[jbossseam-issues] [JBoss JIRA] Commented: (JBSEAM-3273) @Startup + @Create on session-scoped bean broken in Seam 2.1

[Przemyslaw Jaskierski (JIRA)]

    [ https://jira.jboss.org/jira/browse/JBSEAM-3273?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=12427057#action_12427057 ] 

Przemyslaw Jaskierski commented on JBSEAM-3273:
-----------------------------------------------

Thinking more of this. I remember that accessing e.g. servlet mapped as non *.xhtml was resulting in FacesContext.getCurrentInstance() == null. So having FacesContext.getCurrentInstance() != null might be a side-effect of accessing JSF-filter-attached *.xhtml resource (although very useful and nice working side effect).

I see that we can redefine this problem to make at least this possible:

1. Having ServletContexts.getInstance().getRequest() available in @Create method of Session-scoped bean.

Having all stuff from point 2. of my comment above available would be extremely valuable, though.

> In 1.x, 2.x and Seam 2.1 build from ~march 2008 it was possible to access, for example, cookies info or other http request attributes at session creation time. It was extremely useful to fetch f.e. user-specific data from database to create custom view etc, (described f.e. here http://www.jboss.com/index.html?module=bb&op=viewtopic&p=3963032). It is not working anymore. Both FacesContext.getCurrentInstance() and ServletContexts.getInstance().getRequest() now return null within @Create method.
