      • isInstanceOf

        public boolean isInstanceOf​(String _sTypeName)
        Checks whether this class or an ancestor is an instance of the given type name.
        Specified by:
        isInstanceOf in interface EngineEnvironmentI
        Overrides:
        isInstanceOf in class ServletEngineEnvironment
        Returns:

      • getCookieValue

        public String getCookieValue​(String _sName,
                                     String _sDefault)
        Returns the value of the cookie (sent along with the request) with the given name. If no such cookie exists then the given default value is returned.

        This is a convenience method for accessing a cookie's value. In order to access all cookie data, an array containing all Cookie objects can be obtained by calling getCookies().

        Parameters:
        _sName - name of the requested cookie
        _sDefault - default return value (default = null)
        Returns:
        the value of the cookie with the given name if such cookie exists, otherwise the given default value

      • getCookies

        public Cookie[] getCookies()

      • createCookie

        public Cookie createCookie​(String _sName,
                                   String _sValue)
        Constructs a Cookie object for a specified name and value, to be used later as the parameter to method setCookie(Cookie).

        Note: This method only creates a Cookie object but does not set the cookie in the engine environment.

        This is a factory method wrapped around the Cookie(java.lang.String, java.lang.String) constructor.

        Parameters:
        _sName - the cookie's name. See Cookie(java.lang.String, java.lang.String) on restrictions of the characters allowed for cookie names.
        _sValue - the cookie's value See Cookie.setValue(java.lang.String) on on restrictions of the characters allowed for cookie values.
        Returns:
        a newly allocated Cookie object with the given name and value

                              int _iMaxAge)
        Sets a cookie with the given name, value, and maximum age. If a cookie with the given name already existed it is overwritten. The cookie data will be sent along the servlet reply to the client.

        This is a convenience method for setting a cookie's value. In order to set other attributes of a cookie it should be set by calling setCookie(Cookie).

        Parameters:
        _sName - the cookie's name. See Cookie(java.lang.String, java.lang.String) on restrictions of the characters allowed for cookie names.
        _sValue - the cookie's value See Cookie.setValue(java.lang.String) on on restrictions of the characters allowed for cookie values.
        _iMaxAge - the cookie's maximum age in seconds. See Cookie.setMaxAge(int) on a desciption of this value.
