ServletContext should be available to modules during startup
------------------------------------------------------------
Key: MAGNOLIA-3376
URL: http://jira.magnolia-cms.com/browse/MAGNOLIA-3376
Project: Magnolia
Issue Type: Improvement
Components: modulemechanism
Reporter: Tobias Mattsson
Assignee: Tobias Mattsson
Currently the ServletContext is not available to modules during startup. This
is for instance a problem in integration scenarios where the module starts a
framework such as Spring. In blossom this has been solved by adding an extra
context listener. A cleaner solution would be to make it available in standard
magnolia.
Modules are started using SystemContext. Set in ConfigLoader.load() or
ModuleManagerWebUI.execute().
If we add getServletContext() to SystemContext it still has to be taken from
somewhere. The implementation we use for SystemContext is configured in
mgnl-beans.properties and created by Components. The implementation would have
to look for it somewhere, probably a static field.
If we had a DI container in place then ServletContext could have been of of the
injectible types and the problem would be solved.
