A small app containing a servlet that can stream images from within the web application's directory structure using getResourceAsStream. Because the resources (images in this case) can only be accessed via the StreamServlet this technique could be used to allow access to specific resources to users who are logged into your application and deny them to the general public.

To Run:

Download SimpleStream.war to your TOMCAT_INSTALL/webapps directory. If you're using MSIE, make sure it doesn't change the extension to ".zip".

Then, click on this link: http://localhost:8080/SimpleStream
