There is a method in that getHeader()

Note:Available only for servelt 3.0 ,If not you can't use this.

This method considers only response headers set or added via setHeader(java.lang.String, java.lang.String), addHeader(java.lang.String, java.lang.String), setDateHeader(java.lang.String, long), addDateHeader(java.lang.String, long), setIntHeader(java.lang.String, int), or addIntHeader(java.lang.String, int), respectively.
