Hi,

is there any reason why http invoker does not compress the transferred data?

I have added two small methods.

public static byte[] toGZipByteArray(Object obj)
{
ByteArrayOutputStream bos = new ByteArrayOutputStream();

try
{
GZIPOutputStream gzos = new GZIPOutputStream(bos);
ObjectOutputStream os = new ObjectOutputStream(gzos);
os.writeObject(obj);
os.flush();
os.close();
}
catch( Exception e )
{
log.error("exception creating byte array", e);
}

return bos.toByteArray();
}

public static Object fromGZipByteArray(Object srcObj)
{
Object obj = null;

try
{
byte[] bytes = (byte[])srcObj;
ByteArrayInputStream bis = new ByteArrayInputStream(bytes);

GZIPInputStream gzis = new GZIPInputStream(bis);
ObjectInputStream is = new ObjectInputStream(gzis);
obj = is.readObject();
}
catch( Exception e )
{
log.error("exception reading byte array", e);
}

return obj;
}

Then you have to change Util.java, HttpInvokerProxy.java, HttpNamingContextFactory.java, NamingFactoryServlet.java and InvokerServlet.java to use these methods to compress and decompress the data.
