Well it's not a "JSF lifecycle" question in fact, but I guess it's related. I want to use a stateful bean, backing a xhtml page. The link is like this: | <s:link view="/PageactivitesByAssignableMultipleCrossData.xhtml" | action="#{activitesByAssignableMultipleCrossData.setLotNotRealise}" | id="SaisieForeCast" | title="#{msgToolTip.activitesPrevisionnellesByCollaborateurCrossData}"> | <f:param name="realise" value="false" /> | <f:param name="lot" value="true" /> | <f:param name="lotLotId" value="#{forfaitHome.lotLotId}" /> | <h:graphicImage value="/img/folder_user.png" /> | </s:Link> | Correct me if I'm wrong but the event order is: 1) instantiate the destination bean 1b) injections 1c) Pass througt the @Create method if there is one 2) execute the "action" method 3) send the GET parameters 4) make the re-direct to display the view Am I right ? In fact, my problem is to use a value passed as a parameter during the @Create annotated method. View the original post : http://www.jboss.com/index.html?module=bb&op=viewtopic&p=4118701#...
