Re: [Trinidad] ValueChangeListener issues

2009-11-26T08:57:05Z

Hi Markus,

I wrote a small HTML file to test if the javascript events are triggered
correctly in the mentioned browsers, and they are. So it is not a javascript
event problem, but a trinidad (javascript) problem.

Unfortunately I am not that familiar with trinidad to determine why this
does not function properly, but I hope there is someone at the list, who can
help you.

[Trinidad] ValueChangeListener issues

2009-11-26T01:40:56Z

Hi list,

I have found an issue with “multiple” value change events in one request.

I have a simple test setup:

One page with just a form, an InputText and an SelectBooleanCheckbox (see file attached).

Both inputs save their value in a HashMap in session (could also be a managed bean but so less test code is needed).

Both inputs have a ValueChangeListener and autoSubmit on true.

The InputText auto submits when it loose focus.

The SelectBooleanCheckbox auto submits when it’s get clicked.

But if I enter the page, enter some text and immediate click on the checkbox without leaving the InputText before clicking only the text in the InputText is submitted and only the InputText ValueChangeListener is called.

The SelectBooleanCheckbox “looks” like checked, but if I reload the page (without fire event, clicking button, ect.) the SelectBooleanCheckbox get’s deselected automatically because the value in the session never changed.

Any idea how to get around this?

Should I fill a Jira?

Tested with

jsf-facelets 1.1.13

myfaces 1.1.5

trinidad 1.0.11

(Sorry have not test setup for JSF 1.2 so can’t test with Trinidad 1.2, but the test setup is straight forward)

Regards

Markus

[TRINIDAD] Alternative for tr:selectOneChoice

2009-11-25T23:09:19Z

Hi there,

as our applications still have to be compatible to IE6 we're quite unhappy with
the tr:selectOneChoice as is makes use of the HTML select component which
is a pain in IE6 (IE6 being the culprit, not the select, of course; e.g. the good
old z-index bug...).

So, here's my question: Does anyone know of an alternative to the tr:selectOneChoice
that doesn't make use of the HTML select and that can easily be plugged into an
existing Trinidad based application?

Thanks, Carsten

RE: AW: Possible to force bean to load into session at session start up?

2009-11-25T09:16:36Z

I tried out Matt's solution and it works well (as a short term fix until I can redesign the application). The exact syntax was

EmailController ectrl = (EmailController) facesContext.getApplication().getVariableResolver().resolveVariable(facesContext, "emailController");

Thanks a million, - Dave

You need to do something like this, I don't remember the exact syntax...

facesContext.getApplication().getVariableResolver().resolveVariable("#{myManagedBean}");

Calling resolve variable will instantiate the bean and do initialize any variables defined in the faces-config. It's essentially the same as using it on a page. Since using on a page will eventually call the same method (resolveVariable).

MyFaces Tobago and Applets

2009-11-25T08:51:56Z

Hi,
currently i'm using MyFaces 1.1.7 and Tobago 1.0.23.
I'm trying to include an applet into my togabo page using the <jsf:plugin> tag. But for some reason it doesn't seem to work. No code is generated for this tag. When i use the <jsf:plugin> tag outside of the <tc:page> from Tobago it works, but that isn't what i want since i use Tobago for header and footer rows.
The only workaround i found was using the <tc:out> tag with an <applet> tag as its value.

In my most basic try the page looked like this:
<f:view>
<tc:page>
<jsp:plugin ..... />
</tc:page>
</f:view>

Could somebody please tell me what i'm doing wrong. Using a <tc:out> tag just feels wrong for this.

Thanks and best regards,
Ungf

Dummy, but works as requested

Make a dependency in a faces config between a bean which appears on the
first page and session bean.

RE: [TRINIDAD] Family and component type for SelectRangeChoiceRenderer

2009-11-25T06:00:51Z

If anyone is interested, here's the solution to the problem.

I did exactly what Harald advised (writing our own TableRenderer whose inner private class
NavBar extends MySelectRangeChoiceRenderer).

But as TableRenderer is an abstract class I also had to write our own version of the
DesktopTableRenderer which now extends our TableRenderer. In our CoreRenderKit's
constructor the only thing I had to add is this

addRenderer("org.apache.myfaces.trinidad.Table",
"org.apache.myfaces.trinidad.Table", new DesktopTableRenderer());

Note that there's no need to add a renderer for our SelectRangeChoiceRenderer (i.e.
MySelectRangeChoiceRenderer). The reason for this most probably is, that it's not a
real component but more of a sub-component of the table...

Cheers, Carsten

That's a very good hint. So probably I'm just writing our own TableRenderer and put our stuff
directly into the private NavBar class.

RE: How do you access public static final values in your JSF app?

2009-11-25T02:08:42Z

I had this exact problem. My solution was to create a managed bean in the application scope that implements the Map interface. You need to override the get method and in there I use reflection to find the constant field value. Then I store that in an actual HashMap (which is declared as final and static in the managed bean), so next time it just reads it off the HashMap. Eventually every constant accessed will be in the Map and reflection won't be used anymore. I wrote about this on my blog a while ago,
http://rossner.wordpress.com/

Unfortunately anything on wordpress.com is blocked from my current location so I can't give you the permalink address but I think it's the second most recent post (haven't posted anything in a while...). I'm wondering if the spring thing works in a similar way.

RE: [TRINIDAD] Family and component type for SelectRangeChoiceRenderer

2009-11-25T01:13:03Z

Thank you guys!

@Harald:
> I.e. the renderer org.apache.myfaces.trinidadinternal.renderkit.core.xhtml.TableRenderer has a
> static private class NavBar extends SelectRangeChoiceBarRenderer
That's a very good hint. So probably I'm just writing our own TableRenderer and put our stuff
directly into the private NavBar class.

Btw, TreeTableRenderer itself doesn't deal with the SelectRangeChoiceBarRenderer. It
extends DesktopTableRenderer extends TableRenderer. Thus, implementing our own TableRenderer
should do...

@Mamallan:
> Please try below for selectRangeChoicebar:
> component-family = org.apache.myfaces.trinidad.SelectRange
> renderer-type = org.apache.myfaces.trinidad.ChoiceBar
I already had tried this but without the modifications that Harald advised. So, even if these
are the right settings, they had no chance to work properly for me. But thanks anyway!

Best wishes,
Carsten

RE: [TRINIDAD] Family and component type for SelectRangeChoiceRenderer

Hi Carsten,

you probably have to implement your own TableRenderer (or TreeTableRenderer).

I.e. the renderer org.apache.myfaces.trinidadinternal.renderkit.core.xhtml.TableRenderer has a
static private class NavBar extends SelectRangeChoiceBarRenderer

This private class always extends the Trinidad default renderer, but it should extend your own SelectRangeChoiceBarRenderer-implementation.

I thought so, too! Thanks for the reply! This problem kept me thinking
about the same things you mentioned, do I really need a Faces Reqeust or
should I do a Non-Faces Request instead. Also, I kept reading the docs and
thought - OK, the panelNavigation is in a form, by clicking a link I
submit this form, but only this form - right? Some further debug should
that the 'old' page was accessed again in the APPLY-REQUEST-VALUES phase,
which had me thinking it is being submitted as a form - but I didn't have
a form-Tag around the content of the page.

Basically that's what I did to get rid of the problem, I added a form-Tag
to surround the content of the page and after that it wasn't submitted /
accessed / processed when clicking one of the links in the navigation.

Does this sound like a reasonable solution? It works for me now, but could
an extra (not needed) form have some other impacts? I don't think it does,
but maybe someone has experienced the opposite?

More often than not, I use an accessor on the backing bean.

public String getSomeConstant()
{
return SOME_CONSTANT;
}

#{someBean.someConstant}

How do you access public static final values in your JSF app?

2009-11-24T15:07:36Z

Hi,

I'm using MyFaces 1.1.6 and Tomahawk 1.1.9. I have a public static final int constant in a certain class, and I would like to be able to access that value in my JSF page using JSF code. I was curious what mechanisms you sue to do that.

The only informative article I found on the subject is here -- http://java_rzanner.blogspot.com/2006/09/usage-of-constant-values-in-jsp-code.html, which discusses creating a map of constants and putting them into the application scope via a ServletContextListener.

Could be the latter.

The whole idea of JSF is that you build a tree of components and they
handle things like navigation, actions etc. That's much different from
what action oriented frameworks do, and has some unexpected implications.

Pressing the commandNavigation must be processed by the
commandNavigation component itself, not some other entity. And the only
way of reaching your commandNavigation is for JSF to rebuild the whole
component tree (actions taken may depend on state of some other
controls). This is exactly why your original page gets reloaded. Actions
and things like navigation, I believe, are processed in one of the last
phases (Invoke Application), just before rendering the page, but after
building the component tree.

If you don't need all the above, you shouldn't be using
commandNavigation, an ordinary link would do. If you still want to use
it, try immediate='true'. This should cause your action to be processed
during 'apply request values' phase. Depending on how your backing beans
work, this could solve your problem.

Hope this helps,
Filip Dreger

[TRINIDAD] Family and component type for SelectRangeChoiceRenderer

2009-11-24T07:37:37Z

Hello,

we want to overwrite Trinidad's default SelectRangeChoiceRenderer. We already do this with other renderer. We have a class ExtendedCoreRenderKit extends CoreRenderKit. In the constructor we are
calling the RenderKitBase's addRenderer(String family, String rendererType, Renderer renderer)

Example:
addRenderer("org.apache.myfaces.trinidad.Tree",
"org.apache.myfaces.trinidad.Tree", new TreeRenderer());

Everything's working fine so far, but I can't seem to find the right family and rendererType for the
SelectRangeChoice (the "pager" to navigate through huge tables...).

This is what I considered my best guess:

addRenderer("org.apache.myfaces.trinidad.SelectRange",
"org.apache.myfaces.trinidad.CoreSelectRangeChoiceBar",
new MySelectRangeChoiceBarRenderer());

Only it doesn't seem to be good enough. I always get Trinidad's default renderer.
No exception thrown or anything which leaves me quite clueless.

If anyone knows the right parameters, please let me know.
Thanks a lot, Carsten

RE: [TRINIDAD]Use different Stylesheets

2009-11-24T02:29:12Z

Hello again,

First I want to thank for the links he sent, they were quite helpful.

To make clear what I want to do: I created a stylesheet for printing the
page, were I remove unneeded elements like pictures, set another font-color
and so on. I can now switch to the stylesheet using some code similar to the
examples from Arnold. But I can't change the stylesheet if the user hits
the print button in his browser.

What would be a much easier solution (instead of changing the stylesheet
with my print button, print and then change it back), is the css annotation
@media. Doesn't Trinidad support this annotation? I can't seem to get it to
work. When I hit the print button, I get some standard stylesheet, but not
the values I defined in the @media annotation.

Or is there another way to use my stylesheet for printing?

Thanks,

t:panelNavigation rerendering source page

2009-11-23T08:47:29Z

Hi there!

Maybe some can explain this to me - it might be a general JSF
misunderstanding I am having.

I'm using t:panelNavigation + t:commandNavigation to have a 'navigation'
on every jsf page. When pressing one of the t:commandNavigation items it
causes a reload of the current page I am on before executing the action
specified.

The behaviour I would expect would not be a request to the current page I
am on but to the new page w/o rendering the old one. My problem is that
the request to the old page causes a query to the database causing
performance problems - as it is loading not needed data! I read through
the documentation and couldn't find any possible solution (checked the
lifecycle in particular:
http://java.sun.com/j2ee/1.4/docs/tutorial/doc/JSFIntro10.html).

I think the problem is that the t:commandNavigation needs to be nested in
a form that is submitted by clicking on one of the items. Does this cause
the whole page to be rerendered? Am I getting anything wrong here? Maybe
someone can give me some hints where to look or what might be wrong.

Thank you!

- Stefan

Re: How do I validate a group of fields?

Have you looked at validateCompareTo (CompareToValidator) that I
mentioned earlier? That would be one of the things you can use it
for. Something like this.

<text2/>

<text2>
<validateCompareTo for=text3 operation="ne"/>
</text2>

<text1>
<validateCompareTo for=text2 operation="ne"/>
<validateCompareTo for=text3 operation="ne"/>

hi dave,

you can use @NotEquals of myfaces extval.
maybe you will be also interested in @DateIs, if the dates have to be in a
special order.

hi,

as mentioned in my previous post, i added the functionality to the
validation strategy for @RequiredIf [1]
the changes are compatible with existing versions of extval. i'll provide
details about using it with already released versions, if someone would like
to use this improvement with a released version instead of the next
milestone.

furthermore, i added some information to the wiki [2] (the section
"conditional validation via cross-validation")

Re: Does the validation life cycle get logged anywhere?

2009-11-20T11:40:34Z

Yes, if you leave the line blank, there won't be any validation.

The line would go in whatever logging configuration file you're using.

For me, it goes in log4j.properties in the root of my classpath.

Re: Does the validation life cycle get logged anywhere?

2009-11-20T11:24:05Z

Is it true that if you have a custom validator set up for the input, but you leave the input field empty, your validator will not get invoked?

Also, where does this line

org.apache.myfaces.lifecycle.LifecycleImpl = trace

go? Thanks, - Dave

This is for 1.2, but it's probably the same.

org.apache.myfaces.lifecycle.LifecycleImpl = trace

will log the lifecycle. Seems like this should really be debug level.

Most of the time it's a lifecycle issue rather than a validation issue.

Sometimes making sure you have a message/messages component is
sufficient to identify the problem.

I don't see any logging for UIInput, but you can set a breakpoint at
processValidators() if neither of the above help.

Re: [Trinidad] Trinidad, Facelets, multiple forms

Hi Arnold,

I don't see why a solution with request parameters is more elegant than
using a JSF/Spring managed bean?

Best regards,
Bart

Setting backing bean for radio buttons?

2009-11-20T09:56:32Z

Hi,

I'm using Tomahawk 1.1.9 for JBoss 5.1. How are you supposed to set the backing bean value for a set of radio buttons? I have this ...

<t:selectOneRadio id="domeTourSpecialNeeds" value="#{domeTour.specialNeeds}" layout="spread" onclick="showHideSpecialNeeds('specialNeedsDome', this.value);">
<f:selectItem itemValue="Y" itemLabel="Yes" />
<f:selectItem itemValue="N" itemLabel="No" />
</t:selectOneRadio>
<t:radio for="domeTourSpecialNeeds" index="0"></t:radio>
<t:radio for="domeTourSpecialNeeds" index="1"></t:radio>

and then these backing bean methods ...

public String getSpecialNeeds() {
return (specialNeeds != null ? specialNeeds : "");
}
public void setSpecialNeeds(String specialNeeds) {
LOGGER.info("setting special needs:" + specialNeeds);
this.specialNeeds = specialNeeds;
}

but an empty string is getting passed to my setter, even when I confirm through Firebug that I am submitting a value of "Y". So is there something special about radio buttons regarding setting the backing bean value? Any help or examples are appreciated, - Dave

Hello,

Let me draw your attention to the undermentioned sites:

I hope these will help.
