[jbosstools-issues] [JBoss JIRA] Commented: (JBIDE-4937) birt - Seam component always null with birt embed

Snjezana Peco commented on JBIDE-4937:
--------------------------------------
- encoding problem : birt servlet outputs its content in binary mode
but you read it in caracter mode.
The JBossBirtServlet always outputs HTML format.
Your UIDocument.java encodes the servlet's output as UTF-8 which is not always
correct.
- p:param parameters and the other tag attributes are not propagated
in the requestDispatcher.include when using embed mode (you would also need to have a
RequestWrapper I think).
p:param parameters are propagated which you can test by adding "<b:param
name="sample" value="test1" />" to testbirtembed.xhtml
Other tags are also propagated, but JBossBirtServlet interprets only __report,
__embeddable and __masterpage.
If you would like this servlet to interpret some other tag, please create a feature
request.
You must now change doPost implementation to call doGet (otherwise
embed mode will not work on jsf postback now that you use requestDispatcher.dispatch mode
;) ).
I can't reproduce this issue. The p:birt tag always calls the doGet method.
Max,
We could render a BIRT report using a Seam component, but that would introduce a
dependency to Seam. The current implementation is a pure JSF implementation.
What do you think about this?
birt - Seam component always null with birt embed
-------------------------------------------------
Key: JBIDE-4937
URL: https://jira.jboss.org/jira/browse/JBIDE-4937
Project: Tools (JBoss Tools)
Issue Type: Bug
Components: birt
Reporter: Gonzalez Adrian
Assignee: Snjezana Peco
Fix For: 3.1.0.M4

UIDocument.java
I'm using a Seam component in birt report (from a scripted datasource).
Seam component is in conversation (or even session scope - same result).
When I try to access a Seam Component from a birt report and when I use embed
mode(designType="embed"), Seam component is always null (I'm accessing seam
component with Component.getInstance("sampleReportList", false);).
When I use designType="run", or frameset everything works fine.
Tthe issue is due to the session that isn't propagated in embed mode.
UIDocument class creates a new URLConnection to call JBossBirtServlet without propagating
session cookie JSESSIONID (or the session id parameter if session is propagated with url
rewriting).
JBossBirtServlet then calls birt engine, but in a new session context.
So the scripted source in birt engine cannot get a reference to any object stored in the
original session.
