Intended for use by a Valve to indicate that the Valve provides access logging. It is used by the Tomcat internals to identify a Valve that logs access requests so requests that are rejected earlier in the processing chain can still be added to the access log. Implementations of this interface should be robust against the provided Request and Response objects being null, having null attributes or any other 'oddness' that may result from attempting to log a request that was almost certainly rejected because it was mal-formed.

Add the request/response to the access log using the specified processing time.

  • request – Request (associated with the response) to log
  • response – Response (associated with the request) to log
  • time – Time taken to process the request/response in milliseconds (use 0 if not known)

Should this valve set request attributes for IP address, hostname, protocol and port used for the request? This are typically used in conjunction with the AccessLogValve which will otherwise log the original values. The attributes set are:
  • org.apache.catalina.RemoteAddr
  • org.apache.catalina.RemoteHost
  • org.apache.catalina.Protocol
  • org.apache.catalina.ServerPost
Params:
  • requestAttributesEnabled – true causes the attributes to be set, false disables the setting of the attributes.
