[jira] [Commented] (SLING-2790) Need a way to get the resource of the original request in a subcomponent

Carsten Ziegeler commented on SLING-2790:
-----------------------------------------

Looking at the javadoc of RequestPathInfo I'm not sure if this is a bug or correct behaviour right now. RequestPathInfo talks about decompositing of the URL so following this docs it should always point to the original request and not to the current resource being processed. So either the implementation is wrong or the javadoc needs an update.

In any case I think it would make sense to have a method on the request which returns the original/first resource which was targetted by the client

> - I have created a component at /apps/training/components/tasklist/tasklist.jsp.
> - I have a page node at /content/training with a sling:resourceType of training/components/page
> - That page has a subnode /content/training/content/tasklist with a sling:resourceType of training/components/tasklist (the tasklist.jsp from above)
> In the tasklist.jsp, I would like to get the path to the resource of the original HTTP request, i.e. /content/training. I expected to get it using slingRequest.getRequestPathInfo().getResourcePath() but that gets me the path to the current resource (/content/training/content/tasklist), not the path to the request.
> Having the original resource in a predefined variable or a call like slingRequest.getOriginalRequestPathInfo() would be very helpful.
