RWT service StartupParameters does not return form-data in request body [message #1814326]

When calling RWT.getClient().getService(StartupParameters.class) from within a class which extends AbstractEntryPoint, parameters in the request query string are accessible. But when the request is POSTed, any parameters in the request body form-data are NOT accessible. In the below example, samlResponse is null

StartupParameters startupParams = RWT.getClient().getService(StartupParameters.class);
String samlResponse = startupParams.getParameter("SAMLResponse");

Hi,

you are starting your application with POST request? StartupParameters service is for URL parameters in the query string. As RAP first startup request is completely static (no UI session is created) transferring directly the request body form-data parameters to the app is currently not possible.
One possible solution is to use a separate startup servlet (not the one of your entrypoint). In this servlet you could store body form-data parameters in a global singleton by unique session key and redirect to the RAP entry point servlet by providing this key.

Regards,
Ivan

yes I am starting the app w/ POST request. Will transferring request body form-data be supported by RAP in the future? Does RAP support writing custom services similar to the StartupParameters service?
