A couple solutions come to mind: 1) Use event-args with M2 EL syntax:
http://trac.mach-ii.com/machii/wiki/ConfigFileExplained#event-arg <event-arg name="userId" value="${event.userComment.userId:0}"/> 2) Use <call-method> http://trac.mach-ii.com/machii/wiki/MachII1.8CallMethodCommand <subroutine name="reportSnip"> <call-method bean="somethingService" method="readBySomethingIdAndCompanyId" args="${event.somethingId},${event.companyId}" resultArg="something"/> <call-method bean="adminService" method="readAdmin" args="${event.something.ownerAdminId},${event.something.companyId}" resultArg="admin"/> <call-method bean="locationService" method="readLocation" args="${event.something.locationId}" resultArg="location"/> <view-page name="snip_report" contentArg="layout.snip_report"/> </subroutine> 3) Use a filter. I've been generic filters in the pass to work as data mappers. Pulling a piece of data from complex nested objects into even args. Although, my suggestion with 1) using event arg with EL expressions works better these days. .pjf Brian H. said the following on 04/18/2011 11:54 PM: > Hey Guys. > > It's common for events such as "viewUser" to have a listener notify > like: > > <notify listener="UserListener" method="getUser" resultArg="User"/> > > Where the listener expects a "userId" in the event.
