyncContext() is null rather than checking isAsycStarted(). For example, ApplicationDispatcher checks if getAsyncContext() is null.
