[Fwd: issue with default contentType in ServletUnitHttpResponse]

Hi -

I'm using HttpUnit to test my Spring+Freemarker based webapp. It's going
really well, with one or two glitches... One of the glitches I've now
tracked down...

In order to have a default ContentType in my app, spring's mvc framework
is expecting the contentType of the response to be initially null (which
is how it is created in tomcat's implementation of HttpServletResponse
for example).

However com.meterware.servletunit.ServletUnitHttpResponse (as
instantiated by the InvocationContext) has contentType hardcoded to
"text/plain", BEFORE it packs off the contentType off to the servlet to
handle.
{{{

543     private String _contentType = "text/plain";

}}}

Is there a good reason for this, or should it actually be left to be
initially null (or should there be a ServletUnitOptions class with
.setDefaultContentType (like HttpUnitOptions)

thanks

Tim
