public class RequestContextFilter extends OncePerRequestFilter
Servlet Filter that exposes the request to the current thread, through bothLocaleContextHolder
andRequestContextHolder
. To be registered as filter inweb.xml
.Alternatively, Spring's
RequestContextListener
and Spring'sDispatcherServlet
also expose the same request context to the current thread.This filter is mainly for use with third-party servlets, e.g. the JSF FacesServlet. Within Spring's own web support, DispatcherServlet's processing is perfectly sufficient.

Method Detail
setThreadContextInheritable
public void setThreadContextInheritable(boolean threadContextInheritable)
Set whether to expose the LocaleContext and RequestAttributes as inheritable for child threads (using anInheritableThreadLocal
).Default is "false", to avoid side effects on spawned background threads. Switch this to "true" to enable inheritance for custom child threads which are spawned during request processing and only used for this request (that is, ending after their initial task, without reuse of the thread).
WARNING: Do not use inheritance for child threads if you are accessing a thread pool which is configured to potentially add new threads on demand (e.g. a JDK
ThreadPoolExecutor
), since this will expose the inherited context to such a pooled thread.
shouldNotFilterAsyncDispatch
protected boolean shouldNotFilterAsyncDispatch()
Returns "false" so that the filter may set up the request context in each asynchronously dispatched thread.- Overrides:
shouldNotFilterAsyncDispatch
in classOncePerRequestFilter
shouldNotFilterErrorDispatch
protected boolean shouldNotFilterErrorDispatch()
Returns "false" so that the filter may set up the request context in an error dispatch.- Overrides:

doFilterInternal
protected void doFilterInternal(HttpServletRequest request, HttpServletResponse response, FilterChain filterChain) throws ServletException, IOException
Description copied from class:OncePerRequestFilter
Same contract as fordoFilter
, but guaranteed to be just invoked once per request within a single request thread. SeeOncePerRequestFilter.shouldNotFilterAsyncDispatch()
for details.Provides HttpServletRequest and HttpServletResponse arguments instead of the default ServletRequest and ServletResponse ones.
