Working with ActionListener

i am working with a complex structured application where i have to invoke the ActionListener.processAction() before the PROCESS_VALIDATIONS phase.

i have a set of code which is

publicclass MyActionListenerimplements ActionListener{

public PhaseId getPhaseId(){

return PhaseId.PROCESS_VALIDATIONS;

}

publicvoid processAction(ActionEvent arg0)throws AbortProcessingException{

// TODO Auto-generated method stub

log.info("-- processAction --");

}

}

<h:commandButton id="btnSubmit"

action="#{bean.action}">

<f:actionListener type="mypack.listener.MyActionListener" />

</h:commandButton>

but the processAction is called in INVOKE_APPLICATION phase.

kindly help me to know how to invoke the listener before the Validation phase

thanks in advance
