> In GateIn, we have an HttpFilter called GenericFilter that is used to allow integrators/customers/partners/dev teams to add new Filters in the "portal" web application without modifying the web.xml file. This GenericFilter relies on an ExtendedFilter that allows to define filters thanks to a component-plugin. Few days ago, I wanted to create a dedicated filter that allows us to override a jsp file in portal.war from the war of my extension, this prototype allows me to realized that the GenericFilter is called too quickly in the filter chain. It should be called at least after that the entire context has been set such as the current PortalContainer and so on (i.e. after SetCurrentIdentityFilter and ThreadLocalSessionProviderInitializedFilter). Ideally it should be called in last position.
