filter.classes

Background

The filtering framework in Funnelback optionally allows for the specification of separate Java classes to provide filtering of content. Funnelback provides several filters for filtering common file formats. If specialised filtering is required however, the filters must be specified here.

Any filters specified here must implement the com.funnelback.filter.api.filters.Filter.
