getFlowScope

[scott]

I saw two blocks of codes:

[One]
AttributeMap flowScope = context.getFlowScope();
String wizardId = flowScope.getString("id");

[Two]
FlowSession activeSession = context.getFlowExecutionContext().getActiveSession ();

AttributeMap flowScope = activeSession.getScope();
result = flowScope.get("id");


My question is:

Are these above two blocks of codes equivalent?
If I can get the flowScope via context.getFlowScope(), why bother using
context --> FlowSession --> getFlowScope() ?

Or may I ask the question in this way: What is the difference for the flowScope got from context.getFlowScope() and the flowScope got from
context.getFlowExecutionContext().getActiveSession ().getScope()?



Thanks

They are the same scope--the requestContext.getFlowScope() is there as convenience for requestContext.getFlowExecutionContext().getActive Session().getScope().

See the JavaDoc--it should note this.
