a4j:include - FacesContext.getCurrentInstance().getViewRoot().getViewId() isn't always correct ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Key: RF-6746 URL: https://jira.jboss.org/jira/browse/RF-6746 Project: RichFaces Issue Type: Bug Reporter: David Schlotfeldt Assignee: Alexander Smirnov Fix For: 3.3.2.GA When a request is made by from inside a a4j:include component UIInclude will set the ViewIdHolder to it self. It does this to ensure FacesContext.getCurrentInstance().getViewRoot().getViewId() returns the viewId of the a4j:include. Everything works fine if you only need to access the viewId when its already rendered and its posting back. If you, as I am, change the viewId of the UIInclude (the UIInclude is bound to a property of a managed bean), when the page is rendered back it renders the new "view" assigned to the UIInclude. When its rendered any manage-bean used from inside the a4j:include will see the viewId as the "outter view" not the view assigned to the a4j:include. I believe the simplest and best solution easiest solution is when rendering the children of uiinclude to: --- AjaxContext ajaxContext = AjaxContext.getCurrentInstance(context); ViewIdHolder viewIdHolder = ajaxContext.getViewIdHolder(); // Store reference to current ajaxContext.setViewIdHolder(this); // This is UIInclude // render children here... ajaxContext.setViewIdHolder(viewIdHolder ); // Put previous back ---
