How do I redirect to the current page in Servlet Filter?

java, redirect, servlet-filters

Solution

Use HttpServletrequest.getRequestURI. This should work for you:

httpResp.sendRedirect(httpReq.getRequestURI());

Problem

I have a page say: /myapp/test.jsp?queryString=Y. The filter needs to redirect to current page. It should go to /myapp/test.jsp (without the query string). The below seems to bring it to to the context root: /myapp. I am running in WAS6.1. ``` public void doFilter(ServletRequest req, ServletResponse resp, FilterChain chain) throws IOException, ServletException { HttpServletRequest httpReq = (HttpServletRequest) req; HttpServletResponse httpResp = (HttpServletResponse) resp; { boolean blnNeedToRedirect = true; if (blnNeedToRedirect) { httpResp.sendRedirect("."); return; } chain.doFilter(req, resp); } ```
