Requests foo.jar

foo.jar

Java

Application

Sends foo.jar.pack.gz <-

CE=”pack200-gzip” CT=”application/java-archive

Example 1: Application reąuesting packed or compressed jar

foo.jar. pac k.gz

AE=”pack200-gzip, gzip’

foo.jar.gz

In the above example, the client reąuests a file foo.jar with AE="pack200-gzip, gzip", the server will search for the file f oo . j ar. pack. gz and send it and will set CE to

pack200-gzip.

foo.jar

Reąuests foo.jar

•-►

j ^ ^    AE=”pack200-gzip, gzip”

Application

foo.jar.gz

Example 2: Application reąuesting packed or compressed jar

In the above example, if f oo .jar. pack. gz is not found, the server will respond back with f oo .jar. gz, if found, and the CE will be set to gzip.

Reąuests foo.jar

foo.jar

Java

Application

Sends foo.pack.gz <-

CE=”pack200-gzip” CT=”application/j ava-archive

Example 3: Application reąuesting packed or compressed jar

AE=”pack200-gzip, gzip”

In the above example, if f oo .jar. pack. gz and f oo . j ar. gz is not found then the server will respond back with f oo . j ar and the CE will not be set or set to NULL.

In the above example, a legacy application (application without HTTP or Pack200 compression) reąuests f oo. j ar, and will continue to work seamlessly. Therefore it is recommended all the files f oo. j ar, foo. j ar. gz and f oo .jar. pack. gz be hosted..
