  - ### Method Detail

    - #### getRequestHeader

          List<String> getRequestHeader(String name)

      Get the values of a HTTP request header. The returned List is read-only. This is a shortcut for `getRequestHeaders().get(name)`.
      Parameters:
        `name` - the header name, case insensitive.
      Returns:
        a read-only list of header values.
      Throws:
        `IllegalStateException` - if called outside the scope of a request.

    - #### getHeaderString

          String getHeaderString(String name)

      Get a HTTP header as a single string value.

      Each single header value is converted to String using a `RuntimeDelegate.HeaderDelegate` if one is available via `RuntimeDelegate.createHeaderDelegate(java.lang.Class)` for the header value class or using its `toString` method if a header delegate is not available.
      Parameters:
        `name` - the HTTP header.
      Returns:
        the HTTP header value. If the HTTP header is not present then `null` is returned. If the HTTP header is present but has no value then the empty string is returned. If the HTTP header is present more than once then the values of joined together and separated by a ',' character.
      Since:
        2.0
      See Also:
        `getRequestHeader(java.lang.String)`

    - #### getRequestHeaders

          MultivaluedMap<String,String> getRequestHeaders()

      Get the values of HTTP request headers. The returned Map is case-insensitive wrt. keys and is read-only. The method never returns `null`.
      Returns:
        a read-only map of header names and values.
      Throws:
        `IllegalStateException` - if called outside the scope of a request.

    - #### getAcceptableMediaTypes

          List<MediaType> getAcceptableMediaTypes()

      Get a list of media types that are acceptable for the response.

      If no acceptable media types are specified, a read-only list containing a single `wildcard media type` instance is returned.
      Returns:
        a read-only list of requested response media types sorted according to their q-value, with highest preference first.
      Throws:
        `IllegalStateException` - if called outside the scope of a request.

    - #### getAcceptableLanguages

          List<Locale> getAcceptableLanguages()

      Get a list of languages that are acceptable for the response.
