gettting managed bean names

[Adrian Enns]

Is there a way to programmatically access the names of all of the managed beans that are declared in faces-config.xml?

[Varun Khanna]

Unfortunately as of now there isn't any api/method provided by JSF.

But you can do it through your program by parsing xml or reading a properties file containing the names of beans.

javax.servlet.ServletContext sCtx = (javax.servlet.ServletContext)
    FacesContext.getCurrentInstance().getExternalContext().getContext(); 
java.util.Enumeration enum =  sCtx.getAttributeNames();

Will return the names of the objects stored in the session. This will include managedBeans, but I guess they have to have been instantiated before theyre in the enumeration.
