[servlet-spec users] [jsr369-experts] [141-GenericFilter/HttpFilter] ACTION: PROPOSAL

From: Edward Burns <edward.burns_at_oracle.com>
Date: Mon, 5 Oct 2015 15:29:40 -0700

Here's another one I'd like to get in for EDR. Like
142-ListenerDefaultMethods, this one came from the users list.

I've uploaded a snapshot of the javadoc to [1] but basically this adds:

* Default no-op methods in javax.servlet.Filter

  destroy()

  init()

* New abstract class javax.servlet.GenericFilter [2]

* New abstract class javax.servlet.http.HttpFilter [3]

Please weigh in on these by 17:00 PDT Wednesday 2015-10-07.

Thanks,

Ed
