Valves,

["Sahu, Santosh" <Sa...@ie.fid-intl.com>]

Folks,
Any help is appreciated.
I am trying to write my own valve and put it in the jetspeed piple line.

Question is I want to call this for every request and up on a conditions
success redirect to a page. What is the best option ? Is to use
response.sendRedirect or use PageProfiler to do the job.
If it is response.sendRedirect then when I need to call this valve in the
pipeline?
If it is Page profiler when I need to call.

Code:
public void invoke(RequestContext request, ValveContext context) throws
PipelineException
	{     
	    	log.info("in Invoke -TCValveImpl");
	    	try
	    	{
	    	//Get the Authenticated Used Id
	    	//If(userId not null){
	    	//Call ITermsAndConditions to check the whether this user
accepted TC
	    	//if Accepted {
	    	//context.invokeNext(request);
	    	//}
	    	//else 
	    	HttpServletResponse resp = request.getResponse();
        	String basePath=request.getPortalURL().getBasePath();
        	//Get the LoginPage PSML file name from property file (can
be from spring xml files)
        	resp.sendRedirect(basePath+"/login.psml");
	    	}catch(Exception e)
	    	{
	    		e.printStackTrace();
	    	}
	 }

Personally, I use response.sendRedirect for my custom security valve which
redirects users to a federated login page.  Here is my pipleing config:

  <bean id="ugs-webkey-pipeline"
        class="org.apache.jetspeed.pipeline.JetspeedPipeline"
        init-method="initialize"	
  >
   <constructor-arg>
   	<value>UGSWebkeyPipeline</value>
   </constructor-arg>
   <constructor-arg>
    <list>
    	<ref bean="webkeyValve"/> 
	<ref bean="localeSelectorValve" />
    	<ref bean="localizationValve"/>
    	<ref bean="capabilityValve"/>
      <ref bean="portalURLValve"/>
    	<ref bean="profilerValve"/>		
      <ref bean="customizerValve"/>
    	<ref bean="containerValve"/>
    	<ref bean="actionValve"/>
	<ref bean="DecorationValve" />
    	<ref bean="aggregatorValve"/>
    	<ref bean="cleanUpValve"/>
    </list>
    </constructor-arg>
  </bean>   
  
As for the position in the pipeline, you can see mine is the first valve.
For redirects, you should be able to do this prior to the response being
committed.  I am not entirely sure which valve in the default J2 pipeline
commits the response, but I am guessing it happens in one of these:
aggregatorValve, actionValve or conatinerValve.
