Jersey ContainerRequestFilter not triggered

Question

I\'m trying to use a ContainerRequestFilter to enforce some authentication on a Tomcat based Jersey application. I followed this document. Problem : the filter

Answer 1

The minimum requirements to work filters with jersey:

• add @Provider annotation to filter class
• the namespace of filter class has to be included in 'jersey.config.server.provider.packages' init-param

Any other settings aren't required (e.g. 'com.sun.jersey.spi.container.ContainerRequestFilters' init-param or ResourceConfig)
