Class FacesRequestAttributes

java.lang.Object
  extended by org.springframework.web.context.request.FacesRequestAttributes
All Implemented Interfaces:
RequestAttributes
Direct Known Subclasses:
FacesWebRequest

public class FacesRequestAttributes
extends Object
implements RequestAttributes

RequestAttributes adapter for a JSF FacesContext. Used as default in a JSF environment, wrapping the current FacesContext.

NOTE: In contrast to ServletRequestAttributes, this variant does not support destruction callbacks for scoped attributes, neither for the request scope nor for the session scope. If you rely on such implicit destruction callbacks, consider defining a Spring RequestContextListener in your web.xml.

2.5.2

Constructor Detail

FacesRequestAttributes

public FacesRequestAttributes(javax.faces.context.FacesContext facesContext)
Create a new FacesRequestAttributes adapter for the given FacesContext.

Parameters:
facesContext - the current FacesContext
See Also:
FacesContext.getCurrentInstance()
Method Detail

getFacesContext

protected final javax.faces.context.FacesContext getFacesContext()
Return the JSF FacesContext that this adapter operates on.


getExternalContext

protected final javax.faces.context.ExternalContext getExternalContext()
Return the JSF ExternalContext that this adapter operates on.

See Also:
FacesContext.getExternalContext()

getAttributeMap

protected Map<String,Object> getAttributeMap(int scope)
Return the JSF attribute Map for the specified scope

Parameters:
scope - constant indicating request or session scope
Returns:
the Map representation of the attributes in the specified scope
See Also:
RequestAttributes.SCOPE_REQUEST, RequestAttributes.SCOPE_SESSION

getAttribute

public Object getAttribute(String name,
                           int scope)
Description copied from interface: RequestAttributes
Return the value for the scoped attribute of the given name, if any.

Specified by:
getAttribute in interface RequestAttributes
Parameters:
name - the name of the attribute
scope - the scope identifier
Returns:
the current attribute value, or null if not found

setAttribute

public void setAttribute(String name,
                         Object value,
                         int scope)
Description copied from interface: RequestAttributes
Set the value for the scoped attribute of the given name, replacing an existing value (if any).

Specified by:
setAttribute in interface RequestAttributes
Parameters:
name - the name of the attribute
value - the value for the attribute
scope - the scope identifier

removeAttribute

public void removeAttribute(String name,
                            int scope)
Description copied from interface: RequestAttributes
Remove the scoped attribute of the given name, if it exists.

Note that an implementation should also remove a registered destruction callback for the specified attribute, if any. It does, however, not need to execute a registered destruction callback in this case, since the object will be destroyed by the caller (if appropriate).

Specified by:
removeAttribute in interface RequestAttributes
Parameters:
name - the name of the attribute
scope - the scope identifier

getAttributeNames

public String[] getAttributeNames(int scope)
Description copied from interface: RequestAttributes
Retrieve the names of all attributes in the scope.

Specified by:
getAttributeNames in interface RequestAttributes
Parameters:
scope - the scope identifier
Returns:
the attribute names as String array

registerDestructionCallback

public void registerDestructionCallback(String name,
                                        Runnable callback,
                                        int scope)
Description copied from interface: RequestAttributes
Register a callback to be executed on destruction of the specified attribute in the given scope.

Implementations should do their best to execute the callback at the appropriate time: that is, at request completion or session termination, respectively. If such a callback is not supported by the underlying runtime environment, the callback must be ignored and a corresponding warning should be logged.

Note that 'destruction' usually corresponds to destruction of the entire scope, not to the individual attribute having been explicitly removed by the application. If an attribute gets removed via this facade's RequestAttributes.removeAttribute(String, int) method, any registered destruction callback should be disabled as well, assuming that the removed object will be reused or manually destroyed.

NOTE: Callback objects should generally be serializable if they are being registered for a session scope. Otherwise the callback (or even the entire session) might not survive web app restarts.

Specified by:
registerDestructionCallback in interface RequestAttributes
Parameters:
name - the name of the attribute to register the callback for
callback - the destruction callback to be executed
scope - the scope identifier

resolveReference

public Object resolveReference(String key)
Description copied from interface: RequestAttributes
Resolve the contextual reference for the given key, if any.

At a minimum: the HttpServletRequest/PortletRequest reference for key "request", and the HttpSession/PortletSession reference for key "session".

Specified by:
resolveReference in interface RequestAttributes
Parameters:
key - the contextual key
Returns:
the corresponding object, or null if none found

getSessionId

public String getSessionId()
Description copied from interface: RequestAttributes
Return an id for the current underlying session.

Specified by:
getSessionId in interface RequestAttributes
Returns:
the session id as String (never null

getSessionMutex

public Object getSessionMutex()
Description copied from interface: RequestAttributes
Expose the best available mutex for the underlying session: that is, an object to synchronize on for the underlying session.

Specified by:
getSessionMutex in interface RequestAttributes
Returns:
the session mutex to use (never null
