Does NavigationHandler.handleNavigation() clear the flash?
- by kgrad
I am using JSF2.0 Mojarra 2.0.2.
I have a method that logs out a user and puts a logout message in the flash, forwards to the login page (which has a div that prints out the flash). However, when I use navigationHandlers handleNavigation method for some reason the flash is not being displayed. I have a similar method that forwards a user to the login page if he/she isn't logged in.
If I handle the navigation through an h:link and just call the logout method directly, the flash is displayed as normal, but if I use the handleNavigation() method, the flash is cleared for some reason.
The code in question is:
public void performLogout()
{
getFacesContext().getExternalContext().invalidateSession();
setCurrentUser(null);
getFlash().put("notice", "Successfully logged out.");
super.getFacesContext().getApplication().getNavigationHandler()
.handleNavigation(getFacesContext(), null, "login");
}
Is there some way I can keep the flash when navigating like this?
thanks.
