Thank you Chris and Chuck for your replies.
I tried to write a Custom Valve but please correct me if I am wrong:
when writing a custom valve,
- Extend the ValveBase class, Implement LifeCycle (not obligatory)
- write invoke method implementation
- compile and create its .jar file and put it in Catalina_Home/lib
- point it using the context.xml or server.xml (depending on the choice at
what lever to implement the Valve)

Please correct me if anythings going wrong here.

@ Chris, Sorry but i dont quite understand what you meant by "Many of us get
paid for our software work..."
If you could give more pointers, that would be great. Since I am on short
internship, I can try out a lot of things
Or if you can give me a really basic idea to write a very basic Valve , that
would be great.
I will keep you updated if anything works out...

Thank you so much,

Cheers

Sumit
