Hi. This new Seam link tag solves a few problems I had. Thanks! There is one
thing missing from my point of view though. I would like to specify custom urls
with this tag.
I have been using url rewriting (in and out) to make make friendly URLs for our
Seam based application. E.g /myfolder/something/ gets rewritten to
/thing.seam?a=myfolder&b=something.
Would it be possible to add a new attribute to the link tag that enables me to
override the detected URL? How about 'link' as the attribute. Here is an
example:
<s:link value="view" link="#{mycomponent.niceUrl}"/>
We would still be able to use all the other attributes. To prove that this
works I coded a change to your HtmlLink class. Here is the segment prior to my
change:
| String url =
context.getApplication().getViewHandler().getActionURL(context, viewId);
| String encodedUrl = context.getExternalContext().encodeActionURL(url)
|
And this is my version:
String encodedUrl = null;
| ValueBinding linkValueBinding = getValueBinding("link");
| if (linkValueBinding != null) {
| // link from expression
| encodedUrl = linkValueBinding.getValue(context).toString();
| }
| if ((encodedUrl == null) && (link != null)) {
| // plain text links
| encodedUrl = link;
| }
| if (encodedUrl == null) {
| // just get url from context
| String url =
context.getApplication().getViewHandler().getActionURL(context, viewId);
| encodedUrl = context.getExternalContext().encodeActionURL(url);
| }
Clearly I had to do all the extra stuff to add in the 'link' attribute to the
tag.
This change works perfectly for me. There may be a better way to do this and
I'm not fully up-to-speed on the JSF API. I should probably have encoded the
URL and there may be other problems...
Anyway, over to you. Is it possible to add in this functionality? Many thanks.
