Summary: Messed up "Asynchronous writes" (sendfile) documentation
Product: Tomcat 6 Reporter: Bartek Jablonski <jabol20>
Component: DocumentationAssignee: Tomcat Developers Mailing List <dev>
Status: RESOLVED FIXED    
Severity: minor

Description Bartek Jablonski 2007-09-09 01:55:47 UTC 
Documentation states, that to use tomcat sendfile functionality, developer needs
to set _response_ attributes but its _request_ attributes, that must be set.

Also attribute for end offset is wrong - should it be
"org.apache.tomcat.sendfile.end"?

I think that it would be good to mention, that its necessery to set proper
response content length header.
