getAttribute

public Object getAttribute(String name)

Description copied from interface: ServletRequest

Returns the value of the named attribute as an Object, or null if no attribute of the given name exists.

Attributes can be set two ways. The servlet container may set attributes to make available custom information about a request. For example, for requests made using HTTPS, the attribute javax.servlet.request.X509Certificate can be used to retrieve information on the certificate of the client. Attributes can also be set programatically using ServletRequest.setAttribute(java.lang.String, java.lang.Object). This allows information to be embedded into a request before a RequestDispatcher call.

Attribute names should follow the same conventions as package names. This specification reserves names matching java.*, javax.*, and sun.*.

Specified by:

getAttribute in interface ServletRequest

Parameters:

name - a String specifying the name of the attribute

Returns:

an Object containing the value of the attribute, or null if the attribute does not exist

getRequestDispatcher

public RequestDispatcher getRequestDispatcher(String path)

Description copied from interface: ServletRequest

Returns a RequestDispatcher object that acts as a wrapper for the resource located at the given path. A RequestDispatcher object can be used to forward a request to the resource or to include the resource in a response. The resource can be dynamic or static.

The pathname specified may be relative, although it cannot extend outside the current servlet context. If the path begins with a "/" it is interpreted as relative to the current context root. This method returns null if the servlet container cannot return a RequestDispatcher.

The difference between this method and ServletContext.getRequestDispatcher(java.lang.String) is that this method can take a relative path.

Specified by:

getRequestDispatcher in interface ServletRequest

a String specifying the session ID, or null if the request did not specify a session ID

See Also:

HttpServletRequest.isRequestedSessionIdValid()

getRequestURI

public String getRequestURI()

Description copied from interface: HttpServletRequest

Returns the part of this request's URL from the protocol name up to the query string in the first line of the HTTP request. The web container does not decode this String. For example:
