[ https://issues.jboss.org/browse/AS7-4935?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.s... ] Remy Maucherat resolved AS7-4935. --------------------------------- Resolution: Rejected You should look into it more in a user forum, but asyncContext.dispatch("") is always invalid (should start with / since it is effectively ServletContext.getRequestDispatcher, relative to the ServletContext, not the request). About the request dispatcher use, it's risky but it might work [the request is available for any async operations until it is dispatched again, so it can reconstruct the path]. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA.

[ https://issues.jboss.org/browse/AS7-4935?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.s... ] Rossen Stoyanchev updated AS7-4935: ----------------------------------- Description: The scenario involves: # ServletA forwards to Servlet B # ServletB calls request.startAsync and starts new thread # New thread renders JSP For the JSP rendering if asyncContext.dispatch is used I get a blank page in the browser. However if request.getRequestDispatcher is used along with forward/include, rendering succeeds. I didn't see any exception in standalong/log/server.log but maybe I didn't enable logging correctly. Here you can find a project to use along with instructions: https://github.com/rstoyanchev/dispatch-test Beyond the bug I would like to confirm it is safe to use request.getRequestDispatcher from an async thread. The spec doesn't say otherwise and it seems to work in AS 7. This Servlet Spec discussion provides more detail behind this question: http://java.net/projects/servlet-spec/lists/users/archive/2012-05/message/10 was: The scenario involves: # ServletA forwards to Servlet B # ServletB calls request.startAsync and starts new thread # New thread renders JSP For the JSP rendering if asyncContext.dispatch("") is used I get a blank page in the browser.

This Servlet Spec discussion provides more detail behind this question: http://java.net/projects/servlet-spec/lists/users/archive/2012-05/message/10 Apologies if I wasn't clear. I meant to refer to the respective method names but I can see that "" is confusing. I am actually passing "/WEB-INF/view.jsp". This is [ServletA|https://github.com/rstoyanchev/dispatch-test/blob/master/src/mai...] that dispatches to ServletB. This is [ServletB|https://github.com/rstoyanchev/dispatch-test/blob/master/src/mai...] that dispatches to the JSP. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA.

You're doing async.dispatch, then async.complete, how do you expect that to do anything ? About the request dispatcher, you're not in a container thread, so you're on your own. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA.
