[jboss-user] [JBoss Seam] - Re: Accessing Servlet Response from within Seam component

I ask since I need a component that handles downloading files; this needs to set the mime type, the header and the outpustream.  I'd hate to develop a servlet just for this since I'd really like to use injection and the persistence context as part of this component.

Avoid using the HttpServletResponse directly if you can.  Use the ExternalContext instead.  This should do it:

@In (value="#{facesContext.externalContext}")
private ExternalContext extCtx;
.....
.....
.....
extCtx.setResponseCharacterEncoding("encoding");
