Managed bean lookup from servlet filter?

[Carl Sziebert <ca...@vegas.com>]

Hi all:
 
I'm trying to access a managed bean from a servlet filter.  The filter
is defined to wrap the '*.jsf' url pattern.  My code to do the lookup
functions something like this:
 
getApplication().createValueBinding("#{myBean}").getValue(FacesContext.g
etCurrentInstance())
 
And my bean mapping looks like this:
<managed-bean>
 <managed-bean-name>myBean</managed-bean-name>
 <managed-bean-class>com.vegas.MyBean</managed-bean-class>
 <managed-bean-scope>application</managed-bean-scope>
</managed-bean>

Unfortunately the FacesContext is null in all cases.  Is there a better
way to do this?  Is lookup of a managed bean from a filter even
possible?
 
Thanks in advance.
 
Carl

Can't you use Phase Listener instead of servlet filter?

Try this in your doFIlter():

FacesContextFactory contextFactory = (FacesContextFactory)
FactoryFinder.getFactory(FactoryFinder.FACES_CONTEXT_FACTORY);
LifecycleFactory lifecycleFactory = (LifecycleFactory)
FactoryFinder.getFactory(FactoryFinder.LIFECYCLE_FACTORY);
Lifecycle lifecycle =
lifecycleFactory.getLifecycle(LifecycleFactory.DEFAULT_LIFECYCLE);

FacesContext facesContext = contextFactory.getFacesContext(servletContext,
request, response, lifecycle);

Let me know if it works.
