how to exclude a url in filtermapping

Question

web.xml

<filter>
    <filter-name>SessionCheckFilter</filter-name>
    <filter-class>filter.SessionCheckFilter</filter-class>
</filter>
<filter-mapping>
    <filter-name>SessionCheckFilter</filter-name>
    <url-pattern>/faces/app/admin/*</url-pattern>
</filter-mapping>

I'm trying to exclude the /faces/app/admin/index.xhtml only, is there any way to do this?

If there's no exclude a url patterin in web.xml, maybe I can manipulate the doFilter() method to exclude the url?

Another way : http://www.coderanch.com/t/169859/java-Web-Component-SCWCD/certification/Filter-Exclude-url-pattern — VKPRO, Jul 16 '14 at 04:51

      public void doFilter(ServletRequest servletRequest,
                     ServletResponse servletResponse,
                     FilterChain filterChain) throws IOException,
                                                     ServletException {
        HttpServletRequest request=(HttpServletRequest)servletRequest;

           String path = request.getPathInfo();
          if ((path != null) && (!path.equals("your path")){
         // write filter logic
            }
     }

Try above code.

This doesn't work. What is the request object? – kazanaki Jun 19 '15 at 09:53
servletRequest only-- Can you post your web.xml and Filter Code – Abhinay Jun 19 '15 at 10:26
You need to change your answer. You are missing a cast to HttpServletRequest. That actually contains the getPathInfo() method. – kazanaki Jun 19 '15 at 10:53
