'Snoop' Sample Code

This page contains the venerable snoop servlet code (provided with most servlet containers as an example), broken into fragments.

Servlet init parameters

out.println("<h3>Servlet init parameters</h3>");
java.util.Enumeration e = getInitParameterNames();
while (e.hasMoreElements()) {
    String key = (String)e.nextElement();
    String value = getInitParameter(key);
    out.println("   " + key + " = " + value); 
}

Sample output:
No output by default.

Servlet Context Initialization Parameters

out.println("<h3>Context init parameters</h3>");
ServletContext context = getServletContext();
java.util.Enumeration enum = context.getInitParameterNames();
while (enum.hasMoreElements()) {
    String key = (String)enum.nextElement();
    Object value = context.getInitParameter(key);
    out.println("   " + key + " = " + value);
}

Sample output:
No output by default.

Servlet Context Attributes (Application Scope Variables)

out.println("<h3>Context attributes</h3>");
ServletContext context = getServletContext();
java.util.Enumeration enum = context.getAttributeNames();
while (enum.hasMoreElements()) {
    String key = (String)enum.nextElement();
    Object value = context.getAttribute(key);
    out.println("   " + key + " = " + value);
}

Sample output:

   javax.servlet.context.tempdir = D:\Java\jakarta-tomcat-3.2.1\work\127.0.0.2_8080
   sun.servlet.workdir = D:\Java\jakarta-tomcat-3.2.1\work\127.0.0.2_8080

Request Attributes (Page Scope Variables)

out.println("Request attributes:");
java.util.Enumeration e = request.getAttributeNames();
while (e.hasMoreElements()) {
    String key = (String)e.nextElement();
    Object value = request.getAttribute(key);
    out.println("   " + key + " = " + value);
}

Sample output:

Request attributes:
   javax.servlet.include.servlet_path = /sessions/9597eukak1.jsp
   javax.servlet.include.context_path =
   javax.servlet.include.request_uri = /sessions/9597eukak1.jsp

Request Headers

Enumeration e = request.getHeaderNames();
while (e.hasMoreElements()) {
    String key = (String)e.nextElement();
    String value = request.getHeader(key);
    out.println("   <b>" + key + "</b>: " + value);
}

Sample output (long lines are folded for clarity):

   Accept: application/vnd.ms-powerpoint, application/vnd.ms-excel,

Mostly Request Information

out.println("Servlet Name: " + getServletName());
out.println("Protocol: " + request.getProtocol().trim());
out.println("Scheme: " + request.getScheme());
out.println("Server Name: " + request.getServerName());
out.println("Server Port: " + request.getServerPort());
out.println("Server Info: " + getServletContext().getServerInfo());
out.println("Remote Addr: " + request.getRemoteAddr());
out.println("Remote Host: " + request.getRemoteHost());
out.println("Character Encoding: " + request.getCharacterEncoding());
out.println("Content Length: " + request.getContentLength());
out.println("Content Type: "+ request.getContentType());
out.println("Locale: "+ request.getLocale());
out.println("Default Response Buffer: "+ response.getBufferSize());
out.println("Request Is Secure: " + request.isSecure());
out.println("Auth Type: " + request.getAuthType());
out.println("HTTP Method: " + request.getMethod());
out.println("Remote User: " + request.getRemoteUser());
out.println("Request URI: " + request.getRequestURI());
out.println("Context Path: " + request.getContextPath());
out.println("Servlet Path: " + request.getServletPath());
out.println("Path Info: " + request.getPathInfo());
out.println("Path Trans: " + request.getPathTranslated());
out.println("Query String: " + request.getQueryString());

Sample Output (long lines are folded for clarity):

Request Parameters

out.println("Parameter names in this request:");
java.util.Enumeration e = request.getParameterNames();
while (e.hasMoreElements()) {
    String key = (String)e.nextElement();
    String[] values = request.getParameterValues(key);
    out.print("   " + key + " = ");
    for(int i = 0; i < values.length; i++) {
        out.print(values[i] + " ");
    }
    out.println();
}

Sample Output

This output can be a bit confusing until you realize that Zamples uses request parameters to perform its magic.

Parameter names in this request:
   imports =
   stylesheet = on
   cmd = out.println("Parameter names in this request:");
java.util.Enumeration e = request.getParameterNames();
while (e.hasMoreElements()) {
    String key = (String)e.nextElement();
    String[] values = request.getParameterValues(key);
    out.print("   " + key + " = ");
    for(int i = 0; i < values.length; i++) {
        out.print(values[i] + " ");
    }
    out.println();
}
   applet =
   format = Java
   pre = on

Request Headers

out.println("<h3>Request Headers</h3>");
java.util.Enumeration e = request.getHeaderNames();
while (e.hasMoreElements()) {
    String key = (String)e.nextElement();
    String value = request.getHeader(key);
    out.println("   " + key + ": " + value);
}

Sample Output (long lines are folded for clarity):

   Cookie: JSESSIONID=9597eukak1
   Cache-Control: no-cache
   Host: 127.0.0.2:8080
   Accept: application/vnd.ms-powerpoint, application/vnd.ms-excel, 
   application/msword, application/pdf, image/gif, image/x-xbitmap, 
   image/jpeg, image/pjpeg, */*
   User-Agent: Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 5.5; Windows NT 4.0)

   Content-Type: application/x-www-form-urlencoded
   Connection: Keep-Alive
   Referer: http://127.0.0.2:8080/JspIn.jsp

Request Cookies

Cookie[] cookies = request.getCookies();
for (int i = 0; i < cookies.length; i++) {
    Cookie cookie = cookies[i];
    out.println("   " + cookie.getName() + " = " + cookie.getValue());
}

Sample Output

JSESSIONID = 9597eukak1

Session Information

out.println("Requested Session Id: " + request.getRequestedSessionId());
HttpSession session = request.getSession();
out.println("Current Session Id: " + session.getId());
out.println("Session Created Time: " + session.getCreationTime());
out.println("Session Last Accessed Time: " + session.getLastAccessedTime());
out.println("Session Max Inactive Interval Seconds: " + session.getMaxInactiveInterval());
out.println("Session scoped attributes:");
java.util.Enumeration names = session.getAttributeNames();
while (names.hasMoreElements()) {
    String name = (String) names.nextElement();
    out.println("   " + name + " = " + session.getAttribute(name));
}

Sample Output

Requested Session Id: 9597eukak1
Current Session Id: 9597eukak1
Session Created Time: 985054073972
Session Last Accessed Time: 985057437578
