[shale] mailreader question

[Wendy Smoak]

This is probably a JSF question, but I'm already here. :)

MailReader's BaseViewController has:

    protected Object getBean(String name) {
        FacesContext context = getFacesContext();
        return context.getApplication().getVariableResolver().
          resolveVariable(context, name);
    }

    protected FacesContext getFacesContext() {
        return FacesContext.getCurrentInstance();
    }

Unwinding everything, I get:

FacesContext.getCurrentInstance().getApplication()
    .getVariableResolver()
    .resolveVariable(FacesContext.getCurrentInstance(), name);

All that, just to find my session scoped managed bean?  Or am I making
it way more complicated than it needs to be?  I *really* miss
'session.getAttribute()' right about now...
