Hi Paul,
Thanks for the reply. But it still did not solve my problem. Say, I
saved some Requests that Jigsaw processed before. I don't care what the
source request from client are. I just saved those Requests somewhere.
If conditions allowed, I want to active these Requests to replace the
current Request. Actually, the current Request is just a signal for my
filter to replace with a specific Request. (It had be proccessed before)
In your approach, I have to extract all information from Request, and
save these non-structure information. Then when I want to replace a
Request, set those saved information to the current Request. Therefore
problems araised:
1. How to extract ALL information from a Request object?
2. How to restore all these information back to a Request object?
(e.g. I don't know how to get/set content of a Request.)
So I don't think the above is the good choice for my requirement. Is
there any other solutions? Since I already had a completed Request
object, active it as the current Request is the best and safest
solution. Then, How?
Can I write a perform() method in my filter to override superclass's
method? If so, is perform() method the only one to be overrided?
Thanks,
Qiang
