Package sunlabs.brazil.proxy Description

Handlers, filters, and utilities for using the Brazil project framework as an HTTP proxy.

Unlike traditional web proxies, a Brazil project server can operate both as a destination server and as a web proxy. As a proxy, the server has access to all of the session and content rewriting capabilities normally associated with a destination server.

The ProxyHandler uses the HTTP proxy code in the sunlabs.brazil.util.http package to provide a handler interface to the proxy.

The other classes in this package provide examples of customizing the proxy, both in terms of content filtering, and name resolution.
