The E3ApplicationRequest Class
This class defines an object that conveys information about an HTTP request to an Arbortext PE Application. The Arbortext PE sub-process creates an E3ApplicationRequest object and passes it as a parameter to the doGet and doPost methods.
An E3ApplicationRequest object provides parameter names and values, HTTP headers, and in HTTP POST requests, a File object representing the posted file to the Arbortext PE Application.
The E3ApplicationRequest class has a set of methods for accessing the parameters in the request object.
