[Cosmo-dev] servlet working with caldav requests

[Lisa Dusseault]

Hi,

To extend Java Servlets to handle new Methods, like MKCALENDAR and  
REPORT, you have to go more basic than using "doPut" and "doGet"  
methods.  We did a custom implementation of the "service" method and  
then manually checked to see if the method was MKCALENDAR or REPORT,  
then dispatched to one of our own methods to handle the specific method.

Servlet.html#service(javax.servlet.ServletRequest,% 
20javax.servlet.ServletResponse)
