Execute method automatically after page has been loaded and shown to user

[an...@magnasteyr.com]

Hi All!

How can I execute a method from a backing bean AUTOMATICALLY after a page has been loaded and shown to the user?

My exactly problem is the following: 
When the user opens the first page, this page should be shown normally (and quickly) to the user. In the background the connection to the database should be build (automatically, no button should be pressed) -->I use Hibernate and the first connection (building of connection pool) takes some seconds, so this should be done in background, but the user should already see something in his browser (with an info, that the connection to the database is just built)
Is there a possibility to do that?

Thx

Regards
Andy

Andy,

There's many ways to do this.

Some ways you could do it:

1) Use the Shale ViewController stuff to define your backing bean to
be the controlling bean for your page.  It'd be able to receive events
like pre-render and post-render.

2) Create a phase listener that ran at pre-render and post-render phase.

3) Use a servlet filter -- this is how I manage my database
connections, but I have need for my database connection to be active
at all phases of JSF.
