url change in restfull calls

[subodh gupta]

hi ranchers,

i am having a problem, what i am trying to do is:-

there are two web-application in my projects both deployed at different server and one is communicating to other via rest-full calls.

Now the problem is, while i am rendering the result from the second application the address in the address does't get changed i.e.

1) Application A & B has an controller servlet ServletA & ServletB respectively
2) Now ServletA calls ServletB and in turn gets the response jsp name which it opens(say A.jsp)
3) Everything goes well but the address bar's url doesn't get changed
4) one thing i don't wanna use send redirect

Can you help me solve this problem.

Why does it matter?

you don't want to use send redirect because you're worrying about the session sharing problem between A and B, do you?

if so, how about SSO?

there's a Central Authentication Service(CAS) that provided a SSO solution.


i hope that's been of some help.

have fun.

Hi,

I need to change the url because we have authentication at HTTPServer as well as at AppServer. The former uses regex based while the latter depends on the traditional session based. So, we need to change the url because of the former.

Their are majorly two reason i cannot use the sendRedirect listed below:

1) I will be tie consuming and we have a request time for each web-page which is already tough to achieve
2) Secondly i have to manage everything in a the session because request won't be persisting over the request

Also i won't be able to use the SSO because the delivery time is around the corner.
