Call appModule function inside a managed bean?

Question

How can I call an Application Module public function from a managed bean?

Answer 1

FacesContext ctx = FacesContext.getCurrentInstance();
ectx = ctx.getExternalContext();
//Ask the container who the user logged in as
_userName = ectx.getRemoteUser();
// 1. Access the FacesContext
FacesContext fc = FacesContext.getCurrentInstance();
// 2. Create value binding for the #{data} EL expression
ValueBinding vb = fc.getApplication().createValueBinding("#{data}");
// 3. Evaluate the value binding, casting the result to BindingContext
BindingContext bc = (BindingContext)vb.getValue(fc);
// 4. Find the data control by name from the binding context, here you must change to name of your AppModule name
DCDataControl dc = bc.findDataControl("AppModuleDataControl");
// 5. Access the application module data provider
ApplicationModule am = (ApplicationModule)dc.getDataProvider();
// 6. Cast the ApplicationModule to its client interface
appModule = (AppModuleImpl)am;
// 7. Call a method on the client interface
appModule.myMetod();
