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.
