greetings all,iam using spring security 3
and i want to perform some logic(saving some data in the session) when the user is visiting the site and he's remembered so i extended the GenericFilterBean class and performed the logic in the doFilter method then complete the filter chain by calling the chain.doFilter method,and then inserted that filter after the
remember me filter in the security.xml file?
but there's a problem is the filter is executed on each page
even if the user is remembered or not
is there's something wrong with the filter implementation or the position of the filter?
and i have a simple question,is the filter chain by default is executed on each page?
and when making a custom filter should i add it to the web.xml too?
the filter class:
package projects.internal;
import java.io.IOException;
import javax.servlet.FilterChain;
import javax.servlet.ServletException;
import javax.servlet.ServletRequest;
import javax.servlet.ServletResponse;
import javax.servlet.http.HttpServletRequest;
import javax.servlet.http.HttpServletResponse;
import org.springframework.beans.factory.annotation.Autowired;
import org.springframework.security.core.Authentication;
import org.springframework.security.core.context.SecurityContextHolder;
import org.springframework.web.filter.GenericFilterBean;
import projects.ProjectManager;
public class rememberMeFilter extends GenericFilterBean {
private ProjectManager projectManager;
@Autowired
public rememberMeFilter(ProjectManager projectManager) {
this.projectManager = projectManager;
}
@Override
public void doFilter(ServletRequest req, ServletResponse res,
FilterChain chain) throws IOException, ServletException {
System.out.println("In The Filter");
Authentication auth = (Authentication) SecurityContextHolder
.getContext().getAuthentication();
HttpServletResponse response = ((HttpServletResponse) res);
HttpServletRequest request = ((HttpServletRequest) req);
// if the user is not remembered,do nothing
if (auth == null) {
chain.doFilter(request, response);
}
else {
// the user is remembered save some data in the session
System.out.println("User Is Remembered");
chain.doFilter(request, response);
}
}
}
the security.xml file:
<beans:beans xmlns="http://www.springframework.org/schema/security"
