MyFaces and Filters not working ?

[he...@dnbnor.no]

Hi

I am starting get to the stage of my migration from Struts to MyFaces
where I was going to add the security stuff. In my struts application I
am using SecurityFilter from S.F, and It works flawlessly. I configured
the MyFaces Blank application first to use the standard "BASIC"
authentication using a JDBCRealm in Tomcat5. That worked ok, popping up
a logon dialog to authenticate. Then I configured it to use
SecurityFilter, and I am seeing somthing strange. The init method of the
filter is being called Ok and it does its stuff. But the onFilter method
is NEVER called. I sa somebody else seing the same behaviour in the
ExtensionFilter, althogh in a different scenario. Is this a known issue
?

I don't know if this is what you're seeing, but, if you are using Tomcat 
security, the filters don't get executed until after you have logged in. I'm 
using several filters with MyFaces without problem. The only other thing 
that I can think of is that you don't have the filter URL pattern set 
correctly.

Hermod,

I use MyFaces 1.0.8 with JSF 1.0.1_1, and Tomcat 5.0.28, i have develop 
an filter for the authentification too, and it's working very well

 - build class wich implement javax.servlet.Filter,
 - put all your code in the doFilter function,

 - add in your web.xml
 <filter>
  <filter-name>NameFilter</filter-name>
  <filter-class>package.class</filter-class>
 </filter>

 <filter-mapping>
  <filter-name>NameFilter</filter-name>
  <url-pattern>/page/private/*</url-pattern>
 </filter-mapping>
