Dear Wiki user,

You have subscribed to a wiki page or wiki category on "Tomcat Wiki" for change

The following page has been changed by xxd82329:

New page:
Here we want to convert tomcat internal into somewhat more standard Servlet 
filters. So we need a place to put those configurations for these converted 
filters. 

For global level filters(for all the servlet in this tomcat instance), we have 
conf/web.xml file to put configurations. And for servlet level filters(wrapper 
level in tomcat), we have individual web.xml files too. The question is, what 
if the filter should  be engine/host/context level, where do we put the 
configuration? 

I think we could add those configurations into conf/server.xml, and we could 
also support "$CATALINA_BASE/conf/[enginename]/engine-filters.default" for 
engine level filters, 
"$CATALINA_BASE/conf/[enginename]/[hostname]/host-filters.default" for host 
level filters and 
"$CATALINA_BASE/conf/[enginename]/[hostname]/context.xml.default" for context 
levelfilters just as tomcat do now for "context.xml.default". 

Are there any other places that could put the configurations for those 
converted filters? Any comments are welcomed. Thank you for your time.
