JSF 2.1 Redirect Preserving Error Message

I have the following actionButton method handler:

public String reject()
{
  //Do something
  addMessage(null, "rejectAmountInvalid", FacesMessage.SEVERITY_ERROR);

  redirectToPortlet("/xxx/inbox?source=pendingActions#pendingApproval");
}

public static void addMessage(String clientId, String key, Severity level, Object... objArr)
{
    FacesContext context = FacesContext.getCurrentInstance();
    FacesMessage message = null;
    String msg = getTextFromResourceBundle(key);
    if (objArr != null && objArr.length > 0)
        msg = MessageFormat.format(msg, objArr);
    message = new FacesMessage(msg);

    message.setSeverity(level);
    context.addMessage(clientId, message);
}

public static void redirectToPortlet(String urlToRedirect)
{
    FacesContext context = FacesContext.getCurrentInstance();
    ExternalContext externalContext = context.getExternalContext();

    try
    {
        PortletRequest portletRequest = (PortletRequest) externalContext.getRequest();
        ThemeDisplay themeDisplay = (ThemeDisplay) portletRequest.getAttribute("THEME_DISPLAY");
        String portalURL = themeDisplay.getPortalURL();
        String redirect = portalURL + urlToRedirect;
        externalContext.redirect(redirect);
    }
    catch (Throwable e)
    {
        logger.log("Exception in redirectToPortlet to the URL: " + urlToRedirect, VLevel.ERROR, e);
    }
}

When the page is redirected to "/ xxx / inbox? Source = pendingActions # pendingApproval", the error message that I added is lost. Is there a way to save the error message in JSF 2.1?

Thanks Sri

You can use PhaseListener to save messages that were not displayed for the next query.

I use some time from the blog post Lincoln Baxter Save and pass FacesMessages over multiple page redirects , you just copy the class to some package and register for faces-config.xml.

, , , :

package com.yoursite.jsf;

import java.util.ArrayList;
import java.util.Iterator;
import java.util.List;
import java.util.Map;

import javax.faces.application.FacesMessage;
import javax.faces.context.FacesContext;
import javax.faces.event.PhaseEvent;
import javax.faces.event.PhaseId;
import javax.faces.event.PhaseListener;

/**
 * Enables messages to be rendered on different pages from which they were set.
 *
 * After each phase where messages may be added, this moves the messages
 * from the page-scoped FacesContext to the session-scoped session map.
 *
 * Before messages are rendered, this moves the messages from the
 * session-scoped session map back to the page-scoped FacesContext.
 *
 * Only global messages, not associated with a particular component, are
 * moved. Component messages cannot be rendered on pages other than the one on
 * which they were added.
 *
 * To enable multi-page messages support, add a <code>lifecycle</code> block to your
 * faces-config.xml file. That block should contain a single
 * <code>phase-listener</code> block containing the fully-qualified classname
 * of this file.
