public abstract class HttpContentDecoder extends SimpleChannelUpstreamHandler
HttpRequest
and HttpChunk
.
The original content is replaced with the new content decoded by the
DecoderEmbedder
, which is created by newContentDecoder(String)
.
Once decoding is finished, the value of the 'Content-Encoding'
header is set to the target content encoding, as returned by getTargetContentEncoding(String)
.
Also, the 'Content-Length' header is updated to the length of the
decoded content. If the content encoding of the original is not supported
by the decoder, newContentDecoder(String)
should return null
so that no decoding occurs (i.e. pass-through).
Please note that this is an abstract class. You have to extend this class
and implement newContentDecoder(String)
properly to make this class
functional. For example, refer to the source code of HttpContentDecompressor
.
This handler must be placed after HttpMessageDecoder
in the pipeline
so that this handler can intercept HTTP requests after HttpMessageDecoder
converts ChannelBuffer
s into HTTP requests.
