Interesting issue. Anyway, can't think of anything that solves it in a clean way.
If you give me (if you can) further information about what your filter does, I could give it a try at thinking about an alternative solution.

Hi, you indeed didn't the question :-) (but still, thanks for answering!) The problem is as follows: I'm making a plugin which puts a wrapper around the request of a servlet. A servlet gets invoked by: doGet(HttpServletRequest request, HttpServletResponse response) What I want to do now is to put a filter in front of it. When a request comes in, the filter does: newrequest= new RequestWrapper(request); chain.doFilter(newrequest, response); That way the servlet is invoked with a wrapper around the request. Until now, this approach works. Now comes the problem: the filter also does some other things than creating the wrapper. That way it always has to be called, before a servlet is called. The filter I have now, always get called when there is an incoming request. But when a servlet uses a requestdispatcher to include another servlet, the filter doesn't get called. In a little schema: Without filter the call looks like: Request --> Servlet1 --> Servlet2 (so servlet1 uses a requestdispatcher to include servlet2) If you add a filter to this you get: Request --> Filter -> Servlet1 -> Servlet2 But what I need to get is: Request --> Filter -> Servlet1 -> Filter -> Servlet2 _________________________________________________________________ Heb je MSN WebMessenger al ontdekt? http://webmessenger.msn.com/?mkt=nl-be --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
