Servlet filter execution ordering

[Christopher Schultz <ch...@christopherschultz.net>]

All,

When building a filter chain to execute for a request, the spec says 
that the ordering is "as declared in the deployment descriptor". These 
is an example in the spec language but I wanted to be absolutely sure I 
understand this.

The ordering of the <filter> elements in web.xml is not relevant. Only 
the order of the <filter-mapping> elements (which match the request's 
<url-pattern>) is relevant.

Do I have that correct?
