I am using form based authentication in my application. I would like to know
if it is possible to install a Servlet filter on j_security_check.
I have tried to install one, but it never gets invoked. Here is my filter definition in application web.xml:
<filter>
<filter-name>LoginFilter</filter-name>
<filter-class>LoginFilter</filter-class>
<description>Performs pre-login and post-login operation</description>
</filter>
<filter-mapping>
<filter-name>LoginFilter</filter-name>
<url-pattern>/j_security_check</url-pattern>
</filter-mapping>
I have some logs in the doFilter function. It seems like doFilter never gets called. However, if I set the url-pattern property to /*, doFilter gets called while rendering pages, but doesn't seem to be invoked from j_security_check.
