Class ApplicationFilter

java.lang.Object

org.mentawai.core.InputWrapper

org.mentawai.filter.ApplicationFilter

All Implemented Interfaces:

Map, AfterConsequenceFilter, Filter, Input

public class ApplicationFilter
extends InputWrapper
implements AfterConsequenceFilter

This filter will place the application context in the action input. Note that the ApplicationContext class is also a Map so it can be easily injected in a pojo action without coupling with the framework API.
