# Class ServletResponseWrapper

java.lang.Object
javax.servlet.ServletResponseWrapper

All Implemented Interfaces:
  `ServletResponse`

Direct Known Subclasses:
  `HttpServletResponseWrapper`

public class ServletResponseWrapper extends Object implements ServletResponse
Provides a convenient implementation of the ServletResponse interface that can be subclassed by developers wishing to adapt the response from a Servlet. This class implements the Wrapper or Decorator pattern. Methods default to calling through to the wrapped response object.
