  Add a warning, to be emitted at reply time. The cache filter keeps track, through a specific piece of request state of the warnings to be emitted at reply time (if any).

  During request processing, cached resources can add any kind of warnings, which will be collected and forwarded back to the reply.

  Parameters:
    request - The request being process, and whose reply requires some warnings.
    warning - The warning to be emitted if ever we use the cache filter to answer the above request.

                                      Reply reply)

  Copy all warnings colllected into the given reply. This method collects all HTTP warnings saved during request processing and create (if needed) the approporiate warning header in the given reply.

  Parameters:
    request - The request that has been processed by the cache filter.
    reply - The reply that has been constructed from the cache.
  See Also:

canUseCache

     public boolean canUseCache(Request request)

  Can the given request be fullfilled by the cache filter ? This method distinguishes two situations. It first check if anything in the request makes it uncachable, if this is the case, processing continues normally. If the request can be answered by the cache, we mark it as such by setting the `org.w3c.www.protocol.http.cache` state of the request to Boolean.TRUE, ans we return true.

  Returns:
    A boolean, true if the request can be fullfilled by the cache, false otherwise.

canCache

     public boolean canCache(Request request,
                             Reply reply)

  Can the given reply to the given request be added to the cache. This method performs all checks to detect wether the given request, reply can be cached.

  We don't check for expires or maxage here, since we expect some sites to use negative expires, or zero max age, just for the sake of revalidation (that's fine).

  Returns:
    A boolean true if we can cache, false otherwise.

exceptionFilter

     public boolean exceptionFilter(Request request,
                                    HttpException ex)

     public Reply outgoingFilter(Request request,
                                 Reply reply) throws HttpException

pushDocument

     public void pushDocument(Request request,
                              Reply reply)

  Push a document in the cache. The caller has to forge a a request and a reply before being able to make something enter the cache. The request should provide at least:
  URL
  The URL (key for cache lookups)
  Method

  It is recommended that the reply provides at least the following informations:

  Status Code
  A valid HTTP/1.1 status code (probably 200)
  InputStream
  Containing the entity to be cached,
  EntityTag
  A valid entity tag for the document,
  CacheControl
  Appropriate HTTP/1.1 cache controls for that document,
  Mime headers
  At least a valid content type, and probably a content length (to check consistency with the reply body).

  sync

       public void sync()

    Save all cache related infos to stable storage.
