Resolution: Fixed
Doneeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee :).
> Tomahawk extensions code should not parse web.xml
> -------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: TOMAHAWK-1323
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/TOMAHAWK-1323
> Project: MyFaces Tomahawk
> Issue Type: Task
> Reporter: Simon Kitching
> Assignee: Hazem Saleh
> Priority: Blocker
> Fix For: 1.1.7
>
>
> In earlier Tomahawk releases, the ExtensionsFilter class provides a number of
> features, including resource-serving and file-upload support. It does need
> some config parameters, and these were simply defined as filter-specific init
> params.
> However a custom TomahawkFacesContextFactory now allows this functionality to
> be available without configuring a servlet filter at all. Therefore there
> needs to be some way for this new code to get the needed init params.
> The current code parses the web.xml and looks for filter-specific init
> params, but this is complex and not intuitive for users.
> It seems that the most sensible way is simply to use
> ServletContext.getInitParameter -- for servlet config
> PortletContext.getInitParameter -- for portlet config
> This does require some kind of reflection trickery, as having the portlet api
> in the classpath is optional.
> Note that if a user does configure a filter, then things work as they always
> did - config params are read from the filter config. Being able to use
> "extensions" functionality without configuring the filter is a brand new
> feature, so there is no backwards-compatibility issue with using a different
> configuration approach.
