How can I set HTTP headers in Glassfish server

I want to set the "Expires" HTTP response header when my Glassfish server serves static resources like Javascript and image files. (because to force the browser to cache them)

How can I do this in Glassfish V 3.0.1 server?

Are you referencing resources from secure page?? Then The answer of Jigar Joshi i.e.

http://blogs.oracle.com/cwebster/entry/caching_static_resources_in_glassfish

will not work...

If you are having secure page then following will help you out.

One way is using HttpServletResponseWrapper

Another approch is using filter , here is very good article :Caching static resources in glassfish

Glassfish uses catalina for servlet container. Extend the DefaultServlet, override something like doGet() and add the headers you need.

http://tomcat.apache.org/tomcat-7.0-doc/api/org/apache/catalina/servlets/DefaultServlet.html

Mount your own default servlet to /:

   <servlet-mapping>
       <servlet-name>mydefault</servlet-name>
       <url-pattern>/</url-pattern>
   </servlet-mapping>
