Web.xml <filter-mapping> does not work when using <servlet-name>
I have web.xml that has this in it:
<filter>
<description>CASRebroadcastFilter</description>
<filter-name>CASRebroadcastFilter</filter-name>
<filter-class>edu.utah.acs.tek.filters.CASSingleSignOutRebroadcast</filter-class>
</filter>
(... more CAS-filters)
<servlet>
<servlet-name>dispatcher</servlet-name>
<servlet-class>org.springframework.web.servlet.DispatcherServlet</servlet-class>
<load-on-startup>1</load-on-startup>
</servlet>
<servlet-mapping>
<servlet-name>dispatcher</servlet-name>
<url-pattern>*.do</url-pattern>
</servlet-mapping>
<filter-mapping>
<filter-name>CASRebroadcastFilter</filter-name>
<url-pattern>*.do</url-pattern>
</filter-mapping>
(... more CAS-filter-mappings and the rest of my web.xml...)
Environment: Spring 2.5, Glassfish 2.1
And it works as expected, namely: CASRebroadcastFilter intercepts and processes the corresponding calls and allows you to skip everything else.
But if I changed my filter mapping to this:
<filter-mapping>
<filter-name>CASRebroadcastFilter</filter-name>
<servlet-name>dispatcher</servlet-name>
</filter-mapping>
This does not work. And "does not work," I mean exactly this: everything goes through the CASRebroadcastFilter, as if it simply does not exist, and not a single error or other thing is output.
As if the tag <servlet-name>just didn't work in the context of any aspect of my environment.
Has anyone else seen this or knew what could be causing this?
