网上已经有很多关于redirect和forward区别的文章,更多的都是只是一些概念上的描述,虽然在大多情况下,知道这些就已经足够了。但也有例外:forward not working for struts2,why?我也是在工作中碰到了这个问题,才特意看了下tomcat有关这部分的源代码。深刻的了解下也无妨。
redirect和forward都是属于servlet规范的,不同的servlet容器的实现可能会有一些区别,但原理都是类似的。
redirect和forward的定义:
1. redirect(重定向):服务端发送给客户端一个重定向的临时响应头,这个响应头包含重定向之后的URL,客户端用新的URL重新向服务器发送一个请求。
2. forward(请求转向):服务器程序内部请求转向,这个特性允许前一个程序用于处理请求,而后一个程序用来返回响应。
Redirect的原理比较简单,它的定义也已经描述的很清楚了,我也不想多讲什么,就贴一段简单的代码吧!
org.apache.catalina.connector.Response#sendRedirect(String):
- public void sendRedirect(String location)
- throws IOException {
- if (isCommitted())
- throw new IllegalStateException
- (sm.getString("coyoteResponse.sendRedirect.ise"));
- // Ignore any call from an included servlet
- if (included)
- return;
- // Clear any data content that has been buffered
- resetBuffer();
- // Generate a temporary redirect to the specified location
- try {
- String absolute = toAbsolute(location);
- setStatus(SC_FOUND);
- setHeader("Location", absolute);
- } catch (IllegalArgumentException e) {
- setStatus(SC_NOT_FOUND);
- }
- // Cause the response to be finished (from the application perspective)
- setSuspended(true);
- }
方法行为:先把相对路径转换成绝对路径,再包装一个包含有新的URL的临时响应头,“SC_FOUND”的值是302,就是重定向临时响应头的状态码。如果传入的“location”值不合法,就包装一个404的响应头。
下面就来看看tomcat是如何实现forward的,forward为什么在struts2下会无效(注解:其实是可以设置的)。
先看下程序是如何调用forward的:
- req.getRequestDispatcher("testForward").forward(req, resp);
整个过程分两个步骤来执行
1. 得到一个请求调度器
2. 通过调度器把请求转发过去。
第一步骤,获取请求调度器。
org.apache.catalina.connector.Request#getRequestDispatcher(String)
- public RequestDispatcher getRequestDispatcher(String path) {
- if (request == null) {
- throw new IllegalStateException(
- sm.getString("requestFacade.nullRequest"));
- }
- if (Globals.IS_SECURITY_ENABLED){
- return (RequestDispatcher)AccessController.doPrivileged(
- new GetRequestDispatcherPrivilegedAction(path));
- } else {
- return request.getRequestDispatcher(path);
- }
方法行为:把获取RequestDispatcher的任务交个内部的request。它们之间的关系如下所示
org.apache.catalina.connector.RequestFacade和类org.apache.catalina.connector.Request都是实现了javax.servlet.http.HttpServletRequest接口,而RequestFacade内部有包装了个Request,对Request的访问做了些控制,应该是代理模式
org.apache.catalina.connector.Request#getRequestDispatcher(String)
- public RequestDispatcher getRequestDispatcher(String path) {
- if (path.startsWith("/"))
- return (context.getServletContext().getRequestDispatcher(path));
- //省略了部分代码
- return (context.getServletContext().getRequestDispatcher(relative));
- }
方法行为:把绝对路径转换成相对路径,最终的格式如“/testForward”。若已经是这种格式的相对路径,就无需再转换了。
接下来就转交给ServletContext来处理,ServletContext是web项目的一个上下文,包含所有的Servlet集合,还定义了一些Servlet与容器之间交互的接口。
org.apache.catalina.core.ApplicationContext#getRequestDispatcher(String)
- public RequestDispatcher getRequestDispatcher(String path) {
- //省去部分代码
- context.getMapper().map(uriMB, mappingData);
- //省去部分代码
- Wrapper wrapper = (Wrapper) mappingData.wrapper;
- String wrapperPath = mappingData.wrapperPath.toString();
- String pathInfo = mappingData.pathInfo.toString();
- mappingData.recycle();
- // Construct a RequestDispatcher to process this request
- return new ApplicationDispatcher
- (wrapper, uriCC.toString(), wrapperPath, pathInfo,
- queryString, null);
- }
方法行为:根据路径名“path”找到一个包含有Servlet的Wrapper,最后实例化一个ApplicationDispatcher,并且返回该ApplicationDispatcher。
该方法里非常关键的一行:context.getMapper().map(uriMB, mappingData)。
Mapper的类定义我不知道如何描述,就贴上原文吧:Mapper, which implements the servlet API mapping rules (which are derived from the HTTP rules)。
不过只想了解forward的原理,熟悉map函数就够了。
org.apache.tomcat.util.http.mapper.Mapper#map(org.apache.tomcat.util.buf.MessageBytes, org.apache.tomcat.util.http.mapper.MappingData):
- public void map(MessageBytes uri, MappingData mappingData)
- throws Exception {
- uri.toChars();
- CharChunk uricc = uri.getCharChunk();
- uricc.setLimit(-1);
- internalMapWrapper(context, uricc, mappingData);
- }
方法行为:。。。。。。。就介绍下参数吧,uri可以理解是path(“/testforward”)的一个变形,而mappingData用于存储当前线程用到的部分数据。该函数是没有返回值的,处理之后的结果就是存放到mappingData里的。
org.apache.tomcat.util.http.mapper.Mapper#internalMapWrapper(Mapper$Context,org.apache.tomcat.util.buf.CharChunk, org.apache.tomcat.util.http.mapper.MappingData):
- private final void internalMapWrapper(Context context, CharChunk path,
- MappingData mappingData)
- throws Exception {
- int pathOffset = path.getOffset();
- int pathEnd = path.getEnd();
- int servletPath = pathOffset;
- boolean noServletPath = false;
- int length = context.name.length();
- if (length != (pathEnd - pathOffset)) {
- servletPath = pathOffset + length;
- } else {
- noServletPath = true;
- path.append('/');
- pathOffset = path.getOffset();
- pathEnd = path.getEnd();
- servletPath = pathOffset+length;
- }
- path.setOffset(servletPath);
- // Rule 1 -- Exact Match
- Wrapper[] exactWrappers = context.exactWrappers;
- internalMapExactWrapper(exactWrappers, path, mappingData);
- // Rule 2 -- Prefix Match
- boolean checkJspWelcomeFiles = false;
- Wrapper[] wildcardWrappers = context.wildcardWrappers;
- if (mappingData.wrapper == null) {
- internalMapWildcardWrapper(wildcardWrappers, context.nesting,
- path, mappingData);
- if (mappingData.wrapper != null && mappingData.jspWildCard) {
- char[] buf = path.getBuffer();
- if (buf[pathEnd - 1] == '/') {
- /*
- * Path ending in '/' was mapped to JSP servlet based on
- * wildcard match (e.g., as specified in url-pattern of a
- * jsp-property-group.
- * Force the context's welcome files, which are interpreted
- * as JSP files (since they match the url-pattern), to be
- * considered. See Bugzilla 27664.
- */
- mappingData.wrapper = null;
- checkJspWelcomeFiles = true;
- } else {
- // See Bugzilla 27704
- mappingData.wrapperPath.setChars(buf, path.getStart(),
- path.getLength());
- mappingData.pathInfo.recycle();
- }
- }
- }
- if(mappingData.wrapper == null && noServletPath) {
- // The path is empty, redirect to "/"
- mappingData.redirectPath.setChars
- (path.getBuffer(), pathOffset, pathEnd);
- path.setEnd(pathEnd - 1);
- return;
- }
- // Rule 3 -- Extension Match
- Wrapper[] extensionWrappers = context.extensionWrappers;
- if (mappingData.wrapper == null && !checkJspWelcomeFiles) {
- internalMapExtensionWrapper(extensionWrappers, path, mappingData);
- }
- // Rule 4 -- Welcome resources processing for servlets
- if (mappingData.wrapper == null) {
- boolean checkWelcomeFiles = checkJspWelcomeFiles;
- if (!checkWelcomeFiles) {
- char[] buf = path.getBuffer();
- checkWelcomeFiles = (buf[pathEnd - 1] == '/');
- }
- if (checkWelcomeFiles) {
- for (int i = 0; (i < context.welcomeResources.length)
- && (mappingData.wrapper == null); i++) {
- path.setOffset(pathOffset);
- path.setEnd(pathEnd);
- path.append(context.welcomeResources[i], 0,
- context.welcomeResources[i].length());
- path.setOffset(servletPath);
- // Rule 4a -- Welcome resources processing for exact macth
- internalMapExactWrapper(exactWrappers, path, mappingData);
- // Rule 4b -- Welcome resources processing for prefix match
- if (mappingData.wrapper == null) {
- internalMapWildcardWrapper
- (wildcardWrappers, context.nesting,
- path, mappingData);
- }
- // Rule 4c -- Welcome resources processing
- // for physical folder
- if (mappingData.wrapper == null
- && context.resources != null) {
- Object file = null;
- String pathStr = path.toString();
- try {
- file = context.resources.lookup(pathStr);
- } catch(NamingException nex) {
- // Swallow not found, since this is normal
- }
- if (file != null && !(file instanceof DirContext) ) {
- internalMapExtensionWrapper(extensionWrappers,
- path, mappingData);
- if (mappingData.wrapper == null
- && context.defaultWrapper != null) {
- mappingData.wrapper =
- context.defaultWrapper.object;
- mappingData.requestPath.setChars
- (path.getBuffer(), path.getStart(),
- path.getLength());
- mappingData.wrapperPath.setChars
- (path.getBuffer(), path.getStart(),
- path.getLength());
- mappingData.requestPath.setString(pathStr);
- mappingData.wrapperPath.setString(pathStr);
- }
- }
- }
- }
- path.setOffset(servletPath);
- path.setEnd(pathEnd);
- }
- }
方法行为:通过“path”从“context”里找到对应的Servlet,存放到“mappingData”里。
可以看到这里有7个匹配Servlet规则:
1. Rule 1 -- Exact Match:精确匹配,匹配web.xml配置的格式如“<url-pattern>/testQiu</url-pattern>”的Servlet
2. Rule 2 -- Prefix Matcha:前缀匹配,匹配的Servlet格式如“<url-pattern>/testQiu/*</url-pattern>”
3. Rule 3 -- Extension Match:扩展匹配,匹配jsp或者jspx
4. ---Rule 4a -- Welcome resources processing for exact macth:
5. ---Rule 4b -- Welcome resources processing for prefix match:
6. ---Rule 4c -- Welcome resources processing for physical folder:
7. Rule 7 --如果前面6条都没匹配到,那就返回org.apache.catalina.servlets.DefaultServlet。
其实这里真正的匹配的是Wapper,而不是Servlet,因为Wapper最重要的一个属性就是Servlet,说成“匹配Servlet”是为了更容易的表达。
至此返回RequestDispatcher就结束了。
接下来就是讲解RequestDispatcher.forward了。Forward的就不贴出全部的源代码,只贴一些重要的片段,绝大部分的逻辑都在org.apache.catalina.core.ApplicationDispatcher类里。
先描述下过程:
1. 设置request里的部分属性值,如:请求的路径、参数等。
2. 组装一个FilterChain链,调用doFilter方法。
3. 最后根据实际情况调用Filter的doFilter函数或者Servlet的service函数。
注:FilterChain和Filter是两个不同的接口,两个接口的UML
org.apache.catalina.core.ApplicationDispatcher#doForward(ServletRequest,ServletResponse):
- private void doForward(ServletRequest request, ServletResponse response)
- throws ServletException, IOException
- //省略了部分代码
- // Handle an HTTP named dispatcher forward
- if ((servletPath == null) && (pathInfo == null)) {
- //省略了部分代码
- } else {// Handle an HTTP path-based forward
- ApplicationHttpRequest wrequest =
- (ApplicationHttpRequest) wrapRequest(state);
- String contextPath = context.getPath();
- HttpServletRequest hrequest = state.hrequest;
- if (hrequest.getAttribute(Globals.FORWARD_REQUEST_URI_ATTR) == null) {
- wrequest.setAttribute(Globals.FORWARD_REQUEST_URI_ATTR,
- hrequest.getRequestURI());
- wrequest.setAttribute(Globals.FORWARD_CONTEXT_PATH_ATTR,
- hrequest.getContextPath());
- wrequest.setAttribute(Globals.FORWARD_SERVLET_PATH_ATTR,
- hrequest.getServletPath());
- wrequest.setAttribute(Globals.FORWARD_PATH_INFO_ATTR,
- hrequest.getPathInfo());
- wrequest.setAttribute(Globals.FORWARD_QUERY_STRING_ATTR,
- hrequest.getQueryString());
- }
- wrequest.setContextPath(contextPath);
- wrequest.setRequestURI(requestURI);
- wrequest.setServletPath(servletPath);
- wrequest.setPathInfo(pathInfo);
- if (queryString != null) {
- wrequest.setQueryString(queryString);
- wrequest.setQueryParams(queryString);
- }
- processRequest(request,response,state);
- }
- }
- //省略了部分代码
- }
第1步:设置新的request的属性:
- wrequest.setContextPath(contextPath);
- wrequest.setRequestURI(requestURI);
- wrequest.setServletPath(servletPath);
- wrequest.setPathInfo(pathInfo);
- if (queryString != null) {
- wrequest.setQueryString(queryString);
- wrequest.setQueryParams(queryString);
- }
第2步:组装FitlerChain链,根据web.xml配置信息,是否决定添加Filter----
<filter-mapping>
<filter-name>struts2</filter-name>
<url-pattern>/*</url-pattern>
<dispatcher>REQUEST</dispatcher>
</filter-mapping>
org.apache.catalina.core.ApplicationFilterFactory#createFilterChain(ServletRequest, Wrapper, Servlet):
- public ApplicationFilterChain createFilterChain(ServletRequest request, Wrapper wrapper, Servlet servlet) {
- //省略部分代码
- filterChain = new ApplicationFilterChain();
- }
- filterChain.setServlet(servlet);
- filterChain.setSupport
- (((StandardWrapper)wrapper).getInstanceSupport());
- // Acquire the filter mappings for this Context
- StandardContext context = (StandardContext) wrapper.getParent();
- FilterMap filterMaps[] = context.findFilterMaps();
- // If there are no filter mappings, we are done
- if ((filterMaps == null) || (filterMaps.length == 0))
- return (filterChain);
- // Acquire the information we will need to match filter mappings
- String servletName = wrapper.getName();
- // Add the relevant path-mapped filters to this filter chain
- for (int i = 0; i < filterMaps.length; i++) {
- if (!matchDispatcher(filterMaps[i] ,dispatcher)) {
- continue;
- }
- if (!matchFiltersURL(filterMaps[i], requestPath))
- continue;
- ApplicationFilterConfig filterConfig = (ApplicationFilterConfig)
- context.findFilterConfig(filterMaps[i].getFilterName());
- if (filterConfig == null) {
- ; // FIXME - log configuration problem
- continue;
- }
- boolean isCometFilter = false;
- if (comet) {
- try {
- isCometFilter = filterConfig.getFilter() instanceof CometFilter;
- } catch (Exception e) {
- // Note: The try catch is there because getFilter has a lot of
- // declared exceptions. However, the filter is allocated much
- // earlier
- }
- if (isCometFilter) {
- filterChain.addFilter(filterConfig);
- }
- } else {
- filterChain.addFilter(filterConfig);
- }
- }
- //省略部分代码
- // Return the completed filter chain
- return (filterChain);
- }
如果是<dispatcher>REQUEST</dispatcher>,那就不添加Filter,默认设置是REQUEST
如果是<dispatcher>FORWARD</dispatcher>,添加Filter到FilterChain。
第3步:调用doFilter或者service,代码删减了很多。
org.apache.catalina.core.ApplicationFilterChain#doFilter(ServletRequest, ServletResponse):
- public void doFilter(ServletRequest request, ServletResponse response)throws IOException, ServletException {
- internalDoFilter(request,response);
- }
- org.apache.catalina.core.ApplicationFilterChain#internalDoFilter(ServletRequest, ServletResponse)
- private void internalDoFilter(ServletRequest request,
- ServletResponse response)
- throws IOException, ServletException {
- // Call the next filter if there is one
- if (pos < n) {
- filter.doFilter(request, response, this);
- return;
- }
- servlet.service((HttpServletRequest) request,(HttpServletResponse) response);
- }
如果我对Filter非常了解的,根本就不需要花那么多时间去查看tomcat源代码。只要在web.xml增加一点配置就OK了。
- <filter-mapping>
- <filter-name>struts2</filter-name>
- <url-pattern>/*</url-pattern>
- <dispatcher>REQUEST</dispatcher>
- <dispatcher>FORWARD</dispatcher>
- </filter-mapping>
