Method Detail- 
containsHeaderboolean containsHeader(String name) Returns a boolean indicating whether the named response header has already been set.- Parameters:
- name- the header name
- Returns:
- trueif the named response header has already been set;- falseotherwise
 
 - 
sendErrorvoid sendError(int sc, String msg) throws IOExceptionSends an error response to the client using the specified status code and clears the output buffer. The server defaults to creating the response to look like an HTML-formatted server error page containing the specified message, setting the content type to "text/html", leaving cookies and other headers unmodified. If an error-page declaration has been made for the web application corresponding to the status code passed in, it will be served back in preference to the suggested msg parameter.If the response has already been committed, this method throws an IllegalStateException. After using this method, the response should be considered to be committed and should not be written to. - Parameters:
- sc- the error status code
- msg- the descriptive message
- Throws:
- IOException- If an input or output exception occurs
- IllegalStateException- If the response was committed
 
 - 
sendErrorvoid sendError(int sc) throws IOExceptionSends an error response to the client using the specified status code and clears the buffer. This is equivalent to callingsendError(int, String)with the same status code andnullfor the message.- Parameters:
- sc- the error status code
- Throws:
- IOException- If an input or output exception occurs
- IllegalStateException- If the response was committed before this method call
 
 - 
sendRedirectvoid sendRedirect(String location) throws IOException Sends a temporary redirect response to the client using the specified redirect location URL. This method can accept relative URLs; the servlet container must convert the relative URL to an absolute URL before sending the response to the client. If the location is relative without a leading '/' the container interprets it as relative to the current request URI. If the location is relative with a leading '/' the container interprets it as relative to the servlet container root.If the response has already been committed, this method throws an IllegalStateException. After using this method, the response should be considered to be committed and should not be written to. - Parameters:
- location- the redirect location URL
- Throws:
- IOException- If an input or output exception occurs
- IllegalStateException- If the response was committed or if a partial URL is given and cannot be converted into a valid URL
 
 - 
setDateHeadervoid setDateHeader(String name, long date) Sets a response header with the given name and date-value. The date is specified in terms of milliseconds since the epoch. If the header had already been set, the new value overwrites the previous one. ThecontainsHeadermethod can be used to test for the presence of a header before setting its value.- Parameters:

 - 
setStatusvoid setStatus(int sc) Sets the status code for this response. This method is used to set the return status code when there is no error (for example, for the status codes SC_OK or SC_MOVED_TEMPORARILY). If there is an error, and the caller wishes to invoke an error-page defined in the web application, thesendErrormethod should be used instead.The container clears the buffer and sets the Location header, preserving cookies and other headers. - Parameters:
- sc- the status code
- See Also:
- sendError(int, java.lang.String)
 
 - 
getCharacterEncodingString getCharacterEncoding() Returns the name of the character encoding (MIME charset) used for the body sent in this response. The character encoding may have been specified explicitly using thesetContentType(java.lang.String)method, or implicitly using thesetLocale(java.util.Locale)method. Explicit specifications take precedence over implicit specifications. Calls made to these methods aftergetWriterhas been called or after the response has been committed have no effect on the character encoding. If no character encoding has been specified,ISO-8859-1is returned.See RFC 2047 (http://www.ietf.org/rfc/rfc2047.txt) for more information about character encoding and MIME. - Returns:
- a Stringspecifying the name of the character encoding, for example,UTF-8
 
 - 
getContentTypeString getContentType() Returns the content type used for the MIME body sent in this response. The content type proper must have been specified usingsetContentType(java.lang.String)before the response is committed. If no content type has been specified, this method returns null. If a content type has been specified and a character encoding has been explicitly or implicitly specified as described ingetCharacterEncoding(), the charset parameter is included in the string returned. If no character encoding has been specified, the charset parameter is omitted.- Returns:
- a Stringspecifying the content type, for example,text/html; charset=UTF-8, or null
- Since:
- 2.4
 
 - 
getOutputStreamOutputStream getOutputStream() throws IOException Returns aOutputStreamsuitable for writing binary data in the response. The servlet container does not encode the binary data.Calling flush() on the OutputStream commits the response. Either this method or getWriter()may be called to write the body, not both.- Returns:
- a OutputStreamfor writing binary data
- Throws:
- IllegalStateException- if the- getWritermethod has been called on this response
- IOException- if an input or output exception occurred
- See Also:
- getWriter()
 
 - 
getWriterPrintWriter getWriter() throws IOException Returns aPrintWriterobject that can send character text to the client. ThePrintWriteruses the character encoding returned bygetCharacterEncoding(). If the response's character encoding has not been specified as described ingetCharacterEncoding(i.e., the method just returns the default valueISO-8859-1),getWriterupdates it toISO-8859-1.Calling flush() on the PrintWritercommits the response.Either this method or getOutputStream()may be called to write the body, not both.- Returns:
- a PrintWriterobject that can return character data to the client
- Throws:
- UnsupportedEncodingException- if the character encoding returned by- getCharacterEncodingcannot be used
- IllegalStateException- if the- getOutputStreammethod has already been called for this response object
- IOException- if an input or output exception occurred
- See Also:
- getOutputStream()
 
 - 
setContentLengthvoid setContentLength(int len) Sets the length of the content body in the response In HTTP servlets, this method sets the HTTP Content-Length header.- Parameters:
- len- an integer specifying the length of the content being returned to the client; sets the Content-Length header
 
 - 
setContentTypevoid setContentType(String type) Sets the content type of the response being sent to the client, if the response has not been committed yet. The given content type may include a character encoding specification, for example,text/html;charset=UTF-8. The response's character encoding is only set from the given content type if this method is called beforegetWriteris called.This method may be called repeatedly to change content type and character encoding. This method has no effect if called after the response has been committed. It does not set the response's character encoding if it is called after getWriterhas been called or after the response has been committed.Containers must communicate the content type and the character encoding used for the servlet response's writer to the client if the protocol provides a way for doing so. In the case of HTTP, the Content-Typeheader is used.- Parameters:
- type- a- Stringspecifying the MIME type of the content
- See Also:
- setLocale(java.util.Locale),- getOutputStream(),- getWriter()
 
 - 
setBufferSizevoid setBufferSize(int size) Sets the preferred buffer size for the body of the response. The servlet container will use a buffer at least as large as the size requested. The actual buffer size used can be found usinggetBufferSize.A larger buffer allows more content to be written before anything is actually sent, thus providing the servlet with more time to set appropriate status codes and headers. A smaller buffer decreases server memory load and allows the client to start receiving data more quickly. This method must be called before any response body content is written; if content has been written or the response object has been committed, this method throws an IllegalStateException.- Parameters:
- size- the preferred buffer size
- Throws:
- IllegalStateException- if this method is called after content has been written
- See Also:
- getBufferSize(),- flushBuffer(),- isCommitted(),- reset()
 
 - 
getBufferSizeint getBufferSize() Returns the actual buffer size used for the response. If no buffering is used, this method returns 0.- Returns:
- the actual buffer size used
- See Also:
- setBufferSize(int),- flushBuffer(),- isCommitted(),- reset()
 
 - 
flushBuffervoid flushBuffer() throws IOExceptionForces any content in the buffer to be written to the client. A call to this method automatically commits the response, meaning the status code and headers will be written.- Throws:
- IOException
- See Also:
- setBufferSize(int),- getBufferSize(),- isCommitted(),- reset()
 
 - 
resetBuffervoid resetBuffer() Clears the content of the underlying buffer in the response without clearing headers or status code. If the response has been committed, this method throws anIllegalStateException.- See Also:
- setBufferSize(int),- getBufferSize(),- isCommitted(),- reset()
 
 - 
isCommittedboolean isCommitted() Returns a boolean indicating if the response has been committed. A committed response has already had its status code and headers written.- Returns:
- a boolean indicating if the response has been committed
- See Also:
- setBufferSize(int),- getBufferSize(),- flushBuffer(),- reset()
 
 - 
resetvoid reset() Clears any data that exists in the buffer as well as the status code and headers. If the response has been committed, this method throws anIllegalStateException.- Throws:
- IllegalStateException- if the response has already been committed
- See Also:
- setBufferSize(int),- getBufferSize(),- flushBuffer(),- isCommitted()
 
 - 
setLocalevoid setLocale(Locale loc) Sets the locale of the response, if the response has not been committed yet. It also sets the response's character encoding appropriately for the locale, if the character encoding has not been explicitly set usingsetContentType(java.lang.String),getWriterhasn't been called yet, and the response hasn't been committed yet. If the deployment descriptor contains alocale-encoding-mapping-listelement, and that element provides a mapping for the given locale, that mapping is used. Otherwise, the mapping from locale to character encoding is container dependent.This method may be called repeatedly to change locale and character encoding. The method has no effect if called after the response has been committed. It does not set the response's character encoding if it is called after setContentType(java.lang.String)has been called with a charset specification, aftergetWriterhas been called, or after the response has been committed.Containers must communicate the locale and the character encoding used for the servlet response's writer to the client if the protocol provides a way for doing so. In the case of HTTP, the locale is communicated via the Content-Languageheader, the character encoding as part of theContent-Typeheader for text media types. Note that the character encoding cannot be communicated via HTTP headers if the servlet does not specify a content type; however, it is still used to encode text written via the servlet response's writer.- Parameters:
- loc- the locale of the response
- See Also:
- getLocale(),- setContentType(java.lang.String)
 
 - 
getLocaleLocale getLocale() Returns the locale specified for this response using thesetLocale(java.util.Locale)method. Calls made tosetLocaleafter the response is committed have no effect. If no locale has been specified, the container's default locale is returned.- Returns:
- the locale
- See Also:
- setLocale(java.util.Locale)
