They do go through the filter chain if you configure them properly. Section 6.2.5 of the servlet specification states: " SRV.6.2.5 Filters and the RequestDispatcher New since version 2.4 of the Java Servlet specification is the ability to configure filters to be invoked under request dispatcher forward() and include() calls. By using the new <dispatcher> element in the deployment descriptor, the developer can indicate for a filter-mapping whether he would like the filter to be applied to requests when: 1. The request comes directly from the client. This is indicated by a <dispatcher> element with value REQUEST, or by the absence of any <dispatcher> elements. 2. The request is being processed under a request dispatcher representing the Web component matching the <url-pattern> or <servlet-name> using a forward() call. This is indicated by a <dispatcher> element with value FORWARD. 3. The request is being processed under a request dispatcher representing the Web component matching the <url-pattern> or <servlet-name> using an include() call. This is indicated by a <dispatcher> element with value INCLUDE. 4. The request is being processed with the error page mechanism specified in “Error Handling” on page 69 to an error resource matching the <url-pattern>. This is indicated by a <dispatcher> element with the value ERROR. 5. Or any combination of 1, 2, 3, or 4 above. " Note that <dispatcher> elements are children of the <filter-mapping> element, and you can specify multiple dispatchers like this: <filter-mapping> ~ <filter-name>myFilter</filter-name> ~ <url-pattern>/*</url-pattern> ~ <dispatcher>REQUEST</dispatcher> ~ <dispatcher>INCLUDE</dispatcher> ~ <dispatcher>FORWARD</dispatcher> </filter-mapping> Hope that helps, - -chris -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.9 (MingW32) Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - http://enigmail.mozdev.org iEYEARECAAYFAkhSlC4ACgkQ9CaO5/Lv0PBMGwCdFUIF4WUDMCcFmmLR3+cD9Dtw UX4AnA+t2sSNxXZKRl/ALtK+eM1Q0Fd3 =YbQX -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --------------------------------------------------------------------- To start a new topic, e-mail: users@tomcat.apache.org To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
