Adding a response filter

Response filters are filters that are invoked when a response is received from the database server. Normally, the response will simply be forwarded to the client, but you can create one or more filter to interfere with that:

• you can change the response, for instance change a result set

• you can notify an other system about the response, perhaps for security reasons, or for logging purposes

• you can skip the response, for instance a specific row in a result set

• you can replace the response with your own response, for instance by inserting one or more rows in a result set, or by replacing a result set with an error message
