You could implement a phase listener to make it more "JSF enabled" (in a phase listener you have access to the FacesContext). But a filter can work yes.I think I was looking for it exacly. Thanks. I will try it. Filter isn't the best because it would check on every page if getRequestedURI() contains "loginform.jsf" - a little waste of time.You need not use either Filter or a PhaseListener ...
There is much simpler solution to this problem.
You can use a <f:event> with preRenderView event type, and invoke a sessionbean listener, which contains the code to navigate to the loginpage.
the code will be
<f:metadata>
<f:event type="preRenderView" listener="#{login_bean.verifyAccessOut}"/>
</f:metadata>
and inside the beanListener:
public void verifyAccessOut() {
ExternalContext context2 = FacesContext.getCurrentInstance().getExternalContext();
if(logstatus==false)
try {
message="Unauthorized Access: Please Login First";
style="color:red;text-decoration:blink";
context2.redirect("login.xhtml");
} catch (IOException ex) {
Logger.getLogger(homebean.class.getName()).log(Level.SEVERE, null, ex);
}
