Global Filter for all Web Applications

Question

In a J2EE application, how do I create a global Filter that can access other webapps installed on that app server?

Answer 1

The Servlet-API does not provide such a security leak. But some containers offer alike. Have a look at the Configuration of Apache Tomcat. Maybe there is a similar functionality for webshere, but typically you need to hire a ibm consultant to "find" the configuration.
