You don't generally want to use servlets as filters; the Filter interface is
different from the Servlet interface (and quite a bit simpler).

If for some reason you need to use a servlet's code as a filter, you could
write an adapter class that implements Filter and somehow calls a Servlet.
I'd avoid this, though.
