Start and end of web request lifecycle in Spring MVC

Question

I'd like to track & print some diagnostic information (when in debug run) for when a web request starts and when it ends. Is there some kind of event/listener/callback I can register to listen for web request lifecycle events?

To make it more concrete, one of the things (not the only one) I want to do is track how long it took to process the request.

Tomcat? http://tomcat.apache.org/tomcat-7.0-doc/config/filter.html#Request_Dumper_Filter — Neil McGuigan, Dec 04 '14 at 21:48
I also want access to the objects in my Spring environment, such as the Hibernate SessionFactory. In addition, I debug with Jetty, not Tomcat. — Wouter Lievens, Dec 04 '14 at 21:48

If you are using Tomcat as your server, you can try its Request Dumper Filter:

http://tomcat.apache.org/tomcat-7.0-doc/config/filter.html#Request_Dumper_Filter

Otherwise, you could try a HandlerInterceptor in Spring Spring HandlerInterceptor vs Servlet Filters
