<subsection name="Introduction">
|
||||
|
||||
<p>The purpose of the <strong>Default Servlet</strong> is to serve
|
||||
static resources of a web application in response to client requests.
|
||||
As the name implies, it is generally configured as the "default"
|
||||
servlet for a web application, by being mapped to a URL pattern "/".</p>

||||

||||

|

|
||||

||||
<subsection name="External Specifications">
|
||||
|
||||
<p>The following external specifications have provisions which
|
||||
partially define the correct behavior of the default servlet:</p>
|
||||
<ul>
|
||||
<li><a href="https://jcp.org/aboutJava/communityprocess/final/jsr340/index.html">
|
||||
Servlet Specification</a> (Version 3.1)</li>

<li><a href="https://www.rfc-editor.org/rfc/rfc2046.txt">Multipurpose
|
||||
Internet Mail Extensions (MIME) Part Two: Media Types</a></li>

<li><a href="https://www.rfc-editor.org/rfc/rfc2616.txt">Hypertext
|
||||

|

</ul>

</subsection>

|

<subsection name="Implementation Requirements">
|
||||
|
||||
<p>The implementation of this functionality shall conform to the
|
||||
following requirements:</p>
|
||||
<ul>
|
||||
<li>Must be implemented as a servlet.</li>
|
||||
<li>Must support configurable parameters for debugging detail level,
|
||||
input buffer size, output buffer size, whether or not to produce
|
||||
directory listings when no welcome file is present, and whether or not
|
||||
modifications are supported via DELETE and PUT.</li>
|
||||
<li>Log debugging and operational messages (suitably internationalized)
|
||||
via the <code>getServletContext().log()</code> method.</li>
|
||||
</ul>

<subsection name="Environmental Dependencies">
|
||||
|
||||
<p>The following environmental dependencies must be met in order for
|
||||
the default servlet to operate correctly:</p>
|
||||
<ul>
|
||||
<li>The default servlet must be registered in the application deployment
|
||||
descriptor (or the default deployment descriptor in file
|
||||
<code>$CATALINA_BASE/conf/web.xml</code>) using a "default servlet"
|
||||
servlet mapping, signified by URL pattern "/".</li>

||||

||||
</subsection>
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
<subsection name="Container Dependencies">
|
||||
|
||||
<p>Correct operation of the default servlet depends on the following
|
||||
specific features of the surrounding container:</p>
|
||||
<ul>
|
||||
<li>The container shall provide a servlet context attribute that
|
||||
lists the welcome file names that have been defined for this
|
||||
web application.</li>
|
||||
<li>The container shall provide a servlet context attribute that
|
||||
contains a <code>javax.naming.directory.DirContext</code>
|
||||
implementation representing the static resources of this
|
||||
web application.</li>

||||

<subsection name="Initialization Functionality">
|
||||
|
||||
<p>The following processing must be performed when the <code>init()</code>
|
||||
method of the default servlet is called:</p>
|
||||
<ul>
|
||||
<li>Process and sanity check configuration parameters.</li>
|
||||
</ul>
|
||||
|
||||
</subsection>
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
<subsection name="Per-Request Functionality">
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
<p>For all HTTP request methods, the resource path is determined from
|
||||
the path information provided to this request, either as request attribute
|
||||
<code>javax.servlet.include.path_info</code> (for a request dispatcher
|
||||
access to a static resource) or by calling
|
||||
<code>request.getPathInfo()</code> directly.</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>On each HTTP DELETE request processed by this servlet, the following
|
||||
processing shall be performed:</p>
|
||||
<ul>
|
||||
<li>If modifications to the static resources are not allowed (set by a
|
||||
configuration parameter), return HTTP status 403 (forbidden).</li>
|
||||
<li>If an attempt is made to delete a resource from <code>/META-INF</code>
|
||||
or <code>/WEB-INF</code>, return HTTP status 403 (forbidden).</li>
|
||||
<li>If the requested resource does not exist, return HTTP status 404
|
||||
(not found)</li>
|
||||
<li>Unbind the resource from the directory context containing the
|
||||
static resources for this web application. If successful, return
|
||||
HTTP status 204 (no content). Otherwise, return HTTP status 405
|
||||
(method not allowed).</li>
|
||||
</ul>
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
<p>On each HTTP GET request processed by this servlet, the following
|
||||
processing shall be performed:</p>
|
||||
<ul>
|
||||
<li>If the request is for a resource under <code>/META-INF</code> or
|
||||
<code>/WEB-INF</code>, return HTTP status 404 (not found).</li>
|
||||
<li>If the requested resource does not exist, return HTTP status 404
|
||||
(not found).</li>
|
||||
<li>If the requested resource is not a directory, but the resource
|
||||
path ends in "/" or "\", return HTTP status 404 (not found).</li>
|
||||
<li>If the requested resource is a directory:
|
||||
<ul>
|
||||
<li>If the request path does not end with "/", redirect to a
|
||||
corresponding path with "/" appended so that relative references
|
||||
in welcome files are resolved correctly.</li>
|
||||
<li>If one of the specified welcome files exists, redirect to the
|
||||
path for that welcome file so that it will be served explicitly.
|
||||
</li>
|
||||
</ul></li>
|
||||
<li>If the request being processed contains an <code>If-Range</code>
|
||||
header, perform the processing described in the HTTP/1.1 specification
|
||||
to determine whether the client's information is up to date.</li>
|
||||
<li>Determine the content type of the response, by looking up the
|
||||
corresponding MIME type in our servlet context.</li>
|
||||
<li>If the requested resource is a directory:
|
||||
<ul>
|
||||
<li>If directory listings are suppressed, return HTTP status 404
|
||||
(not found).</li>
|
||||
<li>Set the content type to <code>text/html</code>.</li>
|
||||
</ul></li>
|
||||
<li>Determine the range(s) to be returned, based on the existence of
|
||||
any <code>If-Range</code> and <code>Range</code> headers.</li>
|
||||
<li>If the requested resource is a directory, include an <code>ETag</code>
|
||||
header in the response, with the value calculated based on the content
|
||||
of the directory.</li>
|
||||
<li>Include a <code>Last-Modified</code> header in the response documenting
|
||||
the date/time that the resource was last modified.</li>
|
||||
<li>Unless we are processing a HEAD request, include the appropriate
|
||||
content (or content ranges) in the response.</li>
|
||||
</ul>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>On each HTTP HEAD request processed by this servlet, the following
|
||||
processing shall be performed:</p>
|
||||
<ul>
|
||||
<li>Processed identically to an HTTP GET request, except that the data
|
||||
content is not transmitted after the headers.</li>
|
||||
</ul>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>On each HTTP POST request processed by this servlet, the following
|
||||
processing shall be performed:</p>
|
||||
<ul>
|
||||
<li>Processed identically to an HTTP GET request.</li>
|
||||
</ul>
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
<p>On each HTTP PUT request processed by this servlet, the following
|
||||
processing shall be performed:</p>
|
||||
<ul>
|
||||
<li>If modifications to the static resources are not allowed (set by a
|
||||
configuration parameter), return HTTP status 403 (forbidden).</li>
|
||||
<li>If an attempt is made to delete a resource from <code>/META-INF</code>
|
||||
or <code>/WEB-INF</code>, return HTTP status 403 (forbidden).</li>
|
||||
<li>Create a new resource from the body of this request.</li>
|
||||
<li>Bind or rebind the specified path to the new resource (depending on
|
||||
whether it currently exists or not). Return HTTP status as follows:
|
||||
<ul>
|
||||
<li>If binding was unsuccessful, return HTTP status 409 (conflict).
|
||||
</li>
|
||||
<li>If binding was successful and the resource did not previously
|
||||
exist, return HTTP status 201 (created).</li>
|
||||
<li>If binding was successful and the resource previously existed,
|
||||
return HTTP status 204 (no content).</li>
|
||||
</ul></li>

||||
</ul>

<section name="Testable Assertions">
|

|

<p>In addition to the assertions implied by the functionality requirements
|
||||
listed above, the following additional assertions shall be tested to
|
||||
validate the behavior of the default servlet:</p>
|
||||
<ul>
|
||||
<li>Requests for resources that do not exist in the web application must
|
||||
return HTTP status 404 (not found).</li>
|
||||
<li>The default servlet must operate identically for web applications that
|
||||
are run out of a WAR file directly, or from an unpacked directory
|
||||
structure.</li>
|
||||
<li>If the web application is running out of an unpacked directory
|
||||
structure, the default servlet must recognize cases where the resource
|
||||
has been updated through external means.</li>
