Hello! How can I download a file from the Ivy-Server's "files/application"-folder to a folder on the client with JSF per program-code? We are using only JSF in this project. No RIA. Is it possibly to download a file to the client without user-interaction in JSF, at all? Kind Regards, Helmut

Hi Helmut, Is it possibly to download a file to the client without user-interaction in JSF, at all? I think it is not possible because simply browsers don't allow it due to security issues (web page just can't put files into a specific folder of the client without their approvement).

In my project I solved it via the RequestContext framework from primefaces. It lets you invoke java script code on the client. And in this case I send a redirect to my file as javascript command. The following code should work in a dialog script activity:

import org.primefaces.context.RequestContext;
String redirectScript = "window.location.href='"+ivy.html.fileref(in.exportedFile)+"';";
RequestContext.getCurrentInstance().execute(redirectScript);
