    HTML anchor id problem with redirect component

    cosmo

      Hello everybody,
      I am trying to make sort of a forum with Seam but I am having a problem with the HTML anchor part of the URL, which is being removed when the redirect component intercepts the call if the user is not logged in.


      For instance:
      If I am not logged in and I request the following URL: localhost:8080/viewTopic.seam?topicId=1#comment20
      the org.jboss.seam.security.notLoggedIn event is being raised and the URL is being catched
      by the redirect component. Then I am redirected to localhost:8080/login.seam which is the expected behaviour. However, after a successful login the page which I am redirected to is
      localhost:8080/viewTopic.seam?topicId=1, removing the #comment20 part.


      By what I've seen in the org.jboss.seam.faces.Redirect source code, the problem is that captureCurrentView method is not doing anything to store it. Moreover, the FacesManager.instance().redirect method doesn't expect it either, or I don't see any memory structure for storing it.


      So my questions are:


      Did I do anything wrong and this isn't supposed to happen?
      If not, which are the possible ways to overcome this issue?


      Thanks in advance,



      JBoss AS 4.2 GA / Seam 2.0.2 SP1 but I checked the 2.2.0 source and I didn't see any relevant change.
