rich:dataTable rowclick regression ---------------------------------- Key: RF-12647 URL: https://issues.jboss.org/browse/RF-12647 Project: RichFaces Issue Type: Bug Security Level: Public(Everyone can see) Components: component-tables Affects Versions: 4.3.0.M2 Environment: Win7, JDK7, Glassfish3, Mojarra 2.1.14, SeamFaces, RF 4.x.x Reporter: Fab Mars During my migration from RF 3.3 I found this: Before (with RF 3.3.3): {code:xml} <rich:dataTable id="shippingList" value="#{billingLister.allShippings}" var="shipping"> <a4j:support event="onRowClick" reRender="shippingEditForm"> <a4j:actionparam name="shippingId" value="#{shipping.id}" assignTo="#{shippingEdit.id}"/> </a4j:support> <rich:column> <f:facet name="header"> <h:outputText value="Destination"/> </f:facet> <h:outputText value="#{shipping.destinationCountry.name}" /> </rich:column> <!-- other columns here --> </rich:dataTable> {code} There was nothing really impacting on the migration guide https://community.jboss.org/wiki/RichFacesMigrationGuide33x-4xMigration-C... So I logically did that with RF4.x.x: {code:xml} <rich:dataTable id="shippingList" value="#{billingLister.allShippings}" var="shipping"> <a4j:support event="rowclick" render="shippingEditForm"> <a4j:actionparam name="shippingId" value="#{shipping.id}" assignTo="#{shippingEdit.id}"/> </a4j:support> <rich:column> <f:facet name="header"> <h:outputText value="Destination"/> </f:facet> <h:outputText value="#{shipping.destinationCountry.name}" /> </rich:column> <!-- other columns here --> </rich:dataTable> {code} But the a4j:aja isn't triggered. To start having something that works, one needs to remove the a4j:param and do it straight. {code:xml} <a4j:ajax event="rowclick" render="shippingEditForm" listener="#{shippingEdit.setId(shipping.id)}"/> {code} Not sure this is a regression or not, but wait, here's more: when one clicks on a row with that code, he gets an ArrayIndexOutOfBoundsException because the clientID that's actually passed into UIDataAdapter#invokeOnRow is the id of the dataTable itself. Hence String rowId = clientId.substring(baseId.length() + 1); So...to make it work, you have to actually declare the <a4j:ajax event="rowclick" /> in the <rich:column/> Overall that makes quite a difference between RF 3.3 and RF 4.x. I'd say a regression. Or at least that needs an extra clarification in the documentation and migration guide.
