Is it possible to do the following in Seam1.2.1.GA? I need a solution for a dataTable that can handle a dynamic column resultset from stored proc. snippet of .xhtml: <h:dataTable value="#{userRoleSearch.myList}" var="myItem" binding="#{userRoleSearch.dynamicDataTable}"/> snippet of userRoleSearch SFSB: | public HtmlDataTable getDynamicDataTable() { | if (dynamicDataTable == null) { | viewRolesData(selectedChoices); | populateDynamicDataTable(); | } | | return dynamicDataTable; | } anonymous wrote : The @DataModel Seam annotation exposes an attribute of type java.util.List to a JSF page as an instance of javax.faces.model.DataModel. The <h:dataTable> supports data binding to a collection of data objects represented by a DataModel instance. http://weblogs.java.net/blog/caroljmcdonald/archive/2007/07/sample_applic... In this case, I am not using @DataModel and the return type is HtmlDataTable which dynamically replaces the <h:dataTable> rendering based on the # of columns in the resultset. The solution above works fine with JSF + managed bean, but it doesn't work with Seam (I get JSF h:dataTable tag formatting error). Will I need to use a hybrid Seam SFSB + managed bean approach?? thx.
