Methods Summary
public static java.lang.StringgetRelativePath(javax.servlet.http.HttpServletRequest request)
Return the relative path associated with this servlet. Taken from DefaultServlet.java. Perhaps this should be put in org.apache.catalina.util somewhere? Seems like it would be widely used.

param
request The servlet request we are processing

        // Are we being processed by a RequestDispatcher.include()?
        if (request.getAttribute("javax.servlet.include.request_uri") != null) {
            String result = (String)request
                    .getAttribute("javax.servlet.include.path_info");
            if (result == null)
                result = (String)request
                        .getAttribute("javax.servlet.include.servlet_path");
            if ((result == null) || (result.equals(""))) result = "/";
            return (result);
        }
        // No, extract the desired path directly from the request
        String result = request.getPathInfo();
        if (result == null) {
            result = request.getServletPath();
        }
        if ((result == null) || (result.equals(""))) {
            result = "/";
        }
        return normalize(result);
public static java.lang.Stringnormalize(java.lang.String path)
Return a context-relative path, beginning with a "/", that represents the canonical version of the specified path after ".." and "." elements are resolved out. If the specified path attempts to go outside the boundaries of the current context (i.e. too many ".." path elements are present), return null instead. This normalize should be the same as DefaultServlet.normalize, which is almost the same ( see source code below ) as RequestUtil.normalize. Do we need all this duplication?

param
path Path to be normalized

        if (path == null) return null;
        String normalized = path;
        //Why doesn't RequestUtil do this??
        // Normalize the slashes and add leading slash if necessary
        if (normalized.indexOf('\\") >= 0)
            normalized = normalized.replace('\\", '/");
        normalized = RequestUtil.normalize(path);
        return normalized;
