4.2.1.3.4.2: Servlet filtering with servlet chains

To configure a servlet chain, use the administrative console to:

  • Define the following initialization parameter and value for the ChainerServlet:
    Parameter Value
    chainer.pathlist /first_servlet_URL /next_servlet_URL

    The chainer.pathlist is a space-delimited list of servlet URLs. For example, if you want the sequence of servlets to be three servlets that you added to the examples application (servletA, servletB, servletC), specify:

    Parameter Value
    chainer.pathlist /servletA /servletB /servletC
  • To invoke a servlet chain, invoke the servlet URL of the ChainerServlet in your application. instance, for example, http://your.server.name/webapp/example/abc.
