I have a managed bean that calls a server via a URL.
Since this will rarely change, I thought I'd add it to the faces-config.xml so that it would be a default value.
I added the property to my bean via Eclipse and it created the get/set accessors (not sure if these are needed, since they were optional).
I added the value to my managed bean's property.
I see that a global String was added to the bean class with the name of the new property.
However, when I call the bean, via a method I use to create a List and populate a dataTable in a JSF page, I find that the server URL variable is not initialized.
What do I have to do to get the bean to read its default managed property?
