contextMenu for extendedDataTable breaks after ajax render of
contextMenu
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
Key: RF-13645
URL:
https://issues.jboss.org/browse/RF-13645
Project: RichFaces
Issue Type: Bug
Security Level: Public(Everyone can see)
Components: component-menu
Affects Versions: 4.3.5, 4.3.6
Environment: WIN7 / JBOSS AS 7.1.1
Reporter: Steffen Michel
Priority: Blocker
Labels: regression
Anything that causes an ajax re-render of a contextMenu which is attached to an
extendedDataTable causes the contextMenu to subsequently be broken, triggering a
JavaScript error instead of displaying the menu. The error seems to be this:
{quote}
Cannot call method 'show' of null in menu-base.js (at line 108 there is a call to
this.popup, but popup is null)
{quote}
The reason I need to ajax re-render the context menu is because in my situtation it's
held within a tab panel, and if it doesn't get re-rendered then it stops working after
switching tabs using ajax mode (though it also breaks if the contextMenu is held outside
of the tab panel, so that isn't a potential solution).
I created a stripped down example of my specific situation, with two extended data
tables, each held in a different tab within a tab panel, and one context menu for each
table. Changing tabs will cause the context menu to break without it explicitly being
called in a render list. The same kind of break occurs if the contextMenu is called as
part of any ajax render list:

Item</rich:menuItem>
</rich:contextMenu>
</rich:tab>
</rich:tabPanel>
</h:form>
</h:body>

{code}
And a simple test bean:
{code}
import org.apache.myfaces.extensions.cdi.core.api.scope.conversation.ViewAccessScoped;
import javax.inject.Named;
import java.io.Serializable;
import java.util.ArrayList;import java.util.List;
@Named
@ViewAccessScoped
public class TestBean implements Serializable {
List<String> items = new ArrayList<>();
public TestBean() {
items.add("one");
items.add("two");
items.add("three");
}
public void addItem(){
items.add("another");
}
public List<String> getItems() {
return items;
}
}
{code}
The above test situation works fine in richfaces 4.3.1, 4.3.2, 4.3.3 and 4.3.4, but
breaks when upgraded to 4.3.5.Final.
There was a different bug fixed in 4.3.5 which seems highly related to this, but
opposite, making me wonder if whatever was done there caused this bug instead (but
it's just a guess): RF-11973
