FlexibleUI - UICommands with Path KM and User KM from the context.

Question

I need to write one new Java Portal Class, for new KM Command. This command should do the following action:
- get context information of KMC (specifically portal user and KM path)
- call URL with this data. (Example: http://domain:port/service?userkm=valueuserkm&pathkm=valuepathkm )
I have modify example of FlexibleUI - UICommands, and create a new class that call a URL, but can't find the class and method for get context and catch the user and path of KM user.
this is the code for the class of UICommands:
package com.sap.example.flexible.ui.command;
import java.util.List;
import com.sapportals.wcm.WcmException;
import com.sapportals.wcm.rendering.base.IRenderingEvent;
import com.sapportals.wcm.rendering.base.IScreenflowData;
import com.sapportals.wcm.rendering.uicommand.AbstractCommand;
import com.sapportals.wcm.rendering.uicommand.ICommand;
import com.sapportals.wcm.rendering.uicommand.LinkAttributes;
import com.sapportals.wcm.repository.IResourceContext;
import com.sapportals.wcm.repository.IResource;

Hi,
To get the KM Path:
String path = getResource().getRID().getPath();
To get the present User:
IPortalComponentRequest pcr =
                (IPortalComponentRequest) getProxy().getDynamicPage().getPageContext().getRequest();
pcr.getUser();
To create URL call with datas when UICommand is clicked. You should modify your getLinkAttributes method.
Check this for an example:
