ICEsoft.org Forums: ICEfaces, ICEmobile, ICEpdf

I noticed in the SEAM - Icefaces example the Seam Redirect Filter has been commented out in the web.xml file. Are there problems using this with Icefaces?

Hi Benj,

The Seam redirect filter is commented out because it doesn't really apply when using ICEfaces. ICEfaces doesn't rely on the same mechanism to redirect the browser as what is expected/required by the redirect filter. Code that preserves the Seam conversational state is executed by introspection in the ICEfaces framework. The ICEfaces framework uses javascript to issue
redirects, and the Seam redirection filter isn't invoked anyway.

Thanks,
Philip
