     * to the dispatch target, and the response will be closed when the
     * dispatch target has completed execution, unless
     * {@link ServletRequest#startAsync()} or
     * {@link ServletRequest#startAsync(ServletRequest, ServletResponse)}
     * are called.
     * 
     * <p>Any errors or exceptions that may occur during the execution
     * of this method must be caught and handled by the container, as
     * follows:
     * <ol>
     * <li>Invoke, at their {@link AsyncListener#onError onError} method, all
     * {@link AsyncListener} instances registered with the ServletRequest
     * for which this AsyncContext was created, and make the caught 
     * <tt>Throwable</tt> available via {@link AsyncEvent#getThrowable}.</li>
     * <li>If none of the listeners called {@link #complete} or any of the
     * {@link #dispatch} methods, perform an error dispatch with a status code
     * equal to <tt>HttpServletResponse.SC_INTERNAL_SERVER_ERROR</tt>, and
     * make the above <tt>Throwable</tt> available as the value of the
     * <tt>RequestDispatcher.ERROR_EXCEPTION</tt> request attribute.</li>
