Hello, is it possible to dynamically add a Filter for a web app using the tomcat ? If so, is there an example how to do this ?
OR is it possible to somehow init some webapps params before the Filter is loaded ? I tried to use a Servlet and used the <load-on-startup>1</load-on-startup> within the web.xml - however the servlet is loaded AFTER the filter is initialized (even when no web page has been requested). Is there a better approach then using a init servlet ? The problem i currently have, is that im using a 3rd party Security Filter which has "no knowledge" of my application and relies on some Configuration (access rights) which is initialized by my webapp. A good example for this problem would be if you have dynamic Log4j configuration i.e. not using a log4j.xml in the classpath but configuring it through the java api. The Filter is already initialized when you do the log4j initializion in the init servlet - thus making it impossible to see/track an debug/error messages from the filter at all. __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?
