[jboss-user] [JBoss Seam] - Workspace/conversation switcher

[jerome_082006]

Hello,

I am building a web application based on Seam 1.1 (latest build from CVS) and Icefaces 1.5.

Basically, the application consists of a main master/detail view panel in a tabbed pane and I would like to be able to create/edit entities in tabs (of the same tabbed pane), each tab having its own conversation.

Ideally, I should be able to use the workspace/conversation switcher. The problem is that with Icefaces, the DOM tree is built statically (no dynamic includes in tabs), which means I have many subviews included in one "main" view (template stack for those who know Icefaces). Hence, my JSF action listeners always have to return null outcomes.

I have used session-scoped components to prototype my application and I have implemented some sort of component switching on tab change events.

Would it be possible to bind a tab to a conversation and do automatic workspace/conversation switching ? 

The Booking application allows me to start new conversations in my browser tabs, would it be possible to do the same in JSF tabbed panels ?

Regards,
Jerome.
