Given Rainer's comments, it seems like a reasonable course of action is to read bytes from the request until you hit a maximum that you set (say, 1MB). At that point, you can stop reading and return an error code to the client. I don't know about chunked encoding, but I seem to recall that Tomcat can't recycle a request connection until all the data has been read from the client (even if it is discarded). Hopefully, someone will correct me and that won't be the case. - -chris -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.9 (MingW32) Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - http://enigmail.mozdev.org iEYEARECAAYFAkm2hMwACgkQ9CaO5/Lv0PBx3wCgvJlnfFxQQ10oeGCJgdOAb0S1 47wAoJLxLpMK9PYJnArt1fX2dyKWpScb =Dbpb -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: users-unsubscr...@tomcat.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: users-h...@tomcat.apache.org
