Thanks, I got the filter running. However, in order for it to be useful, I need to invoke it in a regular servlet container fashion - that is, BEFORE any servlets get to handle the request. The Sling (and I assume OSGi?) way is to let a servlet take care of invoking filters. In Sling's case, that seems to be SlingMainServlet. Now, this is not what I want, because SlingMainServlet#service(HttpServletRequest, HttpServletResponse) resolves the resource before invoking filters. My filter is designed to manipulate the request so that Sling will resolve to a different resource (based on the HTTP host header, as outlined in https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SLING-249). So I would like to let the filter process the request before SlingMainServlet gets to it. How can I accomplish that (if possible)? -- Vidar S.
