Thanks Adam, Matthew
I got a lot of what I wanted to do done, but I still need a couple more things.
Is there a way to call a method on an already loaded component?
For example, I have an application.beanFactory component and i wanted
to call the method getBean() within the plugin and append that
component to the request scope. I can manipulate the request scope and
i can even grab the component using
_session.getApplicationData().getData("application.beanFactory") but
it seems i can't actually call any of those methods within the plugin.
Is this even possible?
Thanks.
