Method Detail

create

public static FilterInvocation create(String contextPath,
                                      String uri)

Creates a FilterInvocation for the specified contextPath and Uri. Note the normal subclasses of DefaultFilterInvocationDefinitionSource disregard the contextPath when evaluating which secure object metadata applies to a given FilterInvocation, so generally the contextPath is unimportant unless you are using a custom FilterInvocationDefinitionSource.

Parameters:

contextPath - the contextPath that will be contained within the FilterInvocationHttpServletRequest

uri - the URI of the request, such as /foo/default.jsp

Returns:

a fully-formed FilterInvocation (never null)

Throws:

UnsupportedOperationException - DOCUMENT ME!

Creates a FilterInvocation for the specified Uri. The contextPath is set to a default value.

Parameters:

uri - the URI of the request, such as /foo/default.jsp
