StartupBeans

Hi,

Ultimately I'm creating my navigation menu on facelet template and I need to populate the context root dynamically.

With jsp I can do something along the lines of <% context.getcontextpath %>, but facelet can't do this (I think).

I have a application scope bean that contains most system property, using Optimus @Controller(name = "DefaultStartUpBean", scope = Scope.APPLICATION, startup = true). Problem is, because this class is initialised at deployment, there is no FacesContext so I can't access the ServletContext to get the context path.

Any thoughts on how I should approach this?

With facelets this should work;

Code: Select all

#{request.contextPath}
