HttpServletResponse

[Rasikow Gnaniyar]

I am doing web analytics program in java. I am able to get content
length using request object HttpServletRequest ( for. ex.
hytpReq.getContentLength() )

But I want to get response page's content length. Is there any object
response.getContentLength() using HttpServletResponse? or any idea How
to get Response page's content length?

In a servlet, you're supposed to generate the response to a request.
Since you generate the response (by writing to the output stream in
the servlet response), you're supposed to be able to set the content
length in the response by using the setContentLength method.

What response? The response you have not created yet? The response
is your output back to the client, so no there is no way for the
container to tell you how long your output is. It is useful for single
objects like images, not so much for pages.

It sounds to me like you are actually writing a bot to query a page
and analyzing the page, then sending your response elsewhere. If that
is the that case you are emulating a client, and you just read the
page in and count the characters.
