[Mario Scappaticci]

Hi lifters,
i would know if there's a way to convert a S.request object in a java HttpRequest.

thanks in advance

You should get S.request.request. This is a HTTPRequest which is
normally an instance of HTTPRequestServlet which has a req field that
contains the original HttpServletRequest.

My application use a function with the following signature:

function(param:javax.servlet.http.httpservletrequest)

val r :Box[javax.servlet.http.HttpServletRequest] = for {
lr <- S.request
sr <- Box.isA(lr.request, classOf[provider.servlet.HTTPRequestServlet])
} yield sr.req

r.foreach(r => function(r))

Is this inside a CometActor? If so you're not seeing the
HttpServletRequest but the OfflineRequestSnapshot since you're running
outside the original request cycle. But the original request is
available from the OfflineRequestSnapshot.req value. See the source for
details :-)

Hi All,
    I finally found out why it wasn't working. My snippet was being lazy loaded. I removed lazy loading and the conversion to HttpServletRequest works. Thanks everyone for your pointers.

Cheers

Hi,
   I tried the posted code before posing my question and it doesn't work. Also I did have a look at the source code for OfflineRequestSnapshot before posting and it doesn't expose a "req" or "request" field. Is there any workable way of getting access to the HttpServletRequest object?

Thanks

Aahh you're right of course. First off the OfflineRequestSnapshot class
is private and the req field is not exposed. Sorry, my bad.

The question is then: Why do you need the HttpServletRequest? Much of
what you can do is not available in the context of an
OfflineRequestSnapshot (since you're not running the original request) and most (all?) info is exposed on the
HTTPRequest.
