URL of myfaces application

[ying lcs <yi...@gmail.com>]

Is it possible to change the myfaces application URL so that it does
not use '*.jsf' in the URL?  And is it possible to pass in an argument
(in my example ("abc = 1") in the myface URL ?

http://localhost:8080/myfaceapplication.jsf?abc=1

If yes, how can myface application get this value?

Thank you.

change your web.xml:

   <servlet-mapping>
     <servlet-name>Faces Servlet</servlet-name>
     <url-pattern>*.myext</url-pattern>
   </servlet-mapping>

or

   <servlet-mapping>
     <servlet-name>Faces Servlet</servlet-name>
     <url-pattern>/app/*</url-pattern>
   </servlet-mapping>

you can also change the extension for your jsp/facelets templates:

   <!-- use documents saved as *.xhtml -->	
   <context-param>
     <param-name>javax.faces.DEFAULT_SUFFIX</param-name>
     <param-value>.xhtml</param-value>
   </context-param>

java:
   FacesContext.getExternalContext().getRequestParameterMap().get("abc");

el: ${param.abc}

In the backing bean of the target page, define a variable.Iinitialize its
value in the getter method.

    *private *String myParam;

    *public *String getMyParam() {
        *if *(myParam == *null*) {
            myParam = (String) expressionResolver("#{param.abc}");
        }
        *return *myParam;
    }

    *public **void *setMyParam(String myParam) {
        *this*.myParam = myParam;
    }

    *public *Object expressionResolver(String expression) {
        Object value = *null*;

        *if *((expression.indexOf("#{") != -1) && (expression.indexOf("#{")
< expression.indexOf('}'))) {
            value =  getFacesContext().getApplication().createValueBinding(
expression).getValue(getFacesContext());
        } *else *{
            value = expression;
        }
        *return *value;
    }

Declare an input hidden field.to use it on the page.

<h:inputHidden id="hiddenParam" value="#{yourBackingBean.abc}"/>

Now you can use it even in js..

var myParam = document.getElementById('form1:hiddenParam').value;

if you look in web.xml you should see how you can map what is used to
trigger the servlet. Usually this is either */jsf or /faces/
