NonFacesRequestServlet doesn't work proper with JSF 1.2(MyFaces
---------------------------------------------------------------
Key: TOBAGO-996
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/TOBAGO-996
Project: MyFaces Tobago
Issue Type: Bug
Components: Core
Affects Versions: 1.0.35
Environment: Tomcat 6.0.28, MyFaces 1.2.10
Reporter: Sven Bunge
We developed a servlet extending the NonFacesRequestServlet to answer
NonFacesRequests with NonFacesResponses - but we need a FacesContext to access
JSF-manages beans in our logic. Now we switched to JSF 1.2 and the Servlet
return HTTP status 404 everytime.
After a short period of investigation I think it is a problem to create a
UIViewRoot and don't answer with a FacesResponse. - I removed the two lines:
UIViewRoot view = viewHandler.createView(facesContext, viewId);
facesContext.setViewRoot(view);
and it works like a charm.
I think an UIViewRoot is only needed to match some navigation rules. Maybe the
creation could be done in a protected method that could I override - or it is
created later if the response is not completed in invokeApplication-method.
