[jboss-user] [JBoss Portal] - Re: access to outer request/session from within portlet

[Antoine_h]

hello,

this get the dispatched request, which seem not be usefull in my case (retrieve the session for setting a whole portal session parameter, that is the locale for all the portlet).

I did this, through the PortletRequest, PortletInvocation and AbstractInvocationContext class.

Not sure it is full correct, but it works. If someone has an comment on this ? 
may be another way to get the http session ?


  | private static final Logger log = Logger
  | 			.getLogger(MyClass.class);
  | 
  | 	public static final HttpServletRequest getOuterRequest(
  | 			PortletRequest request) {
  | 		PortletInvocation portletInvocation = (PortletInvocation) request
  | 				.getAttribute(ContextDispatcherInterceptor.REQ_ATT_COMPONENT_INVOCATION);
  | 		// return portletInvocation.getDispatchedRequest();
  | 
  | 		// Get the context of the invocation
  | 		InvocationContext invocationContext = portletInvocation.getContext();
  | 
  | 		// Try to cast the context of invocation to an AbstractInvocationContext
  | 		AbstractInvocationContext abstractInvCtxt = null;
  | 		if (invocationContext != null) {
  | 			if (invocationContext instanceof AbstractInvocationContext) {
  | 				abstractInvCtxt = (AbstractInvocationContext) invocationContext;
  | 			} else {
  | 				log
  | 						.warn("The InvocationContext is not of instance of AbstractInvocationContext !");
  | 				log.warn("The InvocationContext is : " + invocationContext
  | 						+ " // " + invocationContext.getClass().getName()
  | 						+ " // " + invocationContext.toString());
  | 			}
  | 
  | 		} else {
  | 			log.warn("The invocationContext is null !");
  | 		}
  | 		HttpServletRequest httpServletRequest = null;
  | 		if (abstractInvCtxt != null) {
  | 			// The AbstractInvocationContext exists : try to retrieve the client
  | 			// httpServletRequest.
  | 			httpServletRequest = abstractInvCtxt.getClientRequest();
  | 			if (httpServletRequest == null) {
  | 				log.warn("The HttpServletRequest is null !");
  | 			}
  | 		} else {
  | 			log.warn("The AbstractInvocationContext is null !");
  | 		}
  | 		return httpServletRequest;
  | 	}
