Thanks Frank!
It's a great idea. I'll give it a try.
But to generalize a bit on my question.
Let's say you have a legacy servlet, which is mapped to a certain url pattern. Now, you'd to use only a single controller ( the struts' controller), and do some processing on all of the requests, before control gets to the servlet.
Is it possible, without modifying the URL, and the servlet?

Thanks much, Lig

Hi Lig,

I think you would want to do two things... first, abstract out your authorization code from the RP into a filter... you should be able to slap this in front of vanilla Struts and get the same effect (perhaps with a little tweaking, since I'm not familiar with your implementation).

Next, map this filter to ActionServlet, as well as DWRServlet... DWR and Struts are really two different things (existing integration aside), and I don't think it would make much sense to run requests through Struts and then DWR... I can see why you'd think that with the auth code in the RP, but once its externalized, I think everything becomes quite a bit cleaner.

Hi,
I've asked this on the DWR mailing list, but never got a response.
May you be you can help.
The issue is the following:

I have an extension to requestProcessor which deals with authorizing requests based on request parameteres. I'd like to do the same to the requests directed to the DWR servlet. My thinking was first, map url /dwr* to the ActionServlet, do the required checks in the processMapping() of the extension of RequestProcessor, and then forward the request to the
DWR servlet.

Is this a right approach?
If so, could somebody advice how to do it?
Thanks, Lig
