servlet filtering between web applications

I will explain my question a bit more:

Suppose I have a Web Application 'A' installed in my server (WAS 7 Server specifically). Suppose I have another web application 'B' installed on a different node in my WAS 7 Server.

now, what I would like to know is this: could I create a servlet filter in Application 'A' that intercepts HTTP requests made to applications 'B'?

Solution

  • No, even if they were running in the same JVM, the filters that apply are ones that are configured in the webapp that the incoming request has been mapped to.
