Access HTTP Headers in Extended Operators and Service Callouts

Access to Vocabulary Metadata through the ICcDataObjectManager

When deployed as a web service, the Corticon server can retrieve all HTTP header name/value pairs from the HTTP session. These will be placed in a class implementing the ICcServerHttpInfo interface. This class is available from the ICcDataObjectManager class passed to all extensions.

An example of a service callout accessing the HTTP headers is as follows:

public static void getHttpHeaders(ICcDataObjectManager dataObjMgr) {
    ICcServerHttpInfo ccServerHttpInfo = dataObjMgr.getCcServerHttpInfo();
    Map <String, String> httpHeaders = ccServerHttpInfo.getHttpHeaders();
    for (Map.Entry <String, String> entry : httpHeaders.entrySet()) {
        String key = entry.getKey();
        String value = entry.getValue();
        ...
    }
}

Corticon can call REST services; for example, calling a SaaS service.

See the Corticon extension JavaDoc for more details.
