Hi,
I have defined FilterChainProxy in my web.xml like so:
<filter>
<filter-name>filterChainProxy</filter-name>
<filter-class>org.springframework.web.filter.DelegatingFilterProxy</filter-class>
</filter>
<filter-mapping>
<filter-name>filterChainProxy</filter-name>
<url-pattern>/*</url-pattern>
</filter-mapping>
Now if I define the bean "filterChainProxy" in META-INF/spring/app-context.xml, it works fine. How ever, Virgo user guide mentions the following note:
----------
"Spring (and Spring DM) application context XML files should generally be placed in a bundle's META-INF/spring directory, but for a web application, these files must be placed in the WEB-INF directory.
Placing a web application's Spring application context XML files in the META-INF/spring directory produces unpredictable results since Spring DM will attempt to build an application context independently of, and asynchronously from, the web application."
----------
So I am trying to find a way to move the filterChainProxy definition to some place under WEB-INF. I first tried to put it in "api-servlet.xml" ("api" being name of the servlet) but that didn't work.
Can some one please explain the recommended way of defining filterChainProxy and any other beans in a web application? We also have META-INF/spring/osgi-context.xml to define OSGi services. Where would that file go if we can't put it in META-INF/spring based on above warning from Virgo docs?
Thanks,
Raghu
