Re: Accessing a session-scoped backingbean

[Don Tam]

Hi Bobby,

use valuebindings.
       FacesContext context = FacesContext.getCurrentInstance();
       Application app = context.getApplication();
       ValueBinding vb = 
app.createValueBinding("#{ApplicationVariablesBean}");
       ApplicationVariablesBean avb = (ApplicationVariablesBean) 
vb.getValue(context);

Hey guys,

I would like to access a session scoped backingbean ("user") from an 
actionListener... I'm currently doing something along the lines of:

FacesContext context = FacesContext.getCurrentInstance();
HttpServletRequest request = 
(HttpServletRequest)context.getExternalContext().getRequest();
HttpSession session = request.getSession();
UserBean user = (UserBean)session.getAttribute("user");

Is there a better way?

Thanks,

Bobby Rosenberger
