| <pre>public interface <span class="typeNameLabel">ServletResponse</span></pre> |
| <div class="block">Defines an object to assist a servlet in sending a response to the client. |
| The servlet container creates a <code>ServletResponse</code> object and |
| passes it as an argument to the servlet's <code>service</code> method. |
| |
| <p>To send binary data in a MIME body response, use |
| the <a href="../../javax/servlet/ServletOutputStream.html" title="class in javax.servlet"><code>ServletOutputStream</code></a> returned by <a href="../../javax/servlet/ServletResponse.html#getOutputStream--"><code>getOutputStream()</code></a>. |
| To send character data, use the <code>PrintWriter</code> object |
| returned by <a href="../../javax/servlet/ServletResponse.html#getWriter--"><code>getWriter()</code></a>. To mix binary and text data, |
| for example, to create a multipart response, use a |
| <code>ServletOutputStream</code> and manage the character sections |
| manually. |
| |
| <p>The charset for the MIME body response can be specified explicitly |
| using any of the following techniques: per request, per web-app (using |
| <a href="../../javax/servlet/ServletContext.html#setRequestCharacterEncoding-java.lang.String-"><code>ServletContext.setRequestCharacterEncoding(java.lang.String)</code></a>, deployment descriptor), |
| and per container (for all web applications deployed in that container, |
| using vendor specific configuration). |
| If multiple of the preceding techniques have been employed, the priority is |
| the order listed. |
| For per request, the charset for the response can be specified explicitly |
| using the <a href="../../javax/servlet/ServletResponse.html#setCharacterEncoding-java.lang.String-"><code>setCharacterEncoding(java.lang.String)</code></a> and <a href="../../javax/servlet/ServletResponse.html#setContentType-java.lang.String-"><code>setContentType(java.lang.String)</code></a> methods, |
| or implicitly using the <a href="../../javax/servlet/ServletResponse.html#setLocale-java.util.Locale-"><code>setLocale(java.util.Locale)</code></a> method. |
| Explicit specifications take precedence over implicit specifications. |
| If no charset is explicitly specified, ISO-8859-1 will be used. |
| The <code>setCharacterEncoding</code>, |
| <code>setContentType</code>, or <code>setLocale</code> method must |
| be called before <code>getWriter</code> and before committing |
| the response for the character encoding to be used. |
| |
| <p>See the Internet RFCs such as |
| <a href="http://www.ietf.org/rfc/rfc2045.txt"> |
| RFC 2045</a> for more information on MIME. Protocols such as SMTP |
| and HTTP define profiles of MIME, and those standards |
| are still evolving.</div> |
