If I have the following filter config in web.xml

  <filter>
    <filter-name>UploadFilter</filter-name>
    <filter-class>com.sun.webui.jsf.util.UploadFilter</filter-class>
    <init-param>
      <param-name>maxSize</param-name>
      <param-value>1000000</param-value>
    </init-param>
  </filter>

Then can someone tell me what interface I need to use from my app to get
access to the maxSize parameter? If I can get ahold of the
javax.servlet.FilterConfig, then I can call getInitParameter("maxSize")
on it and I'm in business, right? So then how do I get access to the
FilterConfig? I would have thought that UploadFilter would have a
getFilterConfig() method but it doesn't. Even if it did, how would I
get a handle to the UploadFilter object?
