debug.seam and iText-PDF without redirects?

krausest Dec 24, 2007 6:37 AM

I don't like being redirected in both cases. Maybe there's a simple workaround so I'm looking for your help.

When debug is enabled in components.xml and an exception occurs I'm redirected to debug.seam. The URL I originally entered isn't reachable via the back button which is distracting. Any way to show the debug information for the original URL?

The seam-iText-PDF generation also performs a redirect. Is there a way to let seam return the pdf directly for the request without a redirect? I could hit the reload button and directly see changes in the template then.

Thanks,
Stefan

In answer to both questions, no, but both are issues we are aware of and have some ideas to improve on (I'm talking sometime in the future for this though).

iText no longer does a redirect. This is in CVS now and will be a part of 2.0.1.

how about allow to specify Content-Disposition as an attachement rather than hardcoded inline?

DocumentStoreServlet.java
...
response.setHeader("Content-Disposition",
"inline; filename=\"" + documentData.getFileName() + "\"");

...

This is in CVS and will also be in 2.0.1.

<p:document disposition="attachment" ... />
