I have a JSF Application and want to use websockets to send messages to the webclient.
On the server side I'm executing some long-running asyn tasks, I perform it using the @Asynchronous annotation
@Asynchronous
public void doLongRunningTasks(){...}
At some point, during the async process, I would like to send a Message to the client using a WebSocket and a PushContext. I know, I can inject the pushContext to a CDI Bean, doing something like
@Named @ViewScoped public class
MsgBackingBean implements Serializable {
@Inject @Push private PushContext pushContext;
Now my problem: how can I access the MsgBackingBean from my async task due to the fact that I dont have a valid FacesContext? (FacesContext.getCurrentInstance() is null). Usually I programmatically instantiate my beans in this way:
FacesContext.getCurrentInstance().getApplication().evaluateExpressionGet(fc, "#{msgBackingBean}", MsgBackingBean.class);
