This class does not implement the javax.servlet.Filter interface and
thus it cannot be used in a web application.

It is just an internal component of HTTP connectors, that is used when
you enable gzip compression on the connector,
http://tomcat.apache.org/tomcat-6.0-doc/config/http.html

There is "compressionFilters.CompressionFilter" class in the examples
webapp though, that can be used as a Filter.
