a4j components don't work well inside a custom component
--------------------------------------------------------
Key: RF-8594
URL: https://jira.jboss.org/jira/browse/RF-8594
Project: RichFaces
Issue Type: Bug
Security Level: Public (Everyone can see)
Components: component-a4j-core
Affects Versions: 3.3.3.Final
Environment: Windows XP, Firefox 3.6 and IE6
Tomcat 6
Reporter: Fabrice Lucien
When I use a <a4j:function> inside a custom component (with or without facelet), the
ajax request doesn't work well.
When it's used in a page there're no problem, but the same code copy-paste inside
a facelet template for a component for example doesn't work.
Then I tried to create a component without facelet with java code, and I hade the same
behavior.
The code generated is nearly the same.
The first problem I saw when filtering requests is the absence of requests for the
javascript files.
These 3 GET requests are not done:
http://xx/a4j/g/3_3_0.GAorg.ajax4jsf.javascript.AjaxScript
http://xx/a4j/g/3_3_0.GAorg/ajax4jsf/javascript/scripts/form.js
http://xx/a4j/g/3_3_0.GAorg/richfaces/renderkit/html/scripts/skinning.js
To have a woraround I put my custom component on a page using directly a4j.
Then when I have the script file, the POST method was done but there were no server side
effect.
My scenario was the update of an attribute of a backing bean with:
-a4j function and a param
-an input test and a a4j commandButton
I both case when I was able to do the POST for the ajax request, there was no server side
effect.
Here is the content of my web page:
{code}
<body>
<f:view>
<!-- Simple case reproduced in my component-->
<a4j:form>
<h:inputText value="#{headerState.activatedHeaderId}" />
<a4j:commandButton value="Say Hello" />
</a4j:form>
<!-- My component that generates the same code-->
<jtbox:uiUpdater/>
</f:view>
</body>
{code}
Here is the code of the encoding method of the component
{code}
AjaxForm a4jForm = new AjaxForm();
HtmlInputText headerId=new HtmlInputText();
ValueExpression veHeaderId = context.getApplication()
.getExpressionFactory().createValueExpression(
context.getELContext(), "#{headerState.activatedHeaderId}",
HeaderState.class);
headerId.setValueExpression(UIHeader.FAMILY_NAME, veHeaderId);
HtmlAjaxCommandButton headerIdCommand=new HtmlAjaxCommandButton();
headerIdCommand.setValue("update");
a4jForm.getChildren().add(headerId);
a4jForm.getChildren().add(headerIdCommand);
a4jForm.encodeAll(context);
{code}
Here is the code generated when using directly a4j
{code}
