Accessing session from Freemarker page

[haninaguib]

Does any one know how to do it?
I want to check in my ftl file if session[user] exists?

Hello Hani:
I faced the same problem, and according to davison's reply
http://forum.springframework.org/sho...ssion&start=15

you just have to add
<property name="exposeSessionAttributes"><value>true</value></property>

to the Freemarker view resolver

good luck

Thanks Tamer,
This solved my problem, I had originally used an interceptor, but this is
really what I was looking for.

Hi All,

is there a way to expose the response too? Or is there a better approach to rewrite URLs with freemarker? I'd like to use somthing like:

${response.encodeURL("/path/to/document.ext")}

Any ideas how to do this?

PS: I'm aware of the url internal, but it does not do what i need. the call must go to response.encodeURL() so that servlet filters can be applied.

For the lurkers: Since there seems to be no official way to make response available, i opened a JIRA issue providing an example implementation (class inherits from FreeMarkerView.
