tapestry4: Access visit object from IEngineService implementation

Question

what is the best way to get a reference to the current session's visit object from an implementation of IEngineService?

on my pages/components i access it via @InjectState("visit") public abstract Visit getVisit().

Can i inject it into my EngineService via hivemodule.xml or access it via the RequestCycle?

As usual with tapestry, the documentation mentions nothing...

Answer 1

figured it out.

<service-point id="MyService" interface="pkg.MyService">
    <invoke-factory>
        <construct class="pkg.MyService">
            <set-object property="linkFactory" value="infrastructure:linkFactory" />
            <set-service property="appStateMgr" service-id="tapestry.state.ApplicationStateManager"/>
        </construct>
    </invoke-factory>
</service-point>

and once it's injected:

(Visit) appStateMgr.get("visit")
