I'm knee deep in some Seam/A4J fun and have hit a road block. Is it possible to have A4J refresh the value of a component without going through Apply Request Values? The attached code demonstrates what I'm trying to accomplish. I'd like to see changes (made outside this form in a different browser) to a person's Manager ID by clicking the the refresh button (cmdRefresh). In a typical web application, I would just have my users refresh the page to view changes but since it's AJAX, I'm essentially looking for is a way to mark a component as read-only for a given AJAX request. Does this even make sense? | | | <h:form id="DummyForm"> | <h:selectOneMenu id="lstDestination" value="#{BackingBean.managerId}" > | <f:selectItems value="#{Util.selectItems}" /> | </h:selectOneMenu> | <a4j:commandButton id="cmdRefresh" value="Refresh" reRender="lstDestination" /> | <a4j:commandButton id="cmdSave" value="Refresh" actionListener="#{BackingBean.save}" /> | </h:form> | | | public class Person { | | private String name; | private String phone; | private Long managerId; | | public Long getManagerId() { | return managerId; | } | | public void setManagerId(Long managerId) { | this.managerId = managerId; | } | | } | | public class BackingBean { | | Person person; | | public void setManagerId(Long managerId) { | this.person.setManagerId(managerId); | } | | public Long getManagerId() { | return this.person.getManagerId(); | } | | } | View the original post : http://www.jboss.com/index.html?module=bb&op=viewtopic&p=4044456#...
