servlet-3.0

Normally I would have added org.springframework.web.filter.DelegatingFilterProxy with a snippet like this to web.xml: <filter> <filter-name>springSecurityFilterChain</filter-name> <filter-class> org.springframework.web.filter.DelegatingFilterProxy </filter-class> </filter> <filter-mapping> <filter-name>springSecurityFilterChain</filter-name> <url-pattern>/*</url-pattern> </filter-mapping> But with Servlet 3.0 Container and Jetty, I've removed web.xml. I'm trying to add DelegatingFilterProxy to Jetty's launch with: context.addFilter(DelegatingFilterProxy.class, "/*", EnumSet.allOf

I want to know the directory structure for using servlet 3.0 with Tomcat 7. I have used annotation @WebServlet without initialization parameters. I want to know what is to be written in web.xml file then?? Is and is still to be written...?? The file is stored in the classes folder of the tomcat. This is all you need in web.xml : <web-app xmlns="http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/javaee" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xsi:schemaLocation="http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/javaee http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/javaee/web-app_3_0.xsd" version="3.0"> 3.0-compatible servlet container (like

As I understand, a Spring based web application is initialized as below: Step 1 : Servlet container (e.g. Tomcat) locates the implementation of ServletContainerInitializer , which is SpringServletContainerInitializer . Step 2 : SpringServletContainerInitializer creates DispatcherServlet and ContextLoaderListener Step 3 : DispatcherServlet creates servlet application context . And ContextLoaderListener creates root application context . Step 1 is defined by Servlet 3.0 spec. Step 2, 3 are totally defined by Spring. I can see the rational of putting web beans in servlet context and non-web beans

What is the recommended way to add Spring Security to a web application that is using Spring's new WebApplicationInitializer interface instead of the web.xml file? I'm looking for the equivalent of: <filter> <filter-name>springSecurityFilterChain</filter-name> <filter-class>org.springframework.web.filter.DelegatingFilterProxy</filter-class> </filter> UPDATE The provided answers are reasonable but they both assume that I've got a servletContext instance. I've looked through the hierarchy of WebApplicationInitializer s and I don't see any access to the servlet context unless I choose to override

I tried to modify @BalusC excellent tutorial here to send gziped compressed files. This is a working java class : import java.io.File; import java.io.FileInputStream; import java.io.FileNotFoundException; import java.io.IOException; import java.io.InputStream; import java.io.OutputStream; import java.io.OutputStreamWriter; import java.io.PrintWriter; import java.net.HttpURLConnection; import java.net.MalformedURLException; import java.net.URL; import java.net.URLConnection; import java.util.zip.GZIPOutputStream; public final class NetworkService { // *** EDIT THOSE AS APROPRIATE private static
