Thanks Petemuir for the reply. But I don't see me and my team moving to Seam 1.1.7 for atleast one month as we don't have that much time to test our complete application with latest Seam. I can think of a workaround as to put that variable in session context explicitly and then retrieving it back at the required place. Can we have any other alternative better than this ?
