Sharing FacesContext across Applications

["Sidhik, Rosmon" <Ro...@AIG.com>]

Hi All,

 

My environment is tomcat 6.0.1.x, myfaces 1.2.2, tomahawk 1.1.6, activemq
4.1.1, spring2.5.4, hibernate3.2.6.

 

We are developing an application with each module deployed as a separate
war. 

We have a main app which takes care of single sign on and then we navigate
to the individual apps from this application.

We use tomahawk jscookmenu for navigation which contains all the menu items
for each app.

 

We want to be able to share the facescontext from the main app in all the
other apps.

This would help us to have all the faces configuration(faces-config) for all
the apps in the main app and just reuse the same facescontext.

 

I'm not sure if the approach is appropriate but I would like to avoid the
duplication of the navigation rules, managed bean configuration,etc in each
app(war file).

It would be really helpful if I can get some pointers on what approach could
help me to solve this.
