Hi,
I didn't know how to search for this specific problem, so I started a new thread. I
hope you don't mind.
I have a form which allows the user to enter some values, which are attached to a bean
(called testactionToCreate). As the name says, this form should allow the user to create a
new testaction. To specify a testaction the user can choose a testcase from a
dropdown-list, but he doesn't need to. But as soon as he chooses a testcase, some
fields on the page should be filled with the values of the testcase. Then the user adds
some data and submits the form.
That's the idea.
The dropdown-list gets its entries from a stateful bean, the testcaseSelector. In this
bean I defined a valueChangeListener which sets some values of the injected
testactionToCreate. This works fine. After those values are set, the testactionToCreate is
outjected.
Now comes my problem: I only see the attributes set by testcaseSelector if they are
displayed in an output field like h:outputText.
Next step would be to save the testactionToCreate. The save method is defined in a third
bean, called createTestaction. When the save method is invoked all attributes set by the
testcaseSelector are null. And that's a problem, too. But I think it's related to
the first problem.
Here is some code:
The entity bean (testactionToCreate):
@Entity
| @Table(name="TESTACTIONS")
| @Name("testaction")
| @Scope(ScopeType.SESSION)
| public class Testaction implements Serializable, Cloneable {
| private long m_ID;
| //... the attribute list is too long. Ask me, if you need more
| private Long m_TCaseID;
| private Long m_TObjID;
The bean saving the entitiy bean (createTestaction):
@Stateless
| @LoggedIn
| @Name("createTestaction")
| public class CreateTestactionAction implements CreateTestaction, Serializable {
| @PersistenceContext(unitName = "aresDatabase")
| private EntityManager em;
|
| @In
| @Valid
| private User user;
|
| @Valid
| @In(required=false)
| @Out(required=false)
| private Testaction testactionToCreate;
|
| @In(required=false)
| private Release selectedRelease;
|
| @Factory("testactionToCreate")
| public void initTestactionToCreate() {
| if(testactionToCreate != null) {
| return;
| }
| testactionToCreate = new Testaction();
| testactionToCreate.setTesterUsrID(user.getID());
| testactionToCreate.setValidatorUsrID(user.getID());
| }
|
| @IfInvalid(outcome=Outcome.REDISPLAY)
| public String createTestaction() {
| // do something and return an outcome
| }
The bean managing the dropdown-list (testcaseSelector):
@Stateful
| @Scope(ScopeType.SESSION)
| @LoggedIn
| @Name("testcaseSelector")
| public class TestcaseSelection implements TestcaseSelector, Serializable {
| @PersistenceContext(unitName = "aresDatabase")
| private EntityManager em;
|
| @In(required=false)
| private Release selectedRelease;
|
| @In(required=false) @Out(required=false)
| private Testaction testactionToCreate;
|
| private Long lastSelectedReleaseID;
|
| @In(required=false) @Out(required=false, scope=ScopeType.SESSION)
| private Testcase selectedTestcase;
|
| private List<Testcase> testcases;
|
|
| public void valueChanged(ValueChangeEvent event) {
| setSelectedTestcaseNumber((Long) event.getNewValue());
| if(selectedTestcase != null && testactionToCreate != null) {
| testactionToCreate.setTObjID(selectedTestcase.getTObjID());
| testactionToCreate.setTCaseToken(selectedTestcase.getToken());
| testactionToCreate.setTCaseDescr(selectedTestcase.getDescr());
| }
| }
And the form:
<h:form>
| <div id="errors"><h:messages layout="table"
/></div>
| <div class="buttonLine">
| <h:commandButton action="#{createTestaction.createTestaction}" />
| </div>
|
| <div id="release">
| <h:outputText value="#{ares_messages.filter_release}: " />
| <h:selectOneMenu
value="#{releaseSelector.selectedReleaseNumberOnly}"
onchange="submit()">
| <f:selectItems value="#{releaseSelector.releaseItemsOnly}" />
| </h:selectOneMenu>
| </div>
|
| <table cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0"
border="0">
| <tr>
| <th><h:outputText
value="#{ares_messages.label_testaction_TesterUsrID}" /></th>
| <th><h:outputText
value="#{ares_messages.label_testaction_TCaseID}" /></th>
| <th><h:outputText
value="#{ares_messages.label_testaction_TObjID}" /></th>
| <th><h:outputText
value="#{ares_messages.label_testaction_QATID}" /></th>
| <th><h:outputText
value="#{ares_messages.label_testaction_SevID}" /></th>
| <th><h:outputText
value="#{ares_messages.label_testaction_DevUsrID}" /></th>
| <th><h:outputText
value="#{ares_messages.label_testaction_CompID}" /></th>
| <th> </th>
| </tr>
| <tr>
| <td>
| <h:selectOneMenu value="#{testactionToCreate.testerUsrID}">
| <f:selectItems value="#{selectMenuHelper.testersWithEmptyEntry}"
/>
| </h:selectOneMenu>
| </td>
| <td>
| <h:selectOneMenu value="#{testcaseSelector.selectedTestcaseNumber}"
| onchange="submit()"
| valueChangeListener="#{testcaseSelector.valueChanged}">
| <f:selectItems value="#{testcaseSelector.testcaseItems}" />
| </h:selectOneMenu>
| </td>
| <td><h:outputText value="#{testactionToCreate.TObjID}"
/></td>
| <td><h:outputText value="#{testactionToCreate.QATID}"
/></td>
| <td>
| <h:selectOneMenu value="#{testactionToCreate.sevID}">
| <f:selectItems value="#{selectMenuHelper.severities}" />
| </h:selectOneMenu>
| </td>
| <td>
| <h:selectOneMenu value="#{testactionToCreate.devUsrID}">
| <f:selectItems value="#{selectMenuHelper.developers}" />
| </h:selectOneMenu>
| </td>
| <td><h:outputText value="#{testactionToCreate.compID}"
/></td>
| <td> </td>
| </tr>
| </table>
|
| <table cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0"
border="0">
| <tr>
| <th><h:outputText
value="#{ares_messages.label_testobject_Token}" /></th>
| <th><h:outputText
value="#{ares_messages.label_testaction_TCaseToken}" /></th>
| </tr>
| <tr>
| <td><h:outputText value="pending" /></td>
| <td><h:inputText value="#{testactionToCreate.TCaseToken}"
style="width: 100%;" /></td>
| </tr>
| </table>
I tried several SessionTypes (PAGE, EVENT, SESSION and CONVERSATION) for the outjection of
the bean testactionToCreate. I tried also to define testactionToCreate as a @Role of
Testaction. Anything worked.
Has anybody an idea how to solve this problem?
