[ Tobago ] Help Regarding invoking Managed Bean from dos/unix shell

[Madan Narra]

Hi All,

I have a doubt which may / may not be related to Tobago , but its sure that
its related to JSF.

I have a cron job running on UNIX platform , which is scheduled to perform a
specific operation.

Previously the job calls a URL with a parameter passed to the Servlet ,
something like this

 http://localhost:8080/myApp/helloWorld?command=xxxyyy; .

Based upon the request parameter command the code is executed in the
servlet.

Now i need to perform the same action but with the managed beans as now we
were using JSF (Tobago)

I am not able to guess how to achieve this...

* Have to implement the logic in Managed Beans and not in Servlet's.

Any suggestions ... ?

You may extend the NonFacesRequestServlet like in the 
tobago-example-nonfacesrequest.

Hi Udo,

Thnx for the quick  response.

I have another doubt to get clarified .

In the NonFacesRequest Example, the  FishServlet  extends
NonFacesRequestServlet.
This class is specified in web.xml.

Can the same servlet be used as a Managed bean (registered in
faces-config.xml) ie if it can be referred in a Tobago Page and invoke those
methods that are attached to some of the components in that page ?

In the FishServlet is a reference to the managed bean fishPond.
It can be used after:

   FishPond fishPond = (FishPond) 
VariableResolverUtil.resolveVariable(facesContext, fishPond);

Udo

By the way, the NonFacesRequestServlet is a way to provide external 
links with parameters to a JSF application. Internal command should be 
processed with the JSF methods (outcome/navigation-hander/...)
