Portlet Factory, Version 6.1.2
Utilizing the WebAppAccess object
An instance of the WebAppAccess class, usually named webAppAccess, is your interface into the structure of the web application generated from the model object in one way or another. In general terms the webAppAccess object allows you to process user inputs, get and set variable values, and interact in other ways with the current model or other models in the application.
The webAppAccess object also allows you to access system properties, the HttpServletRequest and HttpServletResponse objects, as well as the user's session.
Note: The webAppAccess object changes over the life of the session, so do not store the webAppAccess object as a member variable to an LJO because it will become stale as conditions and variable values change.
