Request Processing FAQ Page added by Howard M. Lewis Ship   Frequently Asked Questions   Request Processing How do I get Tapestry to not handle a request? Often, when integrating with certain libraries, or working with legacy code, you will want Tapestry to ignore a request and let the normal servlet or other processing handle the request. The easy way to do this is to contribute a regular _expression_ to the IgnoredPathsFilter service, whose job is to exclude some requests. public static void contributeIgnoredPathsFilter(Configuration<String> configuration) { configuration.add("/dwr/.*"); } Alternately, you may contribute a HttpServletRequestFilter to the HttpServletRequestHandler pipeline. A filter that simply returns false from its service() method will cause Tapestry to hand off the request to the servlet container for normal handling. You would use this approach when a simple regular _expression_ is not sufficient to identify which requests should be ignored.   Frequently Asked Questions   Change Notification Preferences View Online
