Version 1

    hi there,

    I've posted lately this article about configuring RichFaces 4.1 CDI/Topic context push with non-maven based projects, this article is for applying the new changes for RF 4.2 push which is :

     

    1-Topic context is no longer needed to initialize a CDI push topic.

    2-org.richfaces.push.jms.disable context parameter is no longer needed to disable JMS push since it is disabled by default.

    3-atmoshpere library updated (PFA).

     

    kindly add this to your project :

    1-in your web.xml

     

     <context-param>
        <param-name>org.atmosphere.useBlocking</param-name>
        <param-value>true</param-value>
     </context-param>

     

     

    2-find the attached file for atmosphere libraries, extract it and copy these files to your WEB-INF/lib directory :

     

    3-PushBean java code :


     

    @Named
    @SessionScoped
    public class PushBean implements Serializable {
              private static final long serialVersionUID = 1L; 
              private static final String CDI_PUSH_TOPIC = "pushCdi";
              private String userIdentifier;
              private String message; 
     
              @Inject
              @Push(topic=CDI_PUSH_TOPIC, subtopic="#{pushBean.userIdentifier}")//now Topic getting initialized with this.
              private Event<String> pushEvent;
     
              @Inject
              public void init() {
     
                             if(userIdentifier == null) {
                                            userIdentifier = UUID.randomUUID().toString().replace("-", ""); 
                             } 
              }
     
              public void sendMessage() throws MessageException {
     
                        pushEvent.fire(message);
              }
     
     
              public String getUserIdentifier() {
                        return userIdentifier;
              } 
     
     
              public String getMessage() {
                        return message;
              }
     
     
              public void setMessage(String message) {
                        this.message = message;
              } 
    }

     

     

    xthml files has no changes they are same as before.

     

    4-producer.xhtml source code:

    <h:form id="prodForm">                              

         <h:panelGrid>                                        

          <h:outputText id="uid" value="uid: #{pushBean.userIdentifier}" />                                        

          <h:inputText id="msg" value="#{pushBean.message}" />                                        

          <a4j:commandButton id="sendMsg"                                                                                   

                             execute="@form"                                                                                   

                             value="send"                                                                                   

                             action="#{pushBean.sendMessage}"                                                                                   

                             oncomplete="#{rich:element('msg')}.value=''"/>                               

         </h:panelGrid>                    

    </h:form>

     

     

     

    important:use uid as a parameter to invoke consumer.xhtml page, ex :http://localhost:8080/rf4/faces/consumer.xhtml?uid=c59d249427544df286782765379c4647

    this will ensure that each user has his own topic.

     

    5-consumer.xhtml code:

     

    <h:form id="conForm">                    

         <rich:panel style="width:150px" header="messages">                               

         <a4j:push id="consumer"                                                    

                   address="#{param['uid']}@pushCdi"                                                    

                   onerror="alert(event.rf.data)"                                                    

                   ondataavailable="jQuery('<li />').prependTo('#messages').text(event.rf.data)"/>                              

         <ul id="messages"/>                    

         </rich:panel>          

    </h:form>

     

    try it out .
