[Pax Web] Applying a servlet filter to a servlet exported from another bundle.

[Alexander Krauss]

Dear list,

I am using Pax Web to publish a servlets, with some filters. However,
it seems that a filter is only applied to
servlets from the same bundle. While I can understand the rationale
behind this, I wonder if there is a way around it.

Here is theSpring configuration that I currently use to publish the
servlet and filter:

In Bundle A:

  <osgi:service ref="myServlet">
        <osgi:interfaces>
            <value>javax.servlet.Servlet</value>
        </osgi:interfaces>
        <osgi:service-properties>
            <entry key="alias" value="/foo"/>
            <entry key="matchOnUriPrefix" value="true"/>
            <entry key="servlet-name" value="MyServlet"/>
        </osgi:service-properties>
    </osgi:service>


In Bundle B:

    <osgi:service ref="myFilter">
        <osgi:interfaces>
            <value>javax.servlet.Filter</value>
        </osgi:interfaces>
        <osgi:service-properties>
            <entry key="urlPatterns" value="/*"/>
            <entry key="matchOnUriPrefix" value="true"/>
            <entry key="servletNames" value="MyServlet"/>
        </osgi:service-properties>
    </osgi:service>

    <osgi:service ref="myOtherServlet">
        <osgi:interfaces>
            <value>javax.servlet.Servlet</value>
        </osgi:interfaces>
        <osgi:service-properties>
            <entry key="alias" value="/bar"/>
            <entry key="matchOnUriPrefix" value="true"/>
            <entry key="servlet-name" value="MyOtherServlet"/>
        </osgi:service-properties>
    </osgi:service>


What I observe is that the filter is in effect for myOtherServlet, but
not myServlet.
Is there a way of getting it applied to myServlet as well?

I am using Karaf 2.2.4, which comes with Pax Web 1.0.7.

Thanks,
Alex
