[jboss-user] [JBoss Seam] - Problem with page actions, @Begin and stateful beans
I'm using seam 1.1beta2 (although the error occurs in 1.0.1.GA as well). I have
defined some page actions to setup some virtual pages so that two different user types
(standard and special) get redirected to a single sign-up page.
So, when a user goes to standardRegistration.faces they:
1. hit the virtualStandardRegistration page action method, which
2. creates a new User object and
3. redirects, via the returned jsf outcome, to memberRegistration.faces
4. which in turn calls the pageLoading method.
However, the stateful session bean invoked at step 1 is not the same as the stateful
session bean invoked at 4. Consequently, the user object created at step 2 is null and it
redirects back to standardRegistration and the whole process loops infinitely.
I should also mention there is another page action that checks the login credentials, but
that method always returns the null outcome in this situation, so in theory it can be
ignored.
Shouldn't these session beans be the same instance over the different invocations? If
you need any more information, please let me know and I'll post what I can.
Cheers, Pete
