Solr declares a filter in its web.xml which handles the request (actually handles it, not just intercept it). Hence any filter that I add to my web context using jetty's weboverride.xml technique does not work, because the request never reaches my filter. I need to add a filter before Solr's filter to this web application, and I do not want to modify the solr web descriptor as such.
Is there a way to use jetty's web override file to add a filter before an already defined filter? Any help is highly appreciated.
