Martin Marinschek updated MYFACES-453:
--------------------------------------
Attachment: (was: ignore.txt)
> Tomahawk's use of HttpServletRequest breaks JSF Portlets
> --------------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: MYFACES-453
> URL: http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MYFACES-453
> Project: MyFaces
> Type: Bug
> Components: Tomahawk
> Versions: 1.0.9 beta
> Reporter: Stan Silvert
> Assignee: Stan Silvert
>
> I have a report of a user who wanted to use JSCookMenu in a portlet. This
> results in a ClassCastException because
> org.apache.myfaces.component.html.util.AddResource assumes that the
> underlying request object will be an HttpServletRequest.
> I will fix this for AddResource, but I suspect that there are other offending
> classes in Tomahawk.
> For future reference, you should always use methods from ExternalContext
> instead of doing (HttpServletRequest)ExternalContext.getRequest().
> If you MUST use features of HttpServletRequest that ExternalContext doesn't
> offer then you should use the PortletUtil to make sure that you don't break
> portlets. To tell if you are running in a portlet environment, you can say:
> org.apache.myfaces.portlet.PortletUtil.isPortletRequest(FacesContext
> facesContext)
> Note: calling PortletUtil does not put any dependency on the Portlet API.
