[jira] [Created] (WW-3933) Provide web-fragment.xml for easier
deployment on Servlet 3.0 compliant containers
Daniel Le Berre created WW-3933:
-----------------------------------
Summary: Provide web-fragment.xml for easier deployment on Servlet 3.0 compliant containers
Key: WW-3933
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/WW-3933
Project: Struts 2
Issue Type: Improvement
Components: Dispatch Filter
Affects Versions: 2.3.7
Reporter: Daniel Le Berre
Priority: Minor
Servlet 3.0 specification includes the possibility for libraries to ship web-fragment.xml files in their META-INF directory to contribute some declarations to the main web.xml file.
Struts 2 only requires the declaration of a filter in the web.xml file to work. When building Servlet 3.0 webapp, the web.xml file is often not used at all.
It would be nice to ship a web-fragment.xml file in struts 2 that declares the PrepareAndExecute filter to simplify the use of the framework on a servlet 3.0 stack.

-----------------------------------
What about users that would like to use two separated filters: Prepare and Execute (when using Sitemesh) ?

Daniel Le Berre commented on WW-3933:
-------------------------------------
The only reliable resource on the topic is I guess the Servlet 3.0 specification, chapter 8.2.1 "Modularity of web.xml" page 65.
The idea would be to have a default filter name for struts 2 default filter in the fragment (e.g. org.apache.struts2.filter) with a default class and filter mapping.
The definition of another filter with the same name in the web.xml should take precedence on the fragment:
"4. The web.xml of the web application has the highest precedence when resolving
conflicts between the web.xml, web-fragment.xml and annotations." page 73 of the Servlet 3.0 specification.

Daniel Le Berre commented on WW-3933:
-------------------------------------
AFAIK the web-fragment.xml content can be overridden by the final user.
So the idea would be to provide a default filter and to explain how to change that default behavior if needed.
If more people are using separate filters than a unique filter, then that behavior could be the default.
