Retrieve POST parameters only (Java)

Question

Does anyone know of a way to get only POST parameters from an HttpServletRequest object?

IE, PHP has the $_POST superglobal and Perl\'s CGI.pm will only retrieve POS

Answer 1

I'm not sure if this would work, but you could try extracting the raw content of the POST body using request.getReader(). The container may remove that data before handing control to your application, though, and even if it didn't, you'd have to decode the parameter string yourself.
