Not quite - you're confusing request with response. There are methods in HttpServletResponse - an Interface, not a class - to obtain a PrintWriter or ServletOutputStream that the webapp uses to generate data to be sent to the client at some point in the future. The data isn't sent until flushBuffer(), sendError(), or sendRedirect() are called. Since the HttpServletResponseWrapper class implements the interface, those methods are available via the wrapper. The filter needs to subclass the wrapper in order to subvert anything else in the filter/servlet chain. - Chuck THIS COMMUNICATION MAY CONTAIN CONFIDENTIAL AND/OR OTHERWISE PROPRIETARY MATERIAL and is thus for use only by the intended recipient.
