Class ForwardDispatchFilter

java.lang.Object
  org.apache.geronimo.console.servlet.ForwardDispatchFilter

All Implemented Interfaces:

Filter

public class ForwardDispatchFilter
extends Object
implements Filter

Filter that wrappers HTTP requests forwarded from a separate context via a named request dispatcher. The wrapped HTTP requests return attributes from the original request instead of the forwarded instance of the request. Deployment descriptors that use this filter should specify "FORWARD" as the dispatcher type in their filter-mapping elements, as per the 2.4 Servlet Specification. e.g.

     
        myfilter
        myservlet
        FORWARD
