Hi all, The DVD Store example shows using @DataModel, @Factory and JSF's isRowAvailable(): @DataModel | List<Order> orders; | | @DataModelSelection | @Out(value="myorder", required=false, scope=ScopeType.CONVERSATION) | Order order; | | @Begin @Factory("orders") | public String findOrders() { | : | } <f:subview rendered="#{!orders.rowAvailable}"> | <p>You have not placed any orders.</p> | </f:subview> The above works fine as long as the URL is not reloaded (Ctrl-R in the browser). However, when the URL includes a conversation ID (like &cid=123) then upon reloading the page, rowAvailable might yield false (as rowIndex == -1) while rowCount > 0. Is this the expected behavior? For example: In the online demo (which might be out of date, but I get the same behavior in my own code) clicking "My orders" works fine. Then, clicking Show Details for some order will make the URL include a &cid parameter (in fact named conversationId in that example, like showorders.seam?conversationId=123). Next, Ctrl-R or "Go" for that URL results in "You have not placed any orders". At this point the debug page shows, for example: Component (orders) | class class org.jboss.seam.jsf.ListDataModel | dataModelListeners [] | rowAvailable false | rowCount 22 | rowData java.lang.IllegalArgumentException[row is unavailable] | rowIndex -1 Next, clicking on "My orders" again (which has propagation="none") will correctly show the list again. This, however, triggers the @Factory method, and thus fetches fresh results from the database. In my own code I'm now using rowCount, just like in all the other examples that use @Datamodel. But I'm still wondering if this is the expected behavior? Does one need some additional setup (such as scope in the @DataModel) when relying on isRowAvailable()? Thanks, Arjan.
