[opencms-dev] Cache and compression filters for use with OpenCms

[Alex !]

GZIPFilter (for compressing response to client) works great!
Source code attached. (3 files)

Add this to your web.xml:

	<filter>
		<filter-name>GZIPFilter</filter-name>
		<filter-class>your.packagename.here.GZIPFilter</filter-class>
	</filter>

	<filter-mapping>
		<filter-name>GZIPFilter</filter-name>
		<url-pattern>/*</url-pattern>
	</filter-mapping>

I have commented out the system.out.println statements for testing/debug 
requests/responses just uncomment to see the output in console.

btw. source code is freely distributable with authors permission (see 
previous link).
