context object in bsh

[Ritesh Trivedi]

Hi,

Can someone point(answer) where is the context and parameters object which is available in BSH initialized/created? Is it part of the request like delegator and/or other objects are?

e.g. /ofbiz/applications/order/webapp/ordmgr/.../category.bsh has

import org.ofbiz.base.util.*;
import org.ofbiz.entity.*;
import org.ofbiz.product.catalog.*;
import org.ofbiz.product.category.CategoryWorker;
import org.ofbiz.product.category.CategoryContentWrapper;

detailScreen = "categorydetail";
catalogName = CatalogWorker.getCatalogName(request);

productCategoryId = request.getAttribute("productCategoryId");
if (productCategoryId == null) {
    productCategoryId = parameters.get("category_id");
}
context.put("productCategoryId", productCategoryId);

Hi,

I would also like to add one more thing that when we write bsh which one
should be prefer and when from context and parameters means what are
scenarios when we should prefer context to put values and when we should
prefer parameters.

Thanks and Regards

Take a look at ScreenRenderer.populateContextForRequest method.
