Filters

[Kevin Jones <kj...@develop.com>]

Hi,

I'm using Cactus to test a filter. 
The filter is mapped to /*
I'm calling the filter inside a FilterTestCase like this

MyFilter filter = new MyFilter();
filter.init(filterConfig);
filter.doFilter(...);


I'm seeing the doFilter called twice, I assume this is because the
filter is mapped to /* and the cactus request is firing the filter. This
must be a common problem and I was wondering what if anything is the
work around?

Thanks

Kevin Jones

Because I'm using the same (more or less) web.xml for testing and
release - I'll fix the web.xml using Ant's filter's and try it again,

Hmm... Why do you have a filter mapping for the test? Is it because you
also want to test the mapping? My recommendation would be to remove your
filter mapping and only keep the Cactus FilterRedirector one.
