isUniversalURL

public static final boolean isUniversalURL(java.lang.String uri)

Returns whether a URL starts with xxx://, mailto:, about:, javascript:, data:

isServlet3

public static final boolean isServlet3()

Returns whether the current Web server supports Servlet 3.0 or above.

Since:

6.0.0

isServlet24

public static final boolean isServlet24()

Returns whether the current Web server supports Servlet 2.4 or above.

Since:

3.0.0

isServlet23

public static final boolean isServlet23()

Returns whether the current Web server supports Servlet 2.3 or above. Thus, if isServlet24() returns true, isServlet23() must return true, too.

Since:

3.0.0

locate

public static final java.lang.String locate(javax.servlet.ServletContext ctx,
                      javax.servlet.ServletRequest request,
                      java.lang.String pgpath,
                      Locator locator)
                                     throws javax.servlet.ServletException

Locates a page based on the current Locale. It never returns null.

Notice that it cannot resolve a path starting with '~', and containing '*', because it cannot access the content of the other servlet context.

If an URI contains "*", it will be replaced with a proper Locale. For example, if the current Locale is zh_TW and the resource is named "ab*.cd", then it searches "ab_zh_TW.cd", "ab_zh.cd" and then "ab.cd", until any of them is found.

Note: "*" must be right before ".", or the last character. For example, "ab*.cd" and "ab*" are both correct, while "ab*cd" and "ab*\/cd" are ignored.

If an URI contains two "*", the first "*" will be replaced with a browser code and the second with a proper locale. The browser code depends on what browser the user are used to visit the web site. Currently, the code for Internet Explorer is "ie", Safari is "saf", Opera is "opr" and all others are "moz". Thus, in the above example, if the resource is named "ab**.cd" and Firefox is used, then it searches "abmoz_zh_TW.cd", "abmoz_zh.cd" and then "abmoz.cd", until any of them is found.

Note: it assumes the path as name_lang_cn_var.ext where ".ext" is optional. Example, my_zh_tw.html.jsp.

Parameters:

ctx - the servlet context to locate pages

pgpath - the page path excluding servlet name. It is OK to have the query string. It might contain "*" for current browser code and Locale.

locator - the locator used to locate resource. If null, ctx is assumed.

Returns:

the path that matches the wildcard; pgpath, otherwise never null

Throws:

javax.servlet.ServletException

forward

public static final void forward(javax.servlet.ServletContext ctx,
           javax.servlet.ServletRequest request,
           javax.servlet.ServletResponse response,
           java.lang.String uri,
           java.util.Map params,
           int mode)
                          throws java.io.IOException,
                                 javax.servlet.ServletException

Forward to the specified URI. It enhances RequestDispatcher in the following ways.

• It handles "~ctx"" where ctx is the context path of the foreign context. It is called foreign URI.
• It detects whether the page calling this method is included by another servlet/page. If so, it uses RequestDispatcher.include() instead of RequestDispatcher.forward().
• The forwarded page could accept additional parameters -- actually converting parameters to a query string and appending it to uri.
• In additions, it does HTTP encoding, i.e., converts '+' and other characters to comply HTTP.

NOTE: don't include query parameters in uri.

Parameters:

ctx - the servlet context. If null, uri cannot be foreign URI. It is ignored if URI is relevant (neither starts with '/' nor '~').

uri - the URI to include. It is OK to relevant (without leading '/'). If starts with "/", the context path of request is assumed. To reference to foreign context, use "~ctx" where ctx is the context path of the foreign context (without leading '/'). If it could be any context path recognized by the Web container or any name registered with addExtendletContext(javax.servlet.ServletContext, java.lang.String, org.zkoss.web.util.resource.ExtendletContext).
Notice that, since 3.6.3, uri could contain '*' (to denote locale and browser). Refer to locate(javax.servlet.ServletContext, javax.servlet.ServletRequest, java.lang.String, org.zkoss.util.resource.Locator).

params - the parameter map; null to ignore

mode - one of OVERWRITE_URI, IGNORE_PARAM, and APPEND_PARAM. It defines how to handle if both uri and params contains the same parameter.

Throws:

java.io.IOException

javax.servlet.ServletException

                       java.lang.String uri)

Returns the resource of the specified uri. Unlike ServletContext.getResource, it handles "~" like getRequestDispatcher(javax.servlet.ServletContext, javax.servlet.ServletRequest, java.lang.String, java.util.Map, int) did.

Since 5.0.7, file://, http://, https:// and ftp:// are supported.

getResourceAsStream

public static final java.io.InputStream getResourceAsStream(javax.servlet.ServletContext ctx,
                                      java.lang.String uri)
                                                     throws java.io.IOException

Returns the resource stream of the specified uri. Unlike ServletContext.getResource, it handles "~" like getRequestDispatcher(javax.servlet.ServletContext, javax.servlet.ServletRequest, java.lang.String, java.util.Map, int) did.

Since 5.0.7, file://, http://, https:// and ftp:// are supported.

Throws:

java.io.IOException

generateURI

public static final java.lang.String generateURI(java.lang.String uri,
                           java.util.Map params,
                           int mode)

Generates URI by appending the parameters. Note: it doesn't support the ~xxx/ format.

Parameters:

params - the parameters to apend to the query string

mode - one of OVERWRITE_URI, IGNORE_PARAM, APPEND_PARAM and PASS_THRU_ATTR. It defines how to handle if both uri and params contains the same parameter. mode is used only if both uri contains query string and params is not empty.

getContextPaths

public static final java.util.List<java.lang.String> getContextPaths()

Returns a list of context paths (e.g., "/abc") that this application has. This implementation parse application.xml. For war that doesn't contain application.xml might have to override this method and parse another file to know what context being loaded.

getLimitTimeOffer

public static final java.lang.String getLimitTimeOffer()

Returns a token to represent a limit-time offer. It is mainly used as an parameter value (mostlycalled zk_lto), and then you could verify whether it is expired by isOfferExpired(java.lang.String, int).

isOfferExpired

public static final boolean isOfferExpired(java.lang.String lto,
                     int timeout)

Returns whether a token returned by getLimitTimeOffer expired.

Parameters:

timeout - how long the office shall expire, unit: seconds.

addExtendletContext

public static final ExtendletContext addExtendletContext(javax.servlet.ServletContext ctx,
                                   java.lang.String name,
                                   ExtendletContext extctx)

Adds an extended context.

Returns:

the previous extended context, if any, associated with the specified name.

removeExtendletContext

public static final ExtendletContext removeExtendletContext(javax.servlet.ServletContext ctx,
                                      java.lang.String name)

Removes an extended context of the specified name.

getExtendletContext

public static final ExtendletContext getExtendletContext(javax.servlet.ServletContext ctx,
                                   java.lang.String name)

Returns the extended context of the specified name.

getExtension

public static final java.lang.String getExtension(java.lang.String path)

Returns the file/path extension of the specified path (excluding dot), or null if no extension at all.

Note: the extension is converted to the lower case.

Parameters:

path - the path. If path is null, null is returned.

Since:

2.4.1

getExtension(String, boolean)

getExtension

public static final java.lang.String getExtension(java.lang.String path,
                            boolean lastOnly)

Returns the file/path extension of the specified path (excluding dot), or null if no extension at all.

Note: the extension is converted to the lower case.

The result is the same for both getExtension(String) and getExtension(String, boolean), if the path has only one dot. However, if there are more than one dot, e.g., /a/b.c.d, then getExtension(String) retrieves the last extension, that is, d in this example. On the other hand, if you invoke getExtension(path, false), it returns the complete extension, that is, c.d in this example.

Parameters:

path - the path. If path is null, null is returned.

lastOnly - whether to return the last portion of extensioin if there are two or more dots. In other wors, getExtension(path) is the same as getExtension(path, true).

Since:

3.5.1

getDetail

public static java.lang.String getDetail(javax.servlet.ServletRequest request)

Returns the request detail infomation. It is used to log the debug info.

Since:

3.0.5

getNormalPath

public static java.lang.String getNormalPath(java.lang.String path)

Returns the normal path; that is, will elminate the double dots ".."(parent) and single dot "."(current) in the path as possible. e.g. /abc/../def would be normalized to /def; /abc/./def would be normalized to /abc/def; /abc//def would be normalized to /abc/def.

Note that if found no way to navigate the path, it is deemed as an illegal path. e.g. /../abc or /../../abc is deemed as illegal path since we don't know how to continue doing the normalize.

Since:

3.6.2
