Hi all, I use JSF 1.2 RI on JBoss 5 Beta 2 and I try to update a backing bean in the application phase like this: | public class MyBean{ | ... | protected MyDataStructure m; // + getter/setter | | public String anActionMethodWithOutcome() { | ... | setM(new MyDataStructure()); | ... | return outcome; | } | } | Before the call of anActionMethodWithOutcome() m is null. At the last line of anActionMethodWithOutcome() m is set to a correct value. No other setM() is called. BUT, when the response renders the screen and a getter-method is called, I see in the debugger, that m is null :-( I think, it has anything to do with the livecycle of jsf... Is there a way to update the model and have this modification still at response time?
