As an aside, this need is related to generating direct action URLs without a context or request (i.e. within a background thread.) Is it worthwhile to anyone beside me to have a directActionURLForActionNamed(...) method that doesn't depend on (ERX)WOContext? I keep running into this with threaded email generation, user-agent headers in a crawler, etc. When I get some time I may jump on it.

It should be easy to assemble:
"http://"; + WOHost property + WOCGIAdaptorUrl property + WOApplicationName property + ".woa/" + application.directActionRequestHandlerKey() + "/" + actionName
this has limitations ... if you have multiple incoming domains, you won't know at the time you generate this which domain you should hand back for a given user whereas the context would have the domain name they used to come into the site. this may or may not be a problem for you.


If he does not have a context or request, falling back to these defaults is all he can do. Or am I missing something?
