title: Changing HTTP method in RequestDispatcher
body: <p>How do I change HTTP method in <code>javax,servlet.RequestDispatcher</code>?</p>
  
  <p>I have some old service APIs that support GET and POST, The new version supports DELETE method for removing a record which used to happen through POST earlier.</p>
  
  <p>We are decommissioning old version APIs by setting RequestDispatcher.forward() for old end points (stop gap arrangement until clients change). everything was cool except this POST to DELETE mapping. </p>
  
  <p>Any solution there for this problem without adding POST end point for delete operation in new API?></p>
