Optional Valve to detect long-running web requests. --------------------------------------------------- Key: JBAS-3157 URL: https://jira.jboss.org/browse/JBAS-3157 Project: JBoss Application Server Issue Type: Feature Request Security Level: Public(Everyone can see) Components: Web (Tomcat) service Reporter: Stan Silvert Priority: Optional If a web teir request takes too long, a warning message is logged. A JBoss customer requests implementation of this feature which is currently included in WebSphere. This feature can be accomplished with a simple Valve. During the invoke method of the Valve, a Timer is set. If the Timer expires before the request is finished, a warning message is logged. The Valve pseudo code might go something like this: public void invoke(Request req, Response res) { set timer getNext().invoke(req, res); turn off timer }
