Package org.apache.catalina.valves

This package contains a variety of small Valve implementations that do not warrant being packaged separately.

Interface Summary

Interface	Description
AbstractAccessLogValve.AccessLogElement	AccessLogElement writes the partial message into the buffer.
AbstractAccessLogValve.CachedElement	Marks an AccessLogElement as needing to be have the value cached at the start of the request rather than just recorded at the end as the source data for the element may not be available at the end of the request.

Class Summary

Class	Description
AbstractAccessLogValve	Abstract implementation of the Valve interface that generates a web server access log with the detailed line contents matching a configurable pattern.
AbstractAccessLogValve.ByteSentElement	write bytes sent, excluding HTTP headers - %b, %B
AbstractAccessLogValve.ConnectionStatusElement	Write connection status when response is completed - %X
AbstractAccessLogValve.CookieElement	write a specific cookie - %{xxx}c
AbstractAccessLogValve.DateFormatCache	Cache structure for formatted timestamps based on seconds.
AbstractAccessLogValve.ElapsedTimeElement	write time taken to process the request - %D, %T
AbstractAccessLogValve.FirstByteTimeElement	write time until first byte is written (commit time) in millis - %F
AbstractAccessLogValve.HeaderElement	write incoming headers - %{xxx}i
AbstractAccessLogValve.HttpStatusCodeElement	write HTTP status code of the response - %s
AbstractAccessLogValve.LocalAddrElement	write local IP address - %A
AbstractAccessLogValve.LogicalUserNameElement	write remote logical username from identd (always returns '-') - %l
AbstractAccessLogValve.MethodElement	write request method (GET, POST, etc.) - %m
AbstractAccessLogValve.QueryElement	write Query string (prepended with a '?'
AbstractAccessLogValve.RequestAttributeElement	write an attribute in the ServletRequest - %{xxx}r
AbstractAccessLogValve.RequestElement	write first line of the request (method and request URI) - %r
AbstractAccessLogValve.RequestURIElement	write requested URL path - %U
AbstractAccessLogValve.ResponseHeaderElement	write a specific response header - %{xxx}o
AbstractAccessLogValve.SessionAttributeElement	write an attribute in the HttpSession - %{xxx}s
AbstractAccessLogValve.SessionIdElement	write user session ID - %S
AbstractAccessLogValve.StringElement	write any string
AbstractAccessLogValve.ThreadNameElement	write thread name - %I
AbstractAccessLogValve.UserElement	write remote user that was authenticated (if any), else '-' - %u
AccessLogValve	This is a concrete implementation of AbstractAccessLogValve that outputs the access log to a file.
Constants	Manifest constants for the org.apache.catalina.valves package.
Constants.AccessLog
CrawlerSessionManagerValve	Web crawlers can trigger the creation of many thousands of sessions as they crawl a site which may result in significant memory consumption.
ErrorReportValve	Implementation of a Valve that outputs HTML error pages.
ExtendedAccessLogValve	An implementation of the W3c Extended Log File Format.
ExtendedAccessLogValve.CookieElement
ExtendedAccessLogValve.DateElement
ExtendedAccessLogValve.PatternTokenizer
ExtendedAccessLogValve.RequestAttributeElement
ExtendedAccessLogValve.RequestHeaderElement
ExtendedAccessLogValve.RequestParameterElement
ExtendedAccessLogValve.ResponseAllHeaderElement	write a specific response header - x-O(xxx)
ExtendedAccessLogValve.ResponseHeaderElement
ExtendedAccessLogValve.ServletContextElement
ExtendedAccessLogValve.SessionAttributeElement
ExtendedAccessLogValve.TimeElement
HealthCheckValve	Simple Valve that responds to cloud orchestrators health checks.
JDBCAccessLogValve	This Tomcat extension logs server access directly to a database, and can be used instead of the regular file-based access log implemented in AccessLogValve.
LoadBalancerDrainingValve	A Valve to detect situations where a load-balanced node receiving a request has been deactivated by the load balancer (JK_LB_ACTIVATION=DIS) and the incoming request has no valid session.
PersistentValve	Valve that implements per-request session persistence.
RemoteAddrValve	Concrete implementation of RequestFilterValve that filters based on the string representation of the remote client's IP address optionally combined with the server connector port number.
RemoteCIDRValve
RemoteHostValve	Concrete implementation of RequestFilterValve that filters based on the remote client's host name optionally combined with the server connector port number.
RemoteIpValve	Tomcat port of mod_remoteip, this valve replaces the apparent client remote IP address and hostname for the request with the IP address list presented by a proxy or a load balancer via a request headers (e.g.
RequestFilterValve	Implementation of a Valve that performs filtering based on comparing the appropriate request property (selected based on which subclass you choose to configure into your Container's pipeline) against the regular expressions configured for this Valve.
SemaphoreValve	Implementation of a Valve that limits concurrency.
SSLValve	When using mod_proxy_http, the client SSL information is not included in the protocol (unlike mod_jk and mod_proxy_ajp).
StuckThreadDetectionValve	This valve allows to detect requests that take a long time to process, which might indicate that the thread that is processing it is stuck.
ValveBase	Convenience base class for implementations of the Valve interface.

Package org.apache.catalina.valves Description

This package contains a variety of small Valve implementations that do not warrant being packaged separately. In addition, there is a convenience base class (ValveBase) that supports the usual mechanisms for including custom Valves into the corresponding Pipeline.

Other packages that include Valves include org.apache.tomcat.logger and org.apache.tomcat.security.
