Hello Casper. Hello list.
Thank you for your answer and your advices.
Here is some interesting litterature related to my problem:
"Redirecting from a servlet to an exterior URL using a POST"
http://www.mail-archive.com/servlet-interest@java.sun.com/msg49110.html
Well as they say in that thread POST is not any more secure than showing
the parameters in the querystring (using GET) so no real reason for
using POST for that :)
Which led me to write a programmatic POST using this code:
"How to use HttpURLConnection POST data to web server?"
http://www.xyzws.com/Javafaq/how-to-use-httpurlconnection-post-data-to-web-server/139
And, in "SERVLET_2", I replaced the code (see my first post in this thread)
with this one:
You could also do it the other way around. Make F1 from Server1 POST to
J1.jsp (still on Server1), which then makes a similar POST request (with
the parameters necessary from F1) to Servlet_2, reads the result ("ok")
from the response coming from Servlet_2 and then display the right thing
in J1.jsp. That would be cleaner than letting the user shift from
Server1/app1 to Server2/app2 for good (where is the user supposed to
continue the browsing/work App1 (Server1) or App2(Server2)?)
I guess my thread's title is not really relevant anymore because this code
doesn't literally "pass" an object from one webapp to another running on two
different servers...
What I'm doing here is "redirecting from a servlet to an exterior URL using
a POST".
I'm not really displaying "something user specific / session specific" but
Casper's comments are very interesting and may prove useful in the future
for me.
My comments and suggestions are certainly relevant if one is trying to
accomplish something that needs to be secure (the user can't manipulate
the parameters/results to gain unauthorized access or escape payment but
still receive an item).
Thanks again :)
Best regards.
