David, I have a solution for this based on subclassing
FaceletsViewHandler; the trick is to map the view ID to a view, load the
view to create the component tree, but retain the view ID. It's a little
tricky -- and can't be done in a way that's portable, so if you're not
using Facelets my solution wont work for you. But if you are using
Facelets, and would like the details, let me know.

I don't have control over that option with my hosting provider. I just have
JSF (MyFaces) to work with to make
everything dynamic. I tried creating the new UIViewRoot with the
/hostname/whatever path then resetting it back to
/whatever before returning it with CreateViewRoot but that didn't work. It
doesn't find the file now so at least I know
ViewHandler.createView() isn't the correct place for my logic. *shrug*

Why not use an apache webserver with its url-rewriting capabilities?

Ronald,
I want to virtual host so the path /hello maps internally to /hostname/hello.
I'm trying to do some sort of internal
redirect WITHOUT having to put dummy/stub files in the main /WEBAPP folder
which would then include the relevant virtual
host file(s). So, this kind of cancels out Facelets or Shale/Clay for that
very purpose. I've tried making another
ViewHandler.createView(context, "hostname" + viewId) but that ALSO changes the
submitted path to /hostname/whatever.jsf
instead of retaining it as /whatever.jsf.
Now, I'm thinking I can use the servletContextListener to put my own
ExternalContext in there so when the JSP calls
ExternalContext.dispatch(), I can override that method to invoke
"/localhost/filename" since I won't have a generic
"/filename" setup.
I'm open to new ideas and suggestions. I wonder sometimes why I go for the
complicated stuff when I program application
services. *sigh*
Regards,
David

Hi David,
why you want to override - define your own in the web.xml !
<listener>
<listener-class>myServletContextListener</listener-class>
</listener>
You have to implement the 'javax.servlet.ServletContextListener' -
Interface with the following two methods :
public void contextInitialized(ServletContextEvent e);
public void contextDestroyed(ServletContextEvent e);
The same if want to listen for sessions. You have to additionally
implement the 'javax.servlet.http.HttpSessionListener'-Interface with
public void sessionCreated(HttpSessionEvent e);
public void sessionDestroyed(HttpSessionEvent e);
regards
Ronald

In the MyFaces taglib, it has the listener declaration (which works in my
Tomcat 5.0.28 :
<listener>
<listener-class>org.apache.myfaces.webapp.StartupServletContextListener</listener-class>
</listener>
Is there any way to override this other than:
a) Edit the taglib file to change it.
b) make my own
/WEB-INF/classes/org/apache/myfaces/webapp/StartupServletContextListener.java
file?
Regards,
David
