Looking at the spec, I don't see any requirement that the container *must* invoke those event listeners, so I think Tomcat is in-spec, here. That being said, I think a reasonable person would expect that the listener would fire even in the case of an exception condition. This is something I might want to file with the Servlet EG. At the very least, they might be able to make a statement about the intent of the EG, and provide a clarification with the next release of the Specification. Would you be willing to do that? The Servlet EG's JIRA instance is dog-slow, but usable. > One option we have considered is migrating to exclusively using > filters and handling the exceptional use case explicitly there.

The Filter interface certainly allows you to use your own try/catch blocks to make sure you intercept exceptions that propagate up the stack. - -chris -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v2 Comment: GPGTools - http://gpgtools.org iQIcBAEBCAAGBQJVVjxiAAoJEBzwKT+lPKRYVpIQAJUg37n/jybTxhhKYK/j53dL nKDK4C/PJDlwewvmeljtSHD9ghqGXR1WMgnfkXDcECVARJqgoEhOhTT+aY8W7b0M /BDvB48LiCYkaE6/z6gEqDkrz+JWo2y1p2m/3XgwOaYdhvqzlC0Le88tB+scmDdo LgaJFTrgVyTDdH1cZs3d0TAFCy+5kQR7Zt8UxxRL7xaxohwj5NB8KMVD4TZZysY8 Q3PBAsjI43bJYgLlVFX9lp3aDWKd4Ug549z2BMrFDeRivP6tkwNaCRICuluHClrx opEpQj7kvpQOUivQfmYxRTHqavoj0rgaOtocvtN/+4TRboTff6fpxSTZJtSVc/gc OIRGe7t6wr7jqLXvTw7eAV49zMsA23GwSUb1fa62kaLdmW2ohxLGpQud45yUgYSr gM01UP6gIWuckO1mMAT8kEsujUGC3eCxAUJCV9F8ZNnw4zT5SS2DIPbzvj6I5qIR q7GGmskfeijKDOHyt111McQbQFYl9liMiKBOORd1wDk9lGP/QzPqpGSvZhwDA0wa NlBABocrAgsWPjk81jjvaDdpVMVsv3269FTiQhh4D06372tai6E0/cV+uKHrPGOU BV4R6gS9FuQTc7VRiSmenusvuw5ILD1/YhnU3eU/0V+ovq5Nn0PLTq0Xr1lPnrnZ 3oLXMtc/GwZ0PNOXDDVB =fFyO -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: users-unsubscr...@tomcat.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: users-h...@tomcat.apache.org
