http://issues.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=41017 Summary: MessageBytes used to call recycle() before setString(), now impossible to clear a http header as in setHeader(null) Product: Tomcat 5 Version: 5.5.20 Platform: Other OS/Version: other Status: NEW Severity: normal Priority: P2 Component: Connector:HTTP AssignedTo: tomcat-dev@jakarta.apache.org ReportedBy: [EMAIL PROTECTED] MessageBytes used to call recycle() before setString(), now impossible to clear a http header as in setHeader(null) I used to call response.setHeader("Cache-Control", null) and getResponse().setHeader("Pragma", null) and it doesn't clear the headers anymore. This is because the org.apache.tomcat.util.buf.MessageBytes.setString() doesn't do anything if the given string is null. It is a major regression if not a servlet spec violation to not allow to clear a http header. -- Configure bugmail: http://issues.apache.org/bugzilla/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are the assignee for the bug, or are watching the assignee. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
