Well after some hard thinking we have decided to change our approach to content transfer. Previously we were making us of URLs, however now we have decided to construct a Servlet which will make use of the DFS and retrieve the document content and then place this content into the HttpServletRespone object.
One thing of note was that I discovered that the Content object does not detail the mime_type for a document which is being retrieved. It does contain the format of the document but one needs to then perform a subsequent query using the QueryService to retrieve the appropriate mime_type. I may have overlooked something, but it would be a nice feature to include the mime_type in the content object so as to reduce client / server communication.
