This is on my bean, I am trying to call the link from this bean method.

 public void downloadXML() throws YDSException, FileNotFoundException, IOException {
             Link = "http://localhost:8080/uberConsole/download?file=DEMODATA.xml";

This is on my primeface xhtml button.

  <p:button href="#{dbctoxmlProcessView.downloadXML()}" disabled="#{dbctoxmlProcessView.disable}"
  value="Download XML File" id="btnGenXML" 
                        icon="fa fa-fw fa-download" title="Download Generated XML"
 styleClass="ui-priority-primary"/>
