Interface IServletHandler

All Known Implementing Classes:

GetPostHandler, HTTPToSOAP, WSDLHandler

public interface IServletHandler

IServletHandler is the interface that must be implemented by all objects that wish to service servlet requests. The reason for this layer of abstraction is that standard 2.2 servlets do not have the ability to examine a request and then signal that they do not wish to service it. Because you cannot always determine the protocol that is riding over HTTP by looking at the extension of the request, a single GLUE servlet accepts all incoming requests and then queries each IServletHandler in turn to see which one wants to service the request.
