Subject: Adding contextPath to request using a Valve
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit


I'm trying to automatically assign a context path to requests from a specific
URL using a Valve, so in the following example code requests to the URL
http://www.site2.com should hit my <Context> in server.xml with the path
"/site2" :

public void invoke(Request request, Response response) throws
java.io.IOException, javax.servlet.ServletException {
	if(request.getRequestURL().indexOf("www.site2.com") != -1) {
		request.setContextPath("/site2");
		System.out.println("Context path set to " + request.getContextPath());
	}
	getNext().invoke(request, response);
}

The system out is being called so I would have expected the same behaviour
that I get when I type http://www.site2.com/site2 into the browser. However,
the default <Context> is being hit.

Is this something anyone has tried to do using a Valve or is there any
better way to achieve this kind of behaviour. Any advice would be very much
appreciated.

Ronny.
