I have a managed bean (SessionScope as follow)
#ManagedBean(name="login")
#SessionScoped
public class Login implements Serializable {
private String userSession;
public Login(){
}
}
In this managedbean, somewhere in the login function, i store the email as a session.
I have another managed bean called ChangePassword (ViewScoped). I need to access the value of the email which is stored in the userSession.
The reason of doing so is that i need to find out the current userSession(email) before i can complete the change password function. (Need change password for that specific email)
How do i do so? New to JSF, appreciate any help!
Just inject the one bean as a managed property of the other bean.
#ManagedBean
#ViewScoped
public class ChangePassword {
#ManagedProperty("#{login}")
private Login login; // +setter (no getter!)
public void submit() {
// ... (the login bean is available here)
}
// ...
}

Communication in JSF 2.0 - Injecting managed beans in each other
In JSF2, I usually use a method like this:
public static Object getSessionObject(String objName) {
FacesContext ctx = FacesContext.getCurrentInstance();
ExternalContext extCtx = ctx.getExternalContext();
Map<String, Object> sessionMap = extCtx.getSessionMap();
return sessionMap.get(objName);
}
The input parameter is the name of your bean.
if your session scoped bean is like this :
#ManagedBean(name="login")
#SessionScoped
public class Login implements Serializable {
private String userSession;
public Login(){
}
}
you can access the values of this bean like :
#ManagedBean(name="changePassword")
#ViewScoped
public class ChangePassword implements Serializable {
#ManagedProperty(value="#{login.userSession}")
private String userSession;
public ChangePassword (){
}
}
public static Object getSessionObj(String id) {
return FacesContext.getCurrentInstance().getExternalContext().getSessionMap().get(id);
}
public static void setSessionObj(String id,Object obj){
FacesContext.getCurrentInstance().getExternalContext().getSessionMap().put(id, obj);
}
Add them in your managed bean :

I have this SessionScoped bean:
#ManagedBean
#SessionScoped
public class LoginBean implements Serializable {
/**
* Creates a new instance of LoginBean
*/
public LoginBean() {
this.usuario = new Usuario();
}
private Usuario usuario;
//getter & setter
}
The Usuario class:
public class Usuario {
public Usuario() {
}
private String password;
private String nombre;
private int idPlanta;
private int nivel;
private String idUsuario;
//getters & setters
}
And I want to get the value of the property idPlanta from the SessionScoped bean (LoginBean) here (in the constructor) see the comments:
#ManagedBean
#ViewScoped
public class PrincipalBean implements Serializable {
public PrincipalBean() {
System.out.println(this.login.getUsuario().getIdPlanta());
//AT THIS POINT THE VALUE OF idPlanta IS 0 but in the session I have 1...
//Method that uses the idPlanta value as a parameter
}
#ManagedProperty(value = "#{loginBean}")
private LoginBean login;
public LoginBean getLogin() {
return login;
}
public void setLogin(LoginBean login) {
this.login = login;
}
}
But when I show the value in the view it shows the value that really is in the Session idPlanta = 1. I dont understand why I cant get the value of that property in the constructor of that ViewScoped bean (PrincipalBean). I show the value in the view here(I know I can get it directly fron the LoginBean but this is just to show that the property login in PrincipalBean has the Session value):
<h:outputText class="titulo" value="Bienvenido(a) #{principalBean.login.usuario.nombre} Planta #{principalBean.login.usuario.idPlanta}" />
The value of idPlanta in PrincipalBean is very important because I use it as a method parameter to show more info when the view is showed.
Please help me. I still learning JSF.
You need to be using these values after the bean has been constructed. When your constructor is called, your bean has net yet been initialzed - therefore the injections have not yet happend. Using the #PostConstruct method you will be able to access the desired values from the injected objects.
For example :
#ManagedBean
#ViewScoped
public class PrincipalBean implements Serializable {
public PrincipalBean() {
}
#PostConstruct
public init() {
System.out.println(this.login.getUsuario().getIdPlanta());
//AT THIS POINT THE VALUE OF idPlanta IS 0 but in the session I have 1...
//Method that uses the idPlanta value as a parameter
}
#ManagedProperty(value = "#{loginBean}")
private LoginBean login;
public LoginBean getLogin() {
return login;
}
public void setLogin(LoginBean login) {
this.login = login;
}
}

Why use #PostConstruct?
Injecting Managed Beans In JSF 2.0
JSF injection with managed property, good pattern?
I'm trying to inject a bean in a stateless EJB. But i would like that bean be different when EJB is called from a ManagedBean or from a EJB Timer.
Here is my EJB in which i inject a User bean:
MyEjb.java
#Stateless
class MyEjb{
#Inject
#CurrentContext
private User user;
public void foo(){
System.out.println(user);
}
}
Here is a EJB Timer that use the EJB:
TimerTest.java
#Singleton
#Startup
class TimerTest {
#EJB
private MyEjb myEjb;
#Timeout
public void doIt(Timer timer) {
myEjb.foo();
}
#Produces
#CurrentContext
public User produceCurrentUserInEjbTimer(){
return new User("system");
}
}
Finally, the ManagedBean using MyEjb :
MyManagedBean.java
#ManagedBean
#SessionScoped
class MyManagedBean {
#EJB
private MyEjb myEjb;
public void bar() {
myEjb.foo();
}
#Produces
#CurrentContext
#RequestScoped
public User produceCurrentUserInManagedBean(){
return new User(FacesContext.getCurrentInstance().getExternalContext().getRemoteUser());
}
}
When the timeout is reach, i would like that foo method of MyEbj use the system User created by the method produceCurrentUserInEjbTimer.
And when the bar method of the ManagedBean is invoked, i would like that foo method of MyEbj use the remote User of the FaceContext (created by the method produceCurrentUserInManagedBean).
I would rather have only one producer that checks if FacesContext.getCurrentInstance() != null then call the apropriate code:
public User produceCurrentUser(){
if(FacesContext.getCurrentInstance() != null){
return new User(FacesContext.getCurrentInstance().getExternalContext().getRemoteUser());
}
else{
return new User("system");
}
}
You can also inject you User directly on the timer or the ManagedBean and then use InjectionPoint object to know to which class your User is injected:
public User produceCurrentUser(InjectionPoint injectionPoint){
System.out.println(injectionPoint.getBean());
}
You should also use #Named and #javax.enterprise.context.SessionScoped as you have CDI on your application instead of #ManagedBean.
UPDATE
I'm not sure that there is a direct method to get the context of the injection, it wil be possible throw CDI extension but I've never try it.
What about obtaining a contextual instance by programmatic lookup:
#Stateless
class MyEjb{
#Inject #Any Instance<User> userSource;
public void foo(String context) // you should define contexts your self as jms, jsf ...
{
// Every expected context will have a qualifier
Annotation qualifier = context.equals("jsf") ?
new JSFQualifier() : new JMSQualifier();
User p = userSource.select(qualifier).get();
System.out.println(user);
}
}
This was you can inject your EJB and pass the context param to foo:
#Named
#SessionScoped
class MyManagedBean {
#EJB
private MyEjb myEjb;
public void bar() {
myEjb.foo("jsf");
}
}
I have a little javaee webproject and i need bean injection in it. i have a tomee server with cdi enabled. Here is a little test case.
Here is my #SessionScoped User object
import javax.enterprise.context.SessionScoped;
import java.io.Serializable;
#SessionScoped
public class User implements Serializable {
String userName;
public User () {}
public User (String userName) { this.userName = userName; }
public String getUserName() { return userName; }
public void setUserName(String userName) { this.userName = userName; }
}
and here are my two nearly identical beans:
#Named
#RequestScoped
public class BeanOne {
private String message;
#Inject User user;
#PostConstruct
public void init() { user = new User("TestName"); }
public String getMessage() { return user.getUserName(); }
}
In this bean i create a new user. the method getMessage returns the correct user name. I thought the user should still exist in the second bean because its #SessionScoped. Here is my second bean.
#Named
#RequestScoped
public class BeanTwo {
private String message;
#Inject User user;
public String getMessage() { return user.getUserName(); }
}
But in this bean the user.getUserName() returns null. How am i supposed to inject a #SessionScoped bean?
This happens because you have manually initialized user object in BeanOne init method. The purpose of dependency injection is to let some container create instances of objects for you, so you should never initialize objects manually. So just set a name for this user and it will be visible during session for all other beans.
#PostConstruct
public void init() { user.setUserName("TestName"); }
I searched similar questions but I'm a bit confused. I have a login page, so LoginBean also which is;
#ManagedBean(name = "loginBean")
#SessionScoped
public class LoginBean implements Serializable {
private String password="";
private String image="";
#ManagedProperty(value = "#{loginBeanIdentityNr}")
private String identityNr="";
...
after success, navigates to orderlist page, so I have also OrderBean.
#ManagedBean(name = "OrderBean")
#SessionScoped
public class OrderBean {
List<Ordery> sdList;
public List<Order> getSdList() {
try {
String identityNr ="";
ELContext elContext = FacesContext.getCurrentInstance().getELContext();
LoginBean lBean = (LoginBean) FacesContext.getCurrentInstance().getApplication().getELResolver().getValue(elContext, null, "loginBean");
identityNr =lBean.getIdentityNr();
sdList = DatabaseUtil.getOrderByIdentityNr(identityNr);
...
}
I don't need the whole LoginBean, just ManagedProperty "loginBeanIdentityNr". But this code below doesn't work (of course);
identityNr = (String) FacesContext.getCurrentInstance()
.getApplication().getELResolver()
.getValue(elContext, null, "loginBeanIdentityNr");
this time it returns null to me.
I think if I need whole bean property, I can inject these beans, right? So, do you have any suggestions for this approach? can<f:attribute> be used?
The #ManagedProperty declares the location where JSF should set the property, not where JSF should "export" the property. You need to just inject the LoginBean as property of OrderBean.
public class OrderBean {
#ManagedProperty(value="#{loginBean}")
private LoginBean loginBean; // +setter
// ...
}
This way you can access it in the OrderBean by just
loginBean.getIdentityNr();
Alternatively, if you make your OrderBean request or view scoped, then you can also set only the identityNr property.
public class OrderBean {
#ManagedProperty(value="#{loginBean.identityNr}")
private String identityNr; // +setter
// ...
}
Unrelated to the concrete problem: initializing String properties with an empty string is a poor practice.
I would like to have a session scoped JSF bean with one property that is request (page) scoped. Is it possible at all?
No, that's not possible. Managed property injection only happens during creation of the bean. However, when a session scoped bean is been created there is not necessarily a request present and the injected request scoped bean would be invalid in subsequent requests in the remnant of the session.
Do it the other way round. E.g.
#ManagedBean
#SessionScoped
public class UserManager {
private User current;
// ...
}
and
#ManagedBean
#RequestScoped
public class Login {
private String username;
private String password;
#ManagedProperty(value="#{userManager}")
private UserManager userManager;
#EJB
private UserService userService;
public String submit() {
User user = userService.find(username, password);
if (user != null) {
userManager.setCurrent(user);
return "home?faces-redirect=true";
} else {
addErrorMessage("Unknown login, please try again");
return null;
}
}
// ...
}
