深入理解Tomcat系列之五：Context容器和Wrapper容器

前言

Context容器是一个Web项目的代表，主要管理Servlet实例，在Tomcat中Servlet实例是以Wrapper出现的。如今问题是怎样才干通过Context容器找到详细的Servlet呢？在解决问题之前。Context容器须要先启动，启动的过程就是载入个类资源文件以及打开子容器以及Pipeline管道的过程。启动Context容器后。就能够处理详细的请求了，详细是通过Request对象，从代码清单4-3的

Wrapper wrapper = request.getWrapper()

就能够看出来。

那么Context调用invoke方法后又发生什么了呢？详细运行的是org.apache.catalina.core.StandardContextValve的invoke方法。相当于进入了Context管道中，要開始通过管道中一个个闸门了。

StandardContext的处理流程能够用以下的图简化：



代码清单4-3：

/**
* Select the appropriate child Wrapper to process this request,
* based on the specified request URI.  If no matching Wrapper can
* be found, return an appropriate HTTP error.
*
* @param request Request to be processed
* @param response Response to be produced
*
* @exception IOException if an input/output error occurred
* @exception ServletException if a servlet error occurred
*/
@Override
public final void invoke(Request request, Response response)
throws IOException, ServletException {
// Disallow any direct access to resources under WEB-INF or META-INF
MessageBytes requestPathMB = request.getRequestPathMB();
if ((requestPathMB.startsWithIgnoreCase("/META-INF/", 0))
|| (requestPathMB.equalsIgnoreCase("/META-INF"))
|| (requestPathMB.startsWithIgnoreCase("/WEB-INF/", 0))
|| (requestPathMB.equalsIgnoreCase("/WEB-INF"))) {
response.sendError(HttpServletResponse.SC_NOT_FOUND);
return;
}
// Select the Wrapper to be used for this Request
Wrapper wrapper = request.getWrapper();
if (wrapper == null || wrapper.isUnavailable()) {
response.sendError(HttpServletResponse.SC_NOT_FOUND);
return;
}
// Acknowledge the request
try {
response.sendAcknowledgement();
} catch (IOException ioe) {
container.getLogger().error(sm.getString(
"standardContextValve.acknowledgeException"), ioe);
request.setAttribute(RequestDispatcher.ERROR_EXCEPTION, ioe);
response.sendError(HttpServletResponse.SC_INTERNAL_SERVER_ERROR);
return;
}

if (request.isAsyncSupported()) {
request.setAsyncSupported(wrapper.getPipeline().isAsyncSupported());
}
wrapper.getPipeline().getFirst().invoke(request, response);
}

禁止直接訪问WEB-INF或者META-INF文件夹下的资源

选择详细的Wrapper处理请求

返回一个确认响应

调用Wrapper容器的invoke方法，把处理请求交给StandardWrapperValve处理

Wrapper容器

Wrapper容器负责管理一个Servlet，包含Servlet的装载、初始化、资源回收。Wrapper是最底层的容器，其不能在加入子容器了。Wrapper是一个接口。其标准实现类是StandardWrapper，以下是这两个类的结构：





上面的图都仅仅是类的一部分。因为Wrapper与Servlet息息相关。当中的loadServlet方法负责装载Servlet，其源代码例如以下：

代码清单4-4：

/**
* Load and initialize an instance of this servlet, if there is not already
* at least one initialized instance.  This can be used, for example, to
* load servlets that are marked in the deployment descriptor to be loaded
* at server startup time.
*/
public synchronized Servlet loadServlet() throws ServletException {
if (unloading) {
throw new ServletException(
sm.getString("standardWrapper.unloading", getName()));
}
// Nothing to do if we already have an instance or an instance pool
if (!singleThreadModel && (instance != null))
return instance;
PrintStream out = System.out;
if (swallowOutput) {
SystemLogHandler.startCapture();
}
Servlet servlet;
try {
long t1=System.currentTimeMillis();
// Complain if no servlet class has been specified
if (servletClass == null) {
unavailable(null);
throw new ServletException
(sm.getString("standardWrapper.notClass", getName()));
}
InstanceManager instanceManager = ((StandardContext)getParent()).getInstanceManager();
try {
servlet = (Servlet) instanceManager.newInstance(servletClass);
} catch (ClassCastException e) {
unavailable(null);
// Restore the context ClassLoader
throw new ServletException
(sm.getString("standardWrapper.notServlet", servletClass), e);
} catch (Throwable e) {
e = ExceptionUtils.unwrapInvocationTargetException(e);
ExceptionUtils.handleThrowable(e);
unavailable(null);
// Added extra log statement for Bugzilla 36630:
// http://issues.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=36630 if(log.isDebugEnabled()) {
log.debug(sm.getString("standardWrapper.instantiate", servletClass), e);
}
// Restore the context ClassLoader
throw new ServletException
(sm.getString("standardWrapper.instantiate", servletClass), e);
}
if (multipartConfigElement == null) {
MultipartConfig annotation =
servlet.getClass().getAnnotation(MultipartConfig.class);
if (annotation != null) {
multipartConfigElement =
new MultipartConfigElement(annotation);
}
}
processServletSecurityAnnotation(servlet.getClass());
// Special handling for ContainerServlet instances
if ((servlet instanceof ContainerServlet) &&
(isContainerProvidedServlet(servletClass) ||
((Context) getParent()).getPrivileged() )) {
((ContainerServlet) servlet).setWrapper(this);
}
classLoadTime=(int) (System.currentTimeMillis() -t1);
if (servlet instanceof SingleThreadModel) {
if (instancePool == null) {
instancePool = new Stack<Servlet>();
}
singleThreadModel = true;
}
//init servlet instance
initServlet(servlet);
fireContainerEvent("load", this);
loadTime=System.currentTimeMillis() -t1;
} finally {
if (swallowOutput) {
String log = SystemLogHandler.stopCapture();
if (log != null && log.length() > 0) {
if (getServletContext() != null) {
getServletContext().log(log);
} else {
out.println(log);
}
}
}
}
return servlet;
}

该类主要负责初始化一个Servlet实例，并调用该实例的init方法，然后通知感兴趣的事件监听程序。代码清单4-3中调用了Wrapper的invoke方法，这种方法完毕什么呢？

代码清单4-5：

/**
* Invoke the servlet we are managing, respecting the rules regarding
* servlet lifecycle and SingleThreadModel support.
*
* @param request Request to be processed
* @param response Response to be produced
*
* @exception IOException if an input/output error occurred
* @exception ServletException if a servlet error occurred
*/
@Override

初始化一些本地变量

推断当前应用是否可用。就是推断是否确实有这个项目

分配一个Servlet实例

为请求创建一个过滤器链

过滤器过滤请求

关闭过滤器

又一次委派原来委派的Servlet实例

释放资源

这种方法与上面的loadServlet关系例如以下：



能够看出在调用loadServlet的allocate方法的时候调用了StandardWrapperValve的invoke方法，在Wrapper容器获得请求后，通过allocate方法从实例池栈中弹出一个servlet实例来处理这个请求，servlet实例被封装成filterChain对象，紧接着通过一系列的过滤器过滤到达servlet.service()方法。这个过程能够例如以下：
