PrimeFaces FileUploadFilter after Migration from SpringBoot 2 to SpringBoot 3

Question

I would like to migrate my SpringBoot 2 Primefaces 12 application to SpringBoot 3.

In SpringBoot 2 Filter was defined in:

import javax.servlet.Filter;

The package was changed in SpringBoot 3 to:

import jakarta.servlet.Filter;

now I have defined:

@Bean
public FilterRegistrationBean fileUploadFilter() {
    FilterRegistrationBean registration = new FilterRegistrationBean();
    registration.setFilter(new org.primefaces.webapp.filter.FileUploadFilter());
    registration.setName("PrimeFaces FileUpload Filter");
    return registration;
}

setFilter requires jakarta Filter, but primefaces.webapp.filter.FileUploadFilter is javax Filter

Is there any workaround ? Does Primefaces provide also jakarta filter ?

I don't know, and i'm not sure my question isn't stupid, but do you actually need that filter? — Nikola, Jun 14 '23 at 13:29
it seems it's not needed since PrimeFaces 5? https://stackoverflow.com/questions/8875818/how-to-use-primefaces-pfileupload-listener-method-is-never-invoked-or-uploaded — Nikola, Jun 14 '23 at 13:52
Yes don't use FileUploadFilter just use JSF Native mode. See: https://primefaces.github.io/primefaces/12_0_0/#/components/fileupload?id=getting-started-with-fileupload — Melloware, Jun 15 '23 at 18:28

This has been asked before and do not use FileUploadFilter with Jakarta as its no longer needed.

See: https://primefaces.github.io/primefaces/12_0_0/#/components/fileupload?id=getting-started-with-fileupload
