    <title>Java Servlet Filter Adapter</title>
    <para>
        If you want to use  SAML with a Java servlet application that doesn't have an adapter for that servlet
        platform, you can opt to use the servlet filter adapter that Keycloak has.  This adapter works a little
        differently than the other adapters.  You do not define security constraints in web.xml.  Instead you define
        a filter mapping using the Keycloak servlet filter adapter to secure the url patterns you want to secure.
    </para>

        <para>
            Backchannel logout works a bit differently than the standard adapters.  Instead of invalidating the http session
            it instead marks the session id as logged out.  There's just no way of arbitrarily invalidating an http session
            based on a session id.
        </para>

        <para>
            Backchannel logout does not currently work when you have a clustered application that uses the SAML filter.

        The Keycloak filter has the same configuration parameters available as the other adapters except you must define
        them as filter init params instead of context params.
    </para>

        You can define multiple filter mappings if you have various different secure and unsecure url patterns.
