org.acegisecurity.wrapper
Class SecurityContextHolderAwareRequestFilter

java.lang.Object
  org.acegisecurity.wrapper.SecurityContextHolderAwareRequestFilter

All Implemented Interfaces:

javax.servlet.Filter

public class SecurityContextHolderAwareRequestFilter
extends Object
implements javax.servlet.Filter

A Filter which populates the ServletRequest with a new request wrapper.

Several request wrappers are included with the framework. The simplest version is SecurityContextHolderAwareRequestWrapper. A more complex and powerful request wrapper is SavedRequestAwareWrapper. The latter is also the default.

To modify the wrapper used, call setWrapperClass(Class).

Any request wrapper configured for instantiation by this class must provide a public constructor that accepts two arguments, being a HttpServletRequest and a PortResolver.
