Class HideWebInfFilter

java.lang.Object

org.kuali.rice.krad.web.filter.HideWebInfFilter

All Implemented Interfaces:

javax.servlet.Filter

public class HideWebInfFilter
extends Object
implements javax.servlet.Filter

A simple filter that 404s any urls to embedded module WEB-INF directories. Another solution would be for the container to disable directory browsing, however files may still be accessed directly. This filter will pre-emptively catch the URL which means that application code cannot actually handle those URLs (for instance, to do its own error handling). There is probably a better way to do this, e.g. a filter to bean proxy in some spring context, but the sample app doesn't really have a web context of its own to put this in.
