unable to get FacesContext when session starts with CR3

[liudan2005]

It worked before until I updated to seam 1.0 cr3 and jboss 4.0.4ga.

I have a session scoped component annotated with @Startup. in my @Create method, I try to retrieve FacesContext in order to get HTTP request. But I get null value.

This worked before i've upgraed to CR3.

Did your version of MyFaces also change. (ie. is it MyFaces 1.1.1 or MyFaces 1.1.3)

I don't believe I changed anything here (though it is possible).

Note that the session startup stuff is called from a servlet context listener, so we can't really be sure that there is a FacesContext, I suppose....

yes, I've also upgraded myfaces as well.

What I need is to check user's cookies when session is created. that's why I need to get http request object. Is there any other way to do this, or anyway to get around?

In previous version(before I upgrade), this worked in IE but not firefox. Now it stopped working in both IE and firefox. I do need a way around.
