## org.w3c.jigsaw.ssi.commands
Class EchoCommand

    java.lang.Object
      |
      +--org.w3c.jigsaw.ssi.commands.EchoCommand

public class EchoCommand
extends java.lang.Object
implements Command

Implementation of the `echo` SSI command. As extensions, it has the parameters "reqstate" (for echoing Jigsaw request states) and "reqheader" (for echoing request header).

Also, it can take the flag "here", whose presence means that the variable is to be interpreted at the deepest request level (in the case of chained internal requests), instead of doing so at the top (external request) level. It inserts the value of a variable in the document.

Method Detail

### acceptCaching

    public boolean acceptCaching()

    a boolean.

### execute

    public Reply execute(SSIFrame ssiframe,

                         java.util.Dictionary variables)

  Description copied from interface: Command
  Executes this command. Might modify variables. Must not modify the parameters.

  It may handle conditional requests, except that if it replies with a status of HTTP.NOT_MODIFIED, it must still reply with a content (the same content that it would have returned for an inconditional request). This is because further SSI commands down the line may decide thay they have been modified, and then a content must be emitted by SSIFrame.

  Specified by:
    execute in interface Command

  Parameters:
    `request` - the original HTTP request
