Seems odd (to me anyway) that doFilter would not take HttpServletRequest as input...aren't most filters going to apply to Http?
--->public void doFilter(
ServletRequest req,
ServletResponse resp,
FilterChain chain)
throws ServletException, IOException {
So if, for example, to get pathInfo, I have
test for instanceof HttpServletRequest, then cast to it, just to get some basic info.
Or am I missing something?
thanks,
