A filter comes into effect before the control goes to the servlet. So if you can stop the user at the filter level you are actually saving some processing. We are checking for the presence of session in the filter.

I am writing a web app to manage administrators and profiles. Administrators may access to the web app based on the profiles they have. The profiles, determine which pages the administrator might access. The profiles, and authorizations, might change online during work, so I need to check authorization to access a page (Action) on each access.If I understand correct, then, the actionServlet, first process the form bean, and then the action.. But, if the user is not authorized to access a specific page (Action), I need to forward him to an UnAuthorized error page, before thr formAction bean is filled. I would like to use a servlet filter. This filter checks the users rights and instanciates a HttpServletRequest-Wrapper.But am not sure how - .Can anyone help.Till then me trying to study the ServletFilter examples here n there.
