Howdy,Apologies if this is dumb q: Googling the jakarta site and reading the tomcat o'reilly have left me confused on this.
A javax.servlet.Filter is one nice clean way.
Isn't the filter part of web app? From jakarta:
Filters are configured in the deployment descriptor of a web application
And in o'reilly the filter and filter-mappnig tags are discussed in the web.xml section. Doesn't this raise a namespace issue? If your servlet-mapping is to /foo, then a filter on /* seems like it will either never fire, or else be ambiguous with other /* filters in other web apps (such as the /bar webapp, with it's own /* filter).
The original poster had a /hal context and a / context. Does the filter solution require the / context to remain? Or is that unneeded?
thanks for any unconfusion, -joe
