begin and end request processing event in Seam ?

[joerg.joerg.schneider.e-custody.de]

Hi,

since we need to execute some logic very early in the request processing chain and then very late when it ends it thought I could easily hook in some logic via Seam events. Unfortunately, I did not find any useful events that are thrown when request processing begins or when it ends. Aren't events the right way of doing those kinds of things or am I missing something here ? May be there is a better way to implement.

Any help appreciated.

Thanks, Joerg

Hi,

found it out myself - I'm using filters now. Actually by extending the LoggingFilter of Seam, I have exaclty what I was looking for.

Unfortunately you dont describe what kind of logic you are implementing.

I am just curious, as the LoggingFilter has a special purpose: logging. You might violate the Seperation of Concern - pattern

Hi,

thanks for your reply - actually I extended the LoggingFilter since beside the username, we also need to have additional information available within our log statements - most importantly the current thread number.
Since we run more than 10 applications all logging into the same log file, we need to have some filter criteria at hands how to seaparate which log statements belong to which application. The thread number (actually together with the thread pool name) is a perfect fir for us.

Cheers, Joerg
