I am using servlet to receive request in Struts2 for cXML punchout module, the XML document will be sent with request in stream and I had used request.getInputStream()
and request.getReader()
to receive but when the request hits my servlet from remote client system inputSteram.read()
returns -1 , but req.getContentLength()
returns length of the XML string from request object.
How can I get over from this issue? Is there any other way to carry out this process?
note: the same servlet works in non-struts environment.......!
Solved : If you are using inputStream in srvlet to read value stream, you are not suppose to use Request.getParameter().... before getting Stream value to InputStream through req.getInputStream()...
Ex:
Correct-- method
InputStream in=req.getInputStream();
StringBuffer xmlStr=new StringBuffer();
int d;
while((d=in.read()) != -1){
xmlStr.append((char)d);
}
System.out.println("xmlStr1--"+xmlStr.toString());
Below method will cause ISSUE:
String str = req.getParameter("SOMETEXT");
InputStream in=req.getInputStream();
StringBuffer xmlStr=new StringBuffer();
int d;
while((d=in.read()) != -1){
xmlStr.append((char)d);
}
System.out.println("xmlStr1--"+xmlStr.toString());
