[jboss-user] [JBoss Seam] - conversational bean not always redirecting to ifNotBegunOutc
This is probably my misunderstanding of the phases and conversations, but here it
goes....
We have a seam app with a lot of @Conversational beans. Many of these beans support
wizards.
If a user is on the nth page of one of the wizards, and the server was just bounced, I
would expect the "Next" button to automatically redirect them to the
"ifNotBegunOutcome" of the class associated with the "Next" buttons
action method. However, in most scenarios, it lets the "Next" go through and
the user is shown a nonsense wizard page filled with blanks.
It appears that the problem has to do with the sequence of the the Conversational check
and the instantiation of the components associated with the form post.
Conversational checks only occur in the INVOKE_APPLICATION phase. If the Conversational
bean does not exist in the conversation scope, it will redirect to the ifNotBegunOutcome.
However, during the APPLY_REQUEST_VALUES phase, the Conversational beans have already bean
instantiated by the SeamVariableResolver.
For instance, in the log below, we are demonstrating what happens when we click the
"Next" button on an action that uses the worksheetBean. I had just restarted
the server (and thus the conversation was gone). Because the worksheetBean is
instantiated by the SeamVariableResolver, the intended Conversational check never occurs.
What can we do about this?
