Hi
Group
In our project we are making
different web modules. All these web modules are packaged in a form of war
files. We have one more web module which acts as a controller web module which
is also packed in a war file. So we have following files present in the
server
WAR1.war
WAR2.war
WAR3.war
WARCONTROLLER.war
The planned flow is, first the
user request will hit the controller web module (WARCONTROLLER.war) and then
depending on the some decisions it will route the request to one of the web
module (WAR1.war/WAR2.war/WAR3.war). In all the war file there is a servlet
which handles the request. So it looks clearly like a servlet chaining case,
where servlet present in WARCONTROLLER.war will chain the call to other
servlet present in different WAR files.
As these servlets are part of
their own web context they are invisible to each other. So how it is possible
to do a servlet chaining by considering the fact mentioned above. We don’t
want to go for request redirect thing because that will hit us in performance.
As for as possible this routing should happen inside the server only.
Will you kindly help me to solve
this puzzle?
