Help with custom tag attribute

Rate this Message:
I have a custom tag that is composed by a <h:outputLabel /> + <h:inputText />. I need the maxlength attribute to be optional. The problem is that when I use <f:attribute /> I get a class cast exception.
Tag: <ui:composition Exception: java.lang.ClassCastException: java.lang.String cannot be cast to java.lang.Integer Any ideas? Thanks, Felipe |

There's a difference between saying something is optional by passing
in a null, entirely another to pass in a string and expect it to be ignored just because its not an integer. What is the value of maxlength when you pass it in? Is it null or a string?

Try mapping value to a backing bean #{foo.maxLength}
in your backing if max length is optional return null, else return Integer object with value set. It will get converted automatically. /Joe -------------------------------------------------- From: "Zarar Siddiqi" <zarars@...> Sent: Wednesday, May 06, 2009 11:26 AM To: <users@...> Subject: Re: Help with custom tag attribute > There's a difference between saying something is optional by passing > in a null, entirely another to pass in a string and expect it to be > ignored just because its not an integer. > > What is the value of maxlength when you pass it in?

Actually the problem is that f:attribute is not evaluating the the EL. If I pass the value literally it accepts, but if I pass #{maxlength} it is trying to set the string "#{maxlength}" as maxleght, so thats why the I get the ClassCastException.
<h:outputLabel value="#{label}" /> The id attribute is a better exemple of what I'm trying to do. When it's not set in the custom tag I'd like that it is not set in the h:inputText tag so that JSF generates the id. Otherwise always when I use the custom tag I'll have to set the id or write some crazy workaround to generate it so that I don't get a duplicated id exception. Any ideias? Does f:attribute only accepts literals? Thanks, Felipe 2009/5/6 joseph j marini <josephjmarini@...> Try mapping value to a backing bean #{foo.maxLength} |

Hi,
i didn't understand exactly what you mean.

Thanks for the help.
I'll try to explain better. My component doesn't have a Java class, its only a tag. It looks like this: <ui:composition The id attribute is expecting a value, so every time I use the component I have to set it, otherwise I'll get an IllegalArgumentException. If I hardcode the id I'll get a duplicated id exception if I have more than 1 component on the page. If I had a Java class for the component I could simply do something like this: if(id != null && !id.trim().isEmpty()) 2009/6/19 Fırat KÜÇÜK <firatkucuk@...> Hi, |

I'm not certain how you can handle an attribute that might not be
there, but if you know the attribute is always going to be used in your composition but you don't know if the argument will be specified, you can use this pattern. Maybe this will help. <c:if test="${empty rendered}"> <c:set var="rendered" value="${true}" /> </c:if> <h:panelGroup rendered="#{rendered}"> On Tue, Jul 7, 2009 at 7:42 AM, Felipe Jaekel<fkjaekel@...> wrote: > Thanks for the help. > > I'll try to explain better.
