CA should recognize the object type when using generics in rich:dataTable value ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Key: JBIDE-4903 URL: https://jira.jboss.org/jira/browse/JBIDE-4903 Project: Tools (JBoss Tools) Issue Type: Feature Request Components: jsp/jsf/xml source editing Affects Versions: 3.1.0.M2 Reporter: Julien Kronegg Priority: Minor When having a rich:dataTable whose value is a List of objects (saying List<User>), the suggestion completion (aka CA) is done on the var attribute and works fine: <rich:dataTable value="#{myBean.userList}" var="_user"> <rich:column> <h:outputText value="#{_user.name}" /> <!-- CA is done correctly on the name property --> </rich:column> </rich:dataTable> However, when having a generic List of objects, CA does not work. This occurs for example when converting a Set<User> to a List<User> to provide to the dataTable (due to JSF restrictions to work on List and not on Set) if the convert function uses generics: @Name("jsfUtils") public class JsfUtils { public <T> List<T> asList(Set<T> set) { return new ArrayList<T>(set); } } <rich:dataTable value="#{jsfUtils.asList(myBean.userSet)}" var="_user"> <rich:column> <h:outputText value="#{_user.name}" /> <!-- CA does not work on the name property --> </rich:column> </rich:dataTable> It would be nice if the type <T> is recognized as <User> by transitivity. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - If you think it was sent incorrectly contact one of the administrators: https://jira.jboss.org/jira/secure/Administrators.jspa - For more information on JIRA, see: http://www.atlassian.com/software/jira
