--- Comment #5 from Joachim Wagner <jwag...@computing.dcu.ie> 2010-09-03 05:02:02 EDT --- General comment (without knowing tomcat): HTTP RFC 2616 defines HTTP header field names as case-insensitive. Existing applications will break if suddenly the raw headers are used and the problems may not surface in testing as your test client probably uses the same casing as your server app. http://www.w3.org/Protocols/rfc2616/rfc2616-sec4.html#sec4.2 My best guess why underscores are converted to hyphens by tomcat is that apache httpd converts in the other direction (in order to generate valid environment variable names for CGI programs). -- 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
