Proposal for 3.0 API: javax.portlet.faces.application.BridgeNavigationHandler
and associated BridgeNavigationHandlerFactory
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Key: PORTLETBRIDGE-196
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/PORTLETBRIDGE-196
Project: MyFaces Portlet Bridge
Issue Type: New Feature
Components: General
Affects Versions: 3.0.0
Reporter: Neil Griffin
Assignee: Michael Freedman
This abstract class would define the contract for a brige-specific
NavigationHandler that fortifies the JSF runtime with the ability to handle
to-view-id entries in navigaion-case blocks that respect the
Bridge.PORTLET_MODE_PARAMETER parameter for switching to a different
PortletMode(s) and the Bridge.PORTLET_WINDOWSTATE_PARAMETER parameter for
switching to a different WindowState(s).
It would also have the ability to react to changes in portlet modes that were
done programattically by portlet developers that called
StateAwareResponse.setWindowState(WindowState) during the INVOKE_APPLICATION
phase of the JSF lifecycle.
Finally, this abstraction would remove the requirement for setting values on
the ActionResponse in the ExternalContext.encodeActionURL(String) method as
described in Spec section 5.4.2. Strictly speaking that method, is only
supposed to return a value, and not take any underlying actions.
