a problem with servlet url mapping , a complex problem.
Hi Thank you for reading my post. My problem is about using a Chart library which works well in jsf application but it does not works in JSF portlets. I think i find the problem but i do not know the solution. to use this charting library we should add a servlet to web.xml something like : [code] <servlet> <servlet-name>Jenia internal servlet</servlet-name> <servlet-class>org.jenia.faces.util.Servlet</servlet-class> <load-on-startup>2</load-on-startup> </servlet> <servlet-mapping> <servlet-name>Jenia internal servlet</servlet-name> <url-pattern>/jenia4faces/*</url-pattern> </servlet-mapping> [/code] so , when we try to load a chart , it will make the chart image source something like : http://localhost:28080/Adv/jenia4faces/chart/OAReport.jspBarChart3d_id0.png in the above sample , adv is the name of web application which is deployed in a servlet container. and filter applied to make the chart render-able. [b]to use the chart library in jsf portlet , i add the servlet description as i did for web application , so i add[/b] [code] <servlet> <servlet-name>Jenia internal servlet</servlet-name> <servlet-class>org.jenia.faces.util.Servlet</servlet-class> <load-on-startup>2</load-on-startup> </servlet> <servlet-mapping> <servlet-name>Jenia internal servlet</servlet-name> <url-pattern>/jenia4faces/*</url-pattern> </servlet-mapping> [/code] to my portlet web.xml file. when we have portlet , the url to access that portlet (which indeed is a web application) changes for example url for a sample portlet with same web application name will be like http://localhost:28080/pluto/portal/Adv/ as you can see there are some prefix to web application name in the url , but when i use chart component to show same chart , it still look for the chart in url like : http://localhost:28080/Adv/jenia4faces/chart/OAReport.jspBarChart3d_id0.png As you may already sugest , the image will not render because browser is looking in wrong place. now i think if i find some way to map that servlet to correct url pattern it will works. my question is : 1-what will be new servlet url pattern ? 2-is my assumption correct ?
