Support wildcards in pages.xml from-action
------------------------------------------
Key: JBSEAM-2481
URL:
http://jira.jboss.com/jira/browse/JBSEAM-2481
Project: JBoss Seam
Issue Type: Feature Request
Components: Core
Affects Versions: 2.0.1.CR1
Reporter: Mark Michalek
Priority: Minor
Support wildcards in the from-action in pages.xml. Forcing pages.xml to be aware of
specific variable names in actions makes from-actions brittle.
For example:
pages.xml:
<navigation from-action="#{logoEditor.editLogo(*)}">
<redirect view-id="/edit.xhtml"/>
</navigation>
logoPage.xhtml:
<h:commandLink value="LinkOne"
action="#{logoEditor.editLogo(goodLogo)}"/>
<h:commandLink value="LinkTwo"
action="#{logoEditor.editLogo(badLogo)}"/>
For this example, both LinkOne and LinkTwo would navigate to /edit.xhtml because both of
the actions match the #{logoEditor.editLogo(*)} pattern.
In other words, the specific variable names on an action don't matter when the
navigation is evaluated because pages.xml specifies a wildcard (*) for the parameters.
