add more details regarding @End(beforeRedirect=true) in Seam ref doc -------------------------------------------------------------------- Key: JBSEAM-4296 URL: https://jira.jboss.org/jira/browse/JBSEAM-4296 Project: Seam Issue Type: Feature Request Components: Documentation Issues Affects Versions: 2.1.2.GA Environment: Windows XP JBoss EAP 4.3 JBDS 2.0.0.CR2 Reporter: asookazian Priority: Minor Attachments: ApplicationMetaData.java, pages.xml, TestApplicationMetaData.xhtml, TestApplicationMetaDataAction.java Original Estimate: 30 minutes Remaining Estimate: 30 minutes Need to specify that a return type of String or proper configuration in pages.xml is required in order for @End(beforeRedirect=true) to work properly. In my use case, I am deleting a row from my dataTable and after redirect to the same JSF page (xhtml), the row still displayed in the dataTable even though the manual flush of SMPC was successful in my save() method and the delete tx was successful in the database. Here is the verbage for @End in Seam ref doc 2.1.2.GA, section 31.4. Annotations for context demarcation: "beforeRedirect — by default, the conversation will not actually be destroyed until after any redirect has occurred. Setting beforeRedirect=true specifies that the conversation should be destroyed at the end of the current request, and that the redirect will be processed in a new temporary conversation context." Recommended modification: "beforeRedirect — by default, the conversation will not actually be destroyed until after any redirect has occurred. Setting beforeRedirect=true specifies that the conversation should be destroyed at the end of the current request, and that the redirect will be processed in a new temporary conversation context. Please return a String which specifies the JSF page you wish to have JSF redirect to (e.g. '/foo.xhtml'). Otherwise, if you wish to return void, please configure your pages.xml file accordingly to redirect to the appropriate page. Here is an example to use with return type void: <page view-id="/foo.xhtml"> <navigation from-action="#{bar.save}"> <redirect view-id="/foo.xhtml"/> </navigation> </page> If you do not do one of the above, you may experienced unwanted behavior when using @End(beforeRedirect=true). This means that the LRC will be demoted to temporary conversation and the conversation will survive the redirect and thus your @Factory method will not get called again. You will then need to set the List to null manually in your code in order to force the @Factory method to re-execute after redirect."
