	I think your problem might be because you are trying to print bytes
cast to characters.  Try using the write method instead.

	Also, to get a speed up I would suggest reading and writing arrays
of bytes at a time (maybe 500 to 2000 bytes) - it greatly reduces the number
of system calls involved.

Subject: Hi Ho - Problem with ServletOutputStream in Tomcat


I ve created an Servlet that routes Requests and Responses to and from
another Server.

When i try to get a Image through this Servlet i get an Error 500. I coded
the app as described in the j2ee docu for sending binary data.

maybee a little code snipplet and the error trace helps to understand

http://127.0.0.1:8080/maria/portal/zmr/javalogo52x88.gif

this is the url -- http://127.0.0.1:8080 - is my Tomcat instance
/maria/portal - is my proxy servlet
/zmr/javalogo52x88.gif is the image i want to display in my browser -> but
/zmr is another webapplication on another tomcat server


heres the code for the binary data receiving and sending to the client
----------------
        // Setting the Headers for the Client same as the Servlet received
them from the other server
        while ((strHeaderKey = HttpUrlCon.getHeaderFieldKey(iCounter)) !=
null)
        {
            strHeaderValue = HttpUrlCon.getHeaderField(iCounter);

            LogIt("ResponseHeader - Value: " + strHeaderKey + " - " +
strHeaderValue);
            response.setHeader(strHeaderKey,strHeaderValue);

            iCounter +=1;
        }

	  // figuring out which type of data the servlet is getting
        if (HttpUrlCon.getContentType().equals("text/html"))
        {
	      // Text or HTML -> thats where i use the PrintWriter
            PrintWriter out = response.getWriter();
            int iByte;
            while ((iByte = brInput.read()) != -1)
            {
                out.print((char) iByte);
            }
        }
        else
        {
            try
            {
   	          // Everything else assuming its binary data so i use
ServletOutputStream
                ServletOutputStream out =
((ServletResponse)response).getOutputStream();
                int iByte;
                while ((iByte = brInput.read()) != -1)
                {
                    out.print((char) iByte);
                }
            }
            catch (IOException e)
            {
                this.log("IOException !!",e);
            }
        }

--------------------


please help me, its important and i dont know how to solve this problem - in
my opinion its a problem in the
org.apache.tomcat.core.BufferedServletOutputStream Class ?? why does it need
a ISO 8859_1 Charset for Binary Data ???

greetings
