Why do you want ServletFilter capability in the struts ActionServlet (other than not using a servlet 2.3 compliant container)? I personally think this is best left in the ServletFilter realm and people using older containers (myself included) can subclass RequestProcessor.
In general, I don't think it's wise to duplicate java standard functionality in struts, especially when struts already provides an easy extension mechanism. Dave >From: "Michael C.
