Hi Ben, The code snippet I sent a few weeks back did work on both Tomcat and Websphere 5 for me.
http://www.mail-archive.com/[EMAIL PROTECTED]/ms g00118.html Essentially using something like this in AbtractProcessingFilter's doFilter() if ( httpRequest.getRequestURL().toString().endsWith( httpRequest.getContextPath() + filterProcessesUrl) ) instead of : if (filterProcessesUrl.equals(httpRequest.getServletPath())) { I personally make use heavy use of Websphere (as well as the occasional Tomcat) and I think the proper thing to do would be to provide a solution that works and satisfies all of the integration tests and I think the above code will suffice. Again, filters are a different beast... and hence the grey area. I just dont want to get into the servlet container spec wars (Jetty vs. Websphere) and have a mutually exclusive solution. My 2 cents Colin any thoughts?
