What do you mean when you say "write some data in an object"?

Deploying the valve is easy:

1. Compile it to .class file(s)
2. JAR your .class files into a .jar file
3. Put your .jar file into $CATALINA_HOME/lib
4. Add a <Valve className="my.Valve"> element to your <Context>
   element in META-INF/context.xml in your webapp

You'll just have to read the code. Start with the "createLogElements"
method and read everything it calls. It's pretty straightforward.
