## Interface HttpServletResponse

- All Superinterfaces:
    ServletResponse
  All Known Implementing Classes:
    HttpServletResponseWrapper

      public interface HttpServletResponse
      extends ServletResponse

  Extends the `ServletResponse` interface to provide HTTP-specific functionality in sending a response. For example, it has methods to access HTTP headers and cookies.

  The servlet container creates an `HttpServletResponse` object and passes it as an argument to the servlet's service methods (`doGet`, `doPost`, etc).

  - ### Method Detail

    - #### addCookie

          void addCookie(Cookie cookie)

      Adds the specified cookie to the response. This method can be called multiple times to set more than one cookie.
      Parameters:
        `cookie` - the Cookie to return to the client

    - #### containsHeader

          boolean containsHeader(java.lang.String name)

      Returns a boolean indicating whether the named response header has already been set.
      Parameters:
        `name` - the header name
      Returns:
        `true` if the named response header has already been set; `false` otherwise

    - #### encodeURL

          java.lang.String encodeURL(java.lang.String url)

      Encodes the specified URL by including the session ID in it, or, if encoding is not needed, returns the URL unchanged. The implementation of this method includes the logic to determine whether the session ID needs to be encoded in the URL. For example, if the browser supports cookies, or session tracking is turned off, URL encoding is unnecessary.

      For robust session tracking, all URLs emitted by a servlet should be run through this method. Otherwise, URL rewriting cannot be used with browsers which do not support cookies.

      Parameters:
        `url` - the url to be encoded.
      Returns:
        the encoded URL if encoding is needed; the unchanged URL otherwise.

    - #### encodeRedirectURL

          java.lang.String encodeRedirectURL(java.lang.String url)

      Encodes the specified URL for use in the `sendRedirect` method or, if encoding is not needed, returns the URL unchanged. The implementation of this method includes the logic to determine whether the session ID needs to be encoded in the URL. Because the rules for making this determination can differ from those used to decide whether to encode a normal link, this method is separated from the `encodeURL` method.

      All URLs sent to the `HttpServletResponse.sendRedirect` method should be run through this method. Otherwise, URL rewriting cannot be used with browsers which do not support cookies.

      Parameters:
        `url` - the url to be encoded.
      Returns:
        the encoded URL if encoding is needed; the unchanged URL otherwise.
      See Also:
        `sendRedirect(java.lang.String)`, `encodeUrl(java.lang.String)`

    - #### encodeUrl

          java.lang.String encodeUrl(java.lang.String url)

      Deprecated. As of version 2.1, use encodeURL(String url) instead
      Parameters:
        `url` - the url to be encoded.
      Returns:
        the encoded URL if encoding is needed; the unchanged URL otherwise.

    - #### encodeRedirectUrl

          java.lang.String encodeRedirectUrl(java.lang.String url)

      Deprecated. As of version 2.1, use encodeRedirectURL(String url) instead
      Parameters:
        `url` - the url to be encoded.
      Returns:
        the encoded URL if encoding is needed; the unchanged URL otherwise.

    - #### sendError

          void sendError(int sc,
                       java.lang.String msg)
                         throws java.io.IOException

      Sends an error response to the client using the specified status code and clears the output buffer. The server defaults to creating the response to look like an HTML-formatted server error page containing the specified message, setting the content type to "text/html", leaving cookies and other headers unmodified. If an error-page declaration has been made for the web application corresponding to the status code passed in, it will be served back in preference to the suggested msg parameter.

      If the response has already been committed, this method throws an IllegalStateException. After using this method, the response should be considered to be committed and should not be written to.

      Parameters:
        `sc` - the error status code
        `msg` - the descriptive message
      Throws:
        `java.io.IOException` - If an input or output exception occurs
        `java.lang.IllegalStateException` - If the response was committed

    - #### sendError

          void sendError(int sc)
                         throws java.io.IOException

      Sends an error response to the client using the specified status code and clears the buffer. This is equivalent to calling `sendError(int, String)` with the same status code and `null` for the message.
      Parameters:
        `sc` - the error status code
      Throws:
        `java.io.IOException` - If an input or output exception occurs
        `java.lang.IllegalStateException` - If the response was committed before this method call

    - #### sendRedirect

          void sendRedirect(java.lang.String location)
                            throws java.io.IOException

      Sends a temporary redirect response to the client using the specified redirect location URL. This method can accept relative URLs; the servlet container must convert the relative URL to an absolute URL before sending the response to the client. If the location is relative without a leading '/' the container interprets it as relative to the current request URI. If the location is relative with a leading '/' the container interprets it as relative to the servlet container root.

      If the response has already been committed, this method throws an IllegalStateException. After using this method, the response should be considered to be committed and should not be written to.

      Parameters:
        `location` - the redirect location URL
      Throws:
        `java.io.IOException` - If an input or output exception occurs
        `java.lang.IllegalStateException` - If the response was committed or if a partial URL is given and cannot be converted into a valid URL

    - #### setDateHeader

          void setDateHeader(java.lang.String name,
                           long date)

      Sets a response header with the given name and date-value. The date is specified in terms of milliseconds since the epoch. If the header had already been set, the new value overwrites the previous one. The `containsHeader` method can be used to test for the presence of a header before setting its value.
      Parameters:
        `name` - the name of the header to set
        `date` - the assigned date value

                          int value)

      Sets a response header with the given name and integer value. If the header had already been set, the new value overwrites the previous one. The `containsHeader` method can be used to test for the presence of a header before setting its value.
      Parameters:
        `name` - the name of the header
        `value` - the assigned integer value
      See Also:
        `containsHeader(java.lang.String)`, `addIntHeader(java.lang.String, int)`

    - #### addIntHeader

          void addIntHeader(java.lang.String name,
                          int value)

      Adds a response header with the given name and integer value. This method allows response headers to have multiple values.

    - #### setStatus

          void setStatus(int sc)

      Sets the status code for this response. This method is used to set the return status code when there is no error (for example, for the status codes SC_OK or SC_MOVED_TEMPORARILY). If there is an error, and the caller wishes to invoke an error-page defined in the web application, the `sendError` method should be used instead.

      The container clears the buffer and sets the Location header, preserving cookies and other headers.

      Parameters:
        `sc` - the status code
      See Also:
        `sendError(int, java.lang.String)`

    - #### setStatus

          void setStatus(int sc,
                       java.lang.String sm)

      Deprecated. As of version 2.1, due to ambiguous meaning of the message parameter. To set a status code use `setStatus(int)`, to send an error with a description use `sendError(int, String)`.
      Sets the status code and message for this response.
      Parameters:
        `sc` - the status code
        `sm` - the status message

    - #### getStatus

          int getStatus()

      Get the HTTP status code for this Response.
      Returns:
        The HTTP status code for this Response
      Since:
        Servlet 3.0

    - #### getHeader

          java.lang.String getHeader(java.lang.String name)

      Return the value for the specified header, or `null` if this header has not been set. If more than one value was added for this name, only the first is returned; use `getHeaders(String)` to retrieve all of them.
      Parameters:
        `name` - Header name to look up
      Returns:
        The first value for the specified header. This is the raw value so if multiple values are specified in the first header then they will be returned as a single header value .
      Since:
        Servlet 3.0

    - #### getHeaders

          java.util.Collection<java.lang.String> getHeaders(java.lang.String name)

      Return a Collection of all the header values associated with the specified header name.
      Parameters:
        `name` - Header name to look up
      Returns:
        The values for the specified header. These are the raw values so if multiple values are specified in a single header that will be returned as a single header value.
      Since:
        Servlet 3.0

    - #### getHeaderNames

          java.util.Collection<java.lang.String> getHeaderNames()

      Get the header names set for this HTTP response.
      Returns:
        The header names set for this HTTP response.
