Running a servlet filter

[Toby Weston]

I could have sworn I've seen this already in UI, but if I want to run an existing servlet filter in an embedded UI container, would I use a decorator? are decorators the analog to servlet filters or are they something to do with templating/sitemesh? If not decorators, would I use a HttpHandler and manually "decorate" my filter having somehow initialised it beforehand?

Thanks

Stu and I did something to allow a Servlet to be a HttpHandler but it was not pretty or nice. I.e it was a horrible hack that hardly worked. Unless Stu open sourced it I think it just got deleted as soon as the we finished migrating to UI.

UI working as a Servlet is of course supported.

At another client ;) I patched the scala library Unfiltered to go direct to HttpHandlers which made test Unfiltered possible in memory.
