how to gzip response in embedded tomcat

how can I do this? I read about compression, but not find anything about doing in embedded tomcat server. I read about Connecter class set the compression on in this website

http://viralpatel.net/blogs/enable-gzip-compression-in-tomcat/

but not in server. I have main method which starts tomcat server.

Anything you can do via XML can (most likely) be done with API calls through Java as well. In this case, if you can get a handle to the Connector object, you could probably set whatever values etc and enable compression.

Have you tried that? It would be something to the effect of 

Tomcat server = new Tomcat()
Connector connector = server.getConnector()

Now set whatever values you want in your compression and after you are done, make sure to set the connector object back into the server

server.setConnector(connector)

I think that should be equivalent to the declarative way that's listed in the link you posted.
