Getting Application Context from a webservice

p3d3r0s0

Hey, im using the kofax plugin Ascent, and i need to add a property to a node inside DbNodeServiceImpl. That property is stored in my database. But to access tables in the database i was using this

   protected static ApplicationContext ctx = FacesContextUtils.getWebApplicationContext(FacesContext.getCurrentInstance());
‍‍

to get the proper context.
Unfortunatly, i cant get the ApplicationContext that way when i use the plugin, i also tried:

   protected static ApplicationContext ctx = ApplicationContextHelper.getApplicationContext();
   protected static ApplicationContext ctx = new ClassPathXmlApplicationContext("classpath:alfresco/application-context.xml");
   protected static ApplicationContext ctx = new ClassPathXmlApplicationContext("classpath:alfresco/jcr-context.xml");
   protected static ApplicationContext ctx = new ClassPathXmlApplicationContext("classpath*:alfresco/hibernate-context.xml");
‍‍‍‍‍‍

Am i going for the wrong approach?

To anyone with a similar problem, the solution is this:

add a line similar to this to your application-context.xml in the classes directory
<bean id="appContext" class="your.package.and.class.name.in.repository"></bean>

your.package.and.class.name.in.repository = something like "org.MyClass"

create that class making sure it implements "ApplicationContextAware"
make a getter, can be static, and use it to get the applicationContext whenever you need it.

Hope it helps someone.

Hey,
I have a class in repository named AppContext, its in a package named myPacket.
I have only 2 methods inside:

package myPacket;

import javax.faces.context.FacesContext;

import org.springframework.beans.BeansException;
import org.springframework.context.ApplicationContext;
import org.springframework.context.ApplicationContextAware;

public class AppContext implements ApplicationContextAware{
   
   private static ApplicationContext ctx;

   @Override
   public void setApplicationContext(ApplicationContext arg0)
         throws BeansException {

      ctx = arg0;
   }
   
   public static ApplicationContext getApplicationContext(){
      return ctx;
   }
}
‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍

Inside the repository project, in config/alfresco, theres a application-context.xml file. In that file i had the line:
<bean id="appContext" class="myPacket.AppContext"></bean>
in the end, before the </beans>

After having this done, i can access the applicationContext by using the static method AppContext.getApplicationContext();

Im using in another class in the repository like this:
protected static ApplicationContext ctx = AppContext.getApplicationContext();

Hope this helps.

ps: i never use the Set method in appContext. Alfresco/Spring injects/sets the applicationContext for you.
