Initialize bean for auto-login

Hi all,

I am trying to initialize a backing bean property using the param 
feature.  Here is my faces config entry:

    <managed-bean>
        <managed-bean-name>LoginCtl</managed-bean-name>
        
<managed-bean-class>com.mowyourlawn.controller.LoginController</managed-bean-class>
        <managed-bean-scope>session</managed-bean-scope>
         <managed-property>
            <property-name>user.name</property-name>
            <property-class>java.lang.String</property-class>
            <value>#{param.profile}</value>
        </managed-property>       
         <managed-property>
            <property-name>user.password</property-name>
            <property-class>java.lang.String</property-class>
            <value>#{param.password}</value>
        </managed-property>           
    </managed-bean>

I am implementing an auto login feature where a site not under my 
control can pass in a user and password on the query string and then I 
will auto execute the page and validate the information passed to me. I 
was trying to find the rules for what you can specify in the 
property-name tag but have come up empty handed.  It seems that it 
doesn't like anything that is a custom object (eg user.password where 
user is a User.java object and password is a String object)

Thoughts on how to make this work?

Thanks,
Aaron Bartell

Michal,

I just read that a new release of JSF-Spring is
available (compatibility with Spring 1.1.2 - 1.1.4).

Hi,
JSF-Spring would solve your problem (although I know that it's not a small
tool and using it only for one case is pointless). Unfortunatelly it's now
supporting only spring 1.1.2.

I'm not sure that you can get something like this to go, but its
definitely a case we should consider supporting.

In the meantime, why not just provide a custom-setter for the
user.name and user.password  fields on your LoginController?
