[b]Once Request filter[/b]

public class MenuFilter extends OncePerRequestFilter {

    /**

     * 
     * @param request the current request
     * @param response the current response
     * @param chain the chain
     * @throws IOException when something goes wrong
     * @throws ServletException when a communication failure happens

[b]Get session attributes[/b]
