How to get portlet request in jsf2 portlet

[Anonym, geändert vor 12 Jahren.]

Hi

Can any one please explain me how to get portlet request in jsf2 portlet.
My Jsf portlet has PortletFaces Bridge and mojarra jars.
Portlet request class is only found on portlet jars(porlet 2.0 for example which i have not used in my project).
But to match the jsf lifecycle with portlet life cycle we are using some sort of bridge(here iam using PortletFaces Bridge) In this case there is no necessity of having portlet 2.0 jars inside the project. If this is the case how to get portlet request.

Please correct me if iam wrong in asking the question.

The overall concept that i have understood is to use any frame work in portlet is we need a bridge that matches with that lifecycle of framework.

Thanks
Phani

FacesContext facesContext = FacesContext.getCurrentInstance();
PortletRequest portletRequest = (PortletRequest) facesContext.getExternalContext().getRequest();

Hi Neil

Thanks for the reply
My doubt is like PortletRequest class is present in portlet 2.0 jar

can i use jars like

jsf2 jars+portletfaces2 jar+portlet2.0jars

In one portlet project?

I have tried keeping this combination of jars in one portlet project

while deploying iam getting these error it is not deployed.

The portlet.jar depenency is provided by Liferay in the Servlet Container (i.e. Tomcat) or application server (i.e. GlassFish) global classpath. For Tomcat, it's found in tomcat/lib/ext/portlet.jar

So that's probably why you're getting the exception. So if you need to access objects like PortletRequest then portlet.jar must be a compile-time dependency, but must not be included in your portlet WAR/WEB-INF/lib directory.

With Maven, this can be accomplished with scope=provided, such as the following dependency in pom.xml:

<dependency>
<groupid>javax.portlet</groupid>
<artifactid>portlet-api</artifactid>
<scope>provided</scope>
</dependency>
