Safer POST submissions with the P-R-G pattern
Shows how to implement the Post-Redirect-Get pattern to safely handle POST submissions.
This is a sample application developed during the lectures of the Web Engineering course. The code is organized to best match the lecture topics and examples. It is not intended for production use and is not optimized in any way.
This example code will be shown and described approximately during the 10th lecture of the course, so wait to download it, since it may get updated in the meanwhile.
This is a Maven-based project. Simply download the code and open it in any Maven-enabled IDE such as Netbeans or Eclipse.
Please do not download the code from the main branch, but from the branch corresponding to the platform used in the lectures:*
- the JEE branch contains the application version to be run on the JavaEE 8 platform inside Apache Tomcat version 9.
- the JKEE branch contains the application version to be run on the JakartaEE 10 platform inside Apache Tomcat version 10.
Note that you may need to configure the deploy settings based on the chosen platform/server: refer to your IDE help files to perform this step. For example, in Apache Netbeans, you must enter these settings in Project properties > Run.
