HttpServletResponse

Synopsis

HttpServletResponse extends javax.servlet.ServletResponse and provides additional methods for HTTP-specific actions and a set of HTTP response code constants. The containsHeader(), setHeader(), setDateHeader(), and setIntHeader() methods allow servlets to set and update specific HTTP response headers. The addCookie() method writes a cookie, represented by a Cookie object, to the client. The sendError() and setStatus() methods allow servlets to set specific HTTP result codes, along with an optional customized error message. The encodeUrl() and encodeRedirectUrl() methods (deprecated in 2.1 in favor of encodeURL() and encodeRedirectURL()) methods support session tracking without the use of cookies. The sendRedirect() method handles an HTTP page redirect.
