[Q] intercept-url Configuration

[khoying]

Maybe this is not the correct way to do it, but I need to utilize a different defaultTargetUrl that is dependent upon the url that the user requested.

I would like to define multiple AuthenticationProcessingFilters and then reference the correct one in the filters parameter of the intercept-url. However, it is not clear to me if I can do this or how to reference them. Perhaps by bean name?

Thanks in Advance,
Ken

You can extend AuthenticationProcessingFilter and override determineTargetUrl(HttpServletRequest request) method.
Then configure extended filter:

<beans:bean id="myFilter" class="com.mycompany.MySpecialAuthenticationFilter">
<custom-filter position="AUTHENTICATION_PROCESSING_FILTER"/>
</beans:bean>

I thought about doing it that way, but it really adds to the complexity because I want the implementation to be tied to a url pattern and that pattern is already configured in the intercept-url.
