Execution order of servlet filters
published January 13, 2010
In JEE Servlet spec 2.5 schema, servlet filter execution order is defined like this:
Declaration of the filter mappings in this web application is done by using filter-mappingType. The container uses the filter-mapping declarations to decide which filters to apply to a request, and in what order. The container matches the request URI to a Servlet in the normal way. To determine which filters to apply it matches filter-mapping declarations either on servlet-name, or on url-pattern for each filter-mapping element, depending on which style is used. The order in which filters are invoked is the order in which filter-mapping declarations that match a request URI for a servlet appear in the list of filter-mapping elements.The filter-name value must be the value of the filter-name sub-elements of one of the filter declarations in the deployment descriptor.
I never remember whether it is the order of “filter” or “filter-mapping” elements. Now you and I will find the answer here.
