Hi!does anybody know, am I right here:
<%
<%!
/** this function converts an array of cookies into a hashtable */
Hashtable cookieTable(Cookie[] cookies) {
Hashtable cookieTable = new Hashtable();
if (cookies != null) {
for (int i=0; i < cookies.length; i++)
cookieTable.put(cookies[i].getName(), cookies[i].getValue());
}
return cookieTable;
}
%>
<%!
String isAdmin(HttpServletRequest request)
{
String name = new String();
Boolean isAdmin = new Boolean(false);
Hashtable cookies = cookieTable(request.getCookies());
if (cookies.containsKey("alfUser"))
{
name = (String)cookies.get("alfUser");
if (name.indexOf("@")==-1)
{
isAdmin = true;
}
}
return isAdmin;
}
%>
[…]
<a:booleanEvaluator value="<%isAdmin(request).toString()%>" id="evaluator">
<h:outputText value="sometext" />
</a:booleanEvaluator>
[…]
this output text is not rendered as booleanEvaluator gets incorrect value! Java code itself is tested and is correct, but I'm suspicious about request parameter- maybe there are multiple requests and when booleanEvaluator is rendered, that request doesn't have specific cookie I'm looking for?if I just put <%=isAdmin(request).toString%>
elsewhere, it gets correct value and if I'm logged in as admin, it shows correct boolean value!
