Search the JSP spec for "flush". Could you please point out why the actual behaviour should be expected according to the spec? IMHO, the actual result is NOT expected (cf. JavaTM Servlet Specification, Version 2.5 MR6, p. 61): ------------------------------------------------------------------------ SRV.8.3 The Include Method The include method of the RequestDispatcher interface may be called at any time. The target servlet of the include method has access to all aspects of the request object, but its use of the response object is more limited. It can only write information to the ServletOutputStream or Writer of the response object and commit a response by writing content past the end of the response buffer, or by explicitly calling the flushBuffer method of the ServletResponse interface. It cannot set headers [...] ------------------------------------------------------------------------ In addition, you may find (on p. 62 of the spec.): ------------------------------------------------------------------------ SRV.8.4 The Forward Method The forward method of the RequestDispatcher interface may be called by the calling servlet only when no output has been committed to the client. [...] ------------------------------------------------------------------------ These two occurences are the only two near to RequestDispatcher.include(). Could you please provide a page or section number where to look for? Anyway, in both cases (includ() or forward()) the target servlet is expected to write to the OutputStream or Writer of the calling servlet. Hence, if the target servlet calls the flushBuffer method, the output of the calling servlet is expected to be appear *before* the output of the target servlet. -- Configure bugmail: https://issues.apache.org/bugzilla/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are the assignee for the bug. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: dev-unsubscr...@tomcat.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: dev-h...@tomcat.apache.org
