Milan Baran commented on SHIRO-401:
-----------------------------------
Actually, the ServletContext is injected from GuiceServletContextListener
automatically.
It's enough to add these lines into configureShiro method in the ShiroWebModule.
{code}
bindBeanType(TypeLiteral.get(ServletContext.class),
Key.get(ServletContext.class, Names.named(NAME)));
bind(Key.get(ServletContext.class, Names.named(NAME))).to(ServletContext.class);
{code}
Also, the ServletContext is always available at injector creation time, because
it's initialized trough GuiceServletContextListener > getInjector.
The only way it is not, is when you initialize ShiroWebModule alone by
Guice.createInjector, lets say for Unit testing. But there is more problem that
the ServletContext is not available.
I have done a fake servlet container for guice-shiro unit testing, which work
quite well. I can share it.
