Question

I created a SessionListener but it doesn’t work because I don’t know how to register it in the faces-config.xml. I tried the following:

SessionListener

public class SessionListener implements HttpSessionListener {

@Override
public void sessionCreated(HttpSessionEvent arg0) {


    HttpServletRequest request = (HttpServletRequest) FacesContext.getCurrentInstance().getExternalContext().getRequest();
    String param = request.getParameter("language");


    IDAdminLanguage idl = (IDAdminLanguage) JSFUtils.resolve("#{languageBean}");

    if (param != null && param.length() > 0) {
        idl.setLanguage(param);
    } else {
        idl.setLanguage("de");
    }   
}

@Override
public void sessionDestroyed(HttpSessionEvent arg0) { }

}

faces-config

<listener>
   <listener-class>ch.idadmin.util.SessionListener</listener-class>
</listener>

Answer 1

Yuu need to add that configuration in web.xml (and not in faces-config.xml)

<web-app ...>
        <listener>
        <listener-class>ch.idadmin.util.SessionListener</listener-class>
    </listener>
</web-app>
