I need a way to safely ensure that the HTTP Response Header Transfer-Encoding is always chunked.

I can set on to HttpServletResponse the Transfer-Encoding to Chunked via setHeader(“Transfer-Encoding”, “Chunked”). I believe I have to make sure the content-length is not set.

Am I missing anything?
Thanks.

(Background: this is a workaround for neither content-length and Transfer-Encoding "Chunked" being there sometimes. My service provider is willing to work with me on this.)
