Doubt in Filters ????

[Jayashree Mohan]

This statement -
Filters support an initialization mechanism that includes an init() method that is guaranteed to be called before the filter is used to handle requests .

HFSJ say that this statment is not true?? Why??

[Marc Peabody]

Ummm... page 703, question 5, option D... HFSJ says the statement is true. Why are you claiming that HFSJ says it is not true, Jayashree?

[Jayashree Mohan]

In the HFSJ book that I have, its says that, this statement is not true.

"public void init(FilterConfig fc){}"

Hope it help you!
