Actually this is very easy; when you want to pass the request down the
chain (i.e. into the servlet) you call the chain.doFilter() method. When
you *don't* want the request passed on, your filter just sets up the
response (status, header, etc.) and returns.


Thanks, that is what I wasn't sure of. I was wondering if one had to start "dispatching" the request somewhere else etc..

But now, a trickier question :

I already have a servlet filter, in front of a servlet which I need
anyway.
Can I, in the filter, and based on some characteristic of the request,
return a response to the caller immediately, bypassing the servlet
entirely ?
