            Description

            One of the methods of OutputChart makes a cast to ServletContext. This causes an exception when running in a portal environment. The method is getPath:

                public String getPath() {
                    String folder = "/";
                    if (getFacesContext() != null &&
                        getFacesContext().getExternalContext() != null) {
                        if (DOMResponseWriter.isStreamWriting()) {
                            folder = "./web/chart/images";
                        } else {
                            folder =
                                    ((ServletContext) getFacesContext().getExternalContext()
                                            .getContext()).getRealPath("/charts");
                        }
                    }
                    return folder;
                }


            I did a quick search of the component section of the repository and only found one other reference in InputFile but it might be legitimate as file upload is handled in a servlet context.

                Changed Fix Version to 1.7 DR#1.

                As a tip Mircea suggested to look into a bit of refactoring of this method to use the ResourceRegistry instead of the ServletContext. Adnan, can you check to see if this is a feasible solution for ICEfaces 1.7 DR#1?
