# 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 Details

  - ### 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(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

    String encodeURL(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

    String encodeRedirectURL(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(String)`
      - `encodeUrl(String)`

  - ### encodeUrl

    @Deprecated String encodeUrl(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

    @Deprecated String encodeRedirectUrl(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, String msg) throws 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:
      `IOException` - If an input or output exception occurs
      `IllegalStateException` - If the response was committed

  - ### sendError

    void sendError(int sc) throws 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:
      `IOException` - If an input or output exception occurs
      `IllegalStateException` - If the response was committed before this method call

  - ### sendRedirect

    void sendRedirect(String location) throws IOException
    Sends a redirect response to the client using the specified redirect location URL with the status code `SC_FOUND` 302 (Found), clears the response buffer and commits the response. The response buffer will be replaced with a short hypertext note as per RFC 9110.

    This method has no effect if called from an include.

    This method accepts both relative and absolute URLs. Absolute URLs passed to this method are used as provided as the redirect location URL. Relative URLs are converted to absolute URLs. If converting a relative URL to an absolute URL then:

    - 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 location is relative with two leading '/' the container interprets it as a network-path reference (see RFC 3986: Uniform Resource Identifier (URI): Generic Syntax, section 4.2 "Relative Reference").

    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 (may be absolute or relative)
    Throws:
      `IOException` - If an input or output exception occurs
      `IllegalArgumentException` - If a relative URL is given and cannot be converted into an absolute URL
      `IllegalStateException` - If the response was already committed when this method was called

  - ### setDateHeader

    void setDateHeader(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
    See Also:
      - `containsHeader(String)`

    Parameters:
      `name` - the name of the header to set
      `date` - the additional date value
    See Also:
      - `setDateHeader(String, long)`

  - ### setHeader

    void setHeader(String name, String value)
    Sets a response header with the given name and 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 header value If it contains octet string, it should be encoded according to RFC 2047 (http://www.ietf.org/rfc/rfc2047.txt)

      `name` - the name of the header
      `value` - the additional header value If it contains octet string, it should be encoded according to RFC 2047 (http://www.ietf.org/rfc/rfc2047.txt)
    See Also:
      - `setHeader(String, String)`

  - ### setIntHeader

    void setIntHeader(String name, 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(String)`
      - `addIntHeader(String, int)`

  - ### addIntHeader

    void addIntHeader(String name, int value)
    Adds a response header with the given name and integer value. This method allows response headers to have multiple values.
    Parameters:
      `name` - the name of the header
      `value` - the assigned integer value
    See Also:
      - `setIntHeader(String, int)`

  - ### 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, String)`

  - ### setStatus

    @Deprecated void setStatus(int sc, 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

    String getHeader(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

    Collection<String> getHeaders(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

    Collection<String> getHeaderNames()
    Get the header names set for this HTTP response.
    Returns:
      The header names set for this HTTP response.
    Since:
      Servlet 3.0

  - ### setTrailerFields

    default void setTrailerFields(Supplier<Map<String,String>> supplier)
    Configure the supplier of the trailer headers. The supplier will be called in the scope of the thread that completes the response.
    Trailers that don't meet the requirements of RFC 7230, section 4.1.2 will be ignored.
    The default implementation is a NO-OP.
    Parameters:
      `supplier` - The supplier for the trailer headers
    Throws:
      `IllegalStateException` - if this method is called when the underlying protocol does not support trailer headers or if using HTTP/1.1 and the response has already been committed
    Since:
      Servlet 4.0

  - ### getTrailerFields

    default Supplier<Map<String,String>> getTrailerFields()
    Obtain the supplier of the trailer headers.
    The default implementation returns null.
    Returns:
      The supplier for the trailer headers
    Since:
      Servlet 4.0
