I have an Entitiy called Category as defined here:

I have a SFSB defined here:
| package com.mystuff.fresh.actions;
|

| private static Log log;
|
| @Factory("rootCategory")
| public String findRoot()
| {
| log.trace("findRoot() called");
| rootCategory = (Category) em.createNamedQuery("Category.findRoot").getSingleResult();
| return "success";
| }
|
| @SuppressWarnings("unchecked")
| @Factory("categories")
| public String findCategories()
| {
| log.trace("findAll() called");
| categories = em.createNamedQuery("Category.findAll").getResultList();
| return "success";
| }
|
| // TODO: Need to find a way to initialize currentCategory at startup of the
| // session so that
| // It is available before any page loads. This is a current issue with the
| // home.xhtml
| // which wants to display the current category before referencing categories
| @Create
| public String init()
| {
| log.trace("init() called");
|
| if (currentCategory == null)
| {
| log.warn("init() currentCategory is NULL");
| currentCategory = (Category) em.createNamedQuery("Category.findRoot").getSingleResult();
| }
|
| log.info("init() - currentCategory: #0", currentCategory);
| return "success";
| }
|
| public void select()
| {
| return;
| }
|
| @Remove
| @Destroy
| public void destroy()
| {

| }
|
On the homepage, I want to display the list of Categories, with the currentCategory displayed with a graphic (a bullet) next to it:
home.xhtml
| <!DOCTYPE composition PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN"
| "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd">
| <ui:composition xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml"
| xmlns:s="http://jboss.com/products/seam/taglib"
| xmlns:ui="http://java.sun.com/jsf/facelets"
| xmlns:f="http://java.sun.com/jsf/core"
| xmlns:h="http://java.sun.com/jsf/html"
| template="/layout/template.xhtml">
|
| <ui:define name="body">
|
| <h:messages globalOnly="true" styleClass="message"/>
| <h:outputText value="CurrentCategory: #{currentCategory.name}"/>
|
| <table class="standard">
| <tr>
| <td width="18%">
| <ui:include src="/layout/categories.xhtml"/>
| </td>
| </tr>
| </table>
|
|
|
| </ui:define>
| </ui:composition>
|
which includes the following xhtml snippet:
categories.xhtml
| <div class="category"
| xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml"
| xmlns:ui="http://java.sun.com/jsf/facelets"
| xmlns:h="http://java.sun.com/jsf/html"
| xmlns:f="http://java.sun.com/jsf/core"
| xmlns:s="http://jboss.com/products/seam/taglib">
| <h:form id="categorylistform">
| <h:outputText value="No categories to display" rendered="#{categories.rowCount==0}"/>
| <h:dataTable styleclass="category" value="#{categories}" var="cat" rendered="#{categories.rowCount>0}">
| <h:column>
| <h:graphicImage styleClass="vcenter" id="selectedcategoryimage" alt="selected category" url="/img/pic_selected_dot_9x9.gif" rendered="#{cat.id==currentCategory.id}"/>
| </h:column>
| <h:column>
| <h:commandLink styleClass="topcategory" value="#{cat.name}" title="#{cat.description}" action="#{categoryManager.select}" rendered="#{cat.parentId == rootCategory.id}"/>
| <h:commandLink styleClass="childcategory" value="#{cat.name}" title="#{cat.description}" action="#{categoryManager.select}" rendered="#{cat.parentId != rootCategory.id}"/>
| <h:outputText value="Â Â Â (#{cat.numberOfEntries})"/>
| </h:column>
| </h:dataTable>
| </h:form>
| </div>
|
here is a sample of the data loaded by import.sql:
| insert into Category (id, parentId, name, description, visible, numberOfEntries) values (0, 0, 'All', 'All description', true, 0)
| insert into Category (id, parentId, name, description, visible, numberOfEntries) values (1, 0, 'Arts', 'Arts description', true, 0)
| insert into Category (id, parentId, name, description, visible, numberOfEntries) values (2, 1, 'Art', 'Arts | Art description', true, 0)
| insert into Category (id, parentId, name, description, visible, numberOfEntries) values (3, 1, 'Books', 'Arts | Books description', true, 2)
| insert into Category (id, parentId, name, description, visible, numberOfEntries) values (4, 1, 'Movies', 'Arts | Movies description', true, 0)
| insert into Category (id, parentId, name, description, visible, numberOfEntries) values (5, 1, 'Music', 'Arts | Music description', true, 0)
| insert into Category (id, parentId, name, description, visible, numberOfEntries) values (6, 1, 'Television', 'Arts | Television description', true, 0)
| insert into Category (id, parentId, name, description, visible, numberOfEntries) values (7, 1, 'Theater', 'Arts | Theater description', true, 0)
| insert into Category (id, parentId, name, description, visible, numberOfEntries) values (8, 0, 'Business', 'Business description', true, 0)
|
Again, my goal is to remember what category the user has selected. I made currentCategory a SESSION scoped context variable. CategoryManagerAction is CONVERSATION component.
When I first load up home.xhtml, currentCategory is set to the Root Category result returned from entitymanager and the bullet appears next to the root category (All in this case).
When I click on a another category, the page refreshes and the bullet appears on the newly selected category (Books for example).
My issue is that if I refresh the page (using the browser refresh), the bullet disappears (I would expect it to be drawn next to Books).
If I hit refresh a second time, a bullet appears next to All.
It is as if the currentCategory is lost after the response is written. I checked debug.seam after clicking hitting refresh, and I see currentCategory in the SESSION, and it has the correct Book value.
Am I correct in defining currentCategory to be SESSION scoped in the entity, and setting it from the CONVERSATION scoped SFSB?
Is there a better way to organize this? Do I need @Factory("currentCategory") on a method on the SFSB to make this all work?

[JBoss Seam] - Re: Run JSF RI on WebSphere 6.1
by michael.yuanï¼ jboss.com
I removed the jsf-ibm.jar from the server (it was on "shared lib" path), and put the JSF RI jars into the server's lib directory. However, I am getting this error now. Since the com.ibm.ws.jsf package is in com.ibm.ws.webcontainer_2.0.0.jar file, there is no easy way to "remove" them. I tried to remove the com.ibm.ws.jsf package and then re-pack the com.ibm.ws.webcontainer_2.0.0.jar. But then the server will complain NPE when loading JSF ...
