[forge-issues] [JBoss JIRA] (FORGE-914) Rework the handling of 1:M relationships by the Faces/RichFaces scaffold

Rework the handling of 1:M relationships by the Faces/RichFaces scaffold ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Key: FORGE-914 URL: https://issues.jboss.org/browse/FORGE-914 Project: Forge Issue Type: Task Components: Scaffold Affects Versions: 1.0.5.Final, 1.3.0.Final Reporter: Vineet Reynolds Assignee: Vineet Reynolds Fix For: 1.x Future The generated Faces scaffold for 1:M relationships does not handle certain usability aspects. For example, a new row is automatically added by default when displaying a 1:M relationship upon create. However, unless the add button is clicked, the contents of the row are not added to the underlying managed bean. If the add button is not clicked, the contents of the row are not treated as a new item to be added. This is very confusing. Also, if bean validation is performed on the entities (in the rows of the 1:M relationship), and if it fails, then the contents need to be corrected, even though they may not be persisted in the database. Again, this is confusing behavior. This task is a holder to fix such kind of issues in handling associations in the generated scaffold. Create sub-tasks as necessary for the individual issues that need fixing.
