Summary: HttpServletRequest#getParts() does not work in a
Filter
Product: Tomcat 7
Version: 7.0.0
Platform: PC
OS/Version: Windows XP
Status: NEW
Severity: normal
Priority: P2
Component: Servlet & JSP API
AssignedTo: dev@tomcat.apache.org
ReportedBy: bal...@gmail.com
In order to have the ability to process multipart/form-data transparently with
help of the new Servlet 3.0 HttpServletRequest#getParts(), a Filter is the most
suitable place for this.
This works fine in Glassfish v3. However, in Tomcat the getParts() returns null
and it works only inside a servlet with @MultipartConfig annotation.
This is too strict. This makes it hard if not impossible to process
multipart/form-data requests transparently with help of a Filter (i.e. creating
a new parametermap and replacing the original one in HttpServletRequest).
It is true that the Servlet 3.0 spec tells nothing about the use of this method
inside a Filter, but this is in my opinion an oversight. There is no other way
to obtain the parts than parsing the stream yourself with good 'ol Apache
Commons FileUpload.
Since it works fine in Glassfish v3, I'd suggest to make Tomcat 7 that lenient
as well.
