Hello,
I have a struts portlet which uses a filter. The SvcIFilter call has to be
the first on the way in and the last on the way out. It is used to
open/close Connections to a database.
The stand-alone struts application works fine, with the following
configuration:
<filter-mapping>
<filter-name>SvcI Filter</filter-name>
<url-pattern>/*</url-pattern>
</filter-mapping>
For the Portlet, I started getting into troubles because the close method
of the filter was called to early. That is, we have a strict open-close
sequence which works fine in the stand alone application. I first tried to
configure the web.xml file like this:
<web-app xmlns="http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/j2ee";
xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance";
xsi:schemaLocation="http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/j2ee
http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/j2ee/web-app_2_4.xsd";
version="2.4">
.
.
.
<filter-mapping>
<filter-name>SvcI Filter</filter-name>
<url-pattern>/*</url-pattern>
<dispatcher>REQUEST</dispatcher>
<dispatcher>FORWARD</dispatcher>
<dispatcher>INCLUDE</dispatcher>
</filter-mapping>
Then I tried this: (change in the url-patttern)
<filter-mapping>
<filter-name>SvcI Filter</filter-name>
<url-pattern>*.do</url-pattern>
<dispatcher>REQUEST</dispatcher>
<dispatcher>FORWARD</dispatcher>
<dispatcher>INCLUDE</dispatcher>
</filter-mapping>
The latter configuration gave better results (I could get up to the
initial display of the portlet), but any click on a link (invoking a
struts action) gave Exceptions because the close method of the filter was
executed to early.
How should I configure the url-pattern so the filter gets called the first
on the way in and the last on the way out ??? I repeat, the stand-alone
struts application works fine...
Note that I am using struts-bridge 0.1
Thanks in advance for any help.
Regards
Xavier
