Upgrading from Just-ice.jar to Icefaces 3.3.0 GA

Question

Currently the web logic portal application was using Icefaces 1.8.2. Now i am trying to upgrade it to 3.3, but the application code was using com.icesoft.faces.context.BridgeExternalContext getOriginalRequest method to get the HttpServletRequest by using just-ice.jar provided by Icefaces1.8.2. Can any one guide whats the alternate class and Jar that i have to use in Icefaces 3.3.

Below is the code that I am using.

BridgeExternalContext bec = (BridgeExternalContext)ec;

Object originalReq = bec.getOriginalRequest(); 

if( originalReq instanceof HttpServletRequest){ 

 return (HttpServletRequest)originalReq; 
} 

Answer 1

ICEfaces 2.x and later all use the standard JSF Bridge, so BridgeExternalContext no longer is necessary.

HttpServletRequest requestObj = (HttpServletRequest)

FacesContext.getCurrentInstance().getExternalContext().getRequest();

String value = (String) requestObj.getAttribute("property");

Would be how I would retrieve an object from the HttpServletRequest.
