## com.sun.jersey.api.container.filter
Class PostReplaceFilter

    java.lang.Object
      com.sun.jersey.api.container.filter.PostReplaceFilter

All Implemented Interfaces:
  ContainerRequestFilter

    public class PostReplaceFilter

extends java.lang.Object
implements ContainerRequestFilter

A filter to support HTTP method replacing of a POST request to a request utilizing another HTTP method for the case where proxies or HTTP servers would otherwise block that HTTP method.

This filter may be used to replace a POST request with a PUT or DELETE request.

Replacement will occur if the request method is POST and there exists an a request header "X-HTTP-Method-Override" with a non-empty value. That value will be the HTTP method that replaces the POST method.

When an application is deployed as a Servlet or Filter this Jersey filter can be registered using the following initialization parameter:

>          <init-param>
>              <param-name>com.sun.jersey.spi.container.ContainerRequestFilters</param-name>
>              <param-value>com.sun.jersey.api.container.filter.PostReplaceFilter</param-value>
>          </init-param>

TODO support query parameter for declaring the replacing method.
