from-action "equals" requires a textual match not a semantical --------------------------------------------------------------- Key: JBSEAM-2362 URL: http://jira.jboss.com/jira/browse/JBSEAM-2362 Project: JBoss Seam Issue Type: Feature Request Components: Core, JSF Integration Affects Versions: 2.0.0.GA Reporter: koen handekyn in my facelets page i'm referring to an action as " backinBean['persist'] " ( where backingBean is a facelet tag parameter that has the value accountHome ) in pages.xml one needs to use the same litteral string within example from-action, ie DOES NOT WORK <navigation from-action="#{accountHome.persist}"> <end-conversation /> <redirect view-id="/up/admin/accountList.xhtml" /> </navigation> DOES WORK <navigation from-action="#{backingBean['persist']}"> <end-conversation /> <redirect view-id="/up/admin/accountList.xhtml" /> </navigation> this is very weird to understand from within the pages.xml as this backingBean variable does not have any specific meaning in the context. i propose that the "EQUALS" for from-action should be performed on ' evaluated EL expressions ' ( the actual method pointer on the class ).
