HttpServletResponse state after response.redirect() Method call

[Faisal]

Hi all,
I have a questation: what happens when one calls the
response.redirect() method of HttpServletResponse, to the state of the
HttpServletResponse object??
What if an IOException is raised on calling this method can one set any
other Http-Header for example if an IOException is raised on calling
this method can one call the response.sendError message in the catch
block???

Thanks and Regards

if there is an IOException this means that there is an input/output
error, and writing further to the response stream might be not successful

Have you tried a simple test case to answer your own question?
