Java EE (Java Enterprise Edition) General Discussion

Hello, I was just playing around with the request headers in my servlet. Finally at a point where i cannot explain this behavior.

In my servlet Test1.java i have :

protected void doGet(HttpServletRequest req, HttpServletResponse response) throws ServletException, IOException {
		  response.setContentType("text/html");  
		   response.setHeader("Testing", "5");
                   RequestDispatcher reqD = req.getRequestDispatcher("/Test2");  
		   reqD.forward(req,response);
		         
	}

And my Test2.java looks like :

protected void doGet(HttpServletRequest request, HttpServletResponse response) throws ServletException, IOException {
		System.out.println("hello");
		System.out.println("The headers are.." + request.getIntHeader("Testing"));
	}

When i run this code from servlet Test1, which forwards to Test2, i see the final output as :

hello
The headers are..-1

Am not able to udnerstand why am i not able to retrieve the Testing header set in Test1 ??

Any advise.

Thanks,
