[ https://issues.jboss.org/browse/FORGE-927?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.... ] Hanine Hanynowsky updated FORGE-927: ------------------------------------ Description: For a better user experience, adding ajax support for searching entities will be appreciated. Here are the modifications to have such support: For example: Let's consider the entity : *World.java* 1- change the method {{public void paginate(){}}} to {{public void paginate(AjaxBehavioreven event){}}} in *WorldBean.java* 2- in */world/search.xhtml* : change => bq. {{<f:event type="preRenderView" listener="#{helpBean.paginate()}" />}} bq. to => bq. {{<f:event type="preRenderView" listener="#{helpBean.paginate(this)}" />}} 3- embed : {{<f:ajax />}} in {{<h:inputText}} fields and/or {{<h:selecOneMenu}} ... components.....this way: bq.{{<h:inputText ........>}} bq. {{<f:ajax event="keyup" render="the_id_of_the_datatable"}} bq. {{execute="@form" />}} bq. {{</h:inputText>}} Remark: the ajax event for SelectOneMenu is click, not keyup. 4- finally in *WorldBean.java*, modify the create method, so that it becomes: bq. {{public String create() {}} {{if (this.conversation.isTransient()) {}} {{this.conversation.begin();}} {{} else {}} {{this.conversation.end();}} {{}}} {{return "create?faces-redirect=true";}} {{}}}}} 5- Optional: remove the search button in *search.xhtml* That's all. Ideally, Forge should let the developer specify if he/she would like to generate these statements in order to enable Ajax or not. Example: {{*scaffold-x from World.java --enableAjax true*}} was: For a better user experience, adding ajax support for searching entities will be appreciated.
