I have implemented a Paginator SFSB and use it within my Seam action (also SFSB). I expose the paginator itself to the web layer using @Out. Currently, the paginator's collection is annotated with @DataModel, and that works fine for rendering and paginating. The Seam action has the @DataModelSelection which obviously does not work correctly. The question I have is, can you annotate using @DataModel and @DataModelSelection in two different classes? A SFSB Paginator didn't seem right to me so I also thought about extending DataModel for the paginator, and annotating that with @DataModel in the Seam action, which is probably the right way to go. Thanks for the suggestions. View the original post : http://www.jboss.com/index.html?module=bb&op=viewtopic&p=3976657#...
