Re: Redirecting to a page from a MethodAdvice implementation

[Lance Java]

As a simple rule, if you instantiated the object yourself, @Inject won't
work.

See here:
private final MethodAdvice advice = new MethodAdvice() ...

You've used "new" so it's not under tapestry's control.
 Hello,
I have the following class to handle the execution of methods that are
annotated with a custom @ExceptionDisplay annotation. Everything works as
expected, but I would like to redirect to a page. I'm using
PageRenderLinkSource and Response to do that. I inject them in the same way
I usually inject them into pages, but in this case it does not work,
because the PageRenderLinkSource and Response instances are both null. I
imagine that's because they should be only injected into pages or
components, so I'm wondering if / how is it possible to redirect to a page
from a MethodAdvice. Thanks in advance for any possible suggestion.
