[jboss-user] [JBoss Seam] - need help passing UI params to SFSB

[asookazian]

so I tried @RequestParameter with pages.xml config and failed (value was not coming thru, so it was null).

now I'm trying the "regular" JSF way per pg. 292 of the Geary/horstmann 2nd edition.

Anything wrong with the following code?  this doesn't work either (I'm viewing the params object values in the eclipse debugger and it's null):

<h:form id="mainForm">     	    		 
  | 	    		<h:outputText value="No Direct Reports" rendered="#{myAuditList != null and myAuditList.rowCount==0}"/>
  | 			 	<h:dataTable id="dataTable1" value="#{myAuditList}" var="myRow" rendered="#{myAuditList != null and myAuditList.rowCount > 0}"
  | 			 				 styleClass="dataTable" rowClasses="oddRow, evenRow" frame="hsides">
  | 			 	
  | 		    		<h:column>
  | 			    		<f:facet name="header">Employee Name</f:facet>	    		
  | 			    		
  | 			    		<!-- siteId and employeeNumber hidden fields are used for all radio buttons -->
  | 			    		<h:outputText id="employeeName" value="#{myRow[0].id.employeeName}"/>		 
  | 			    		<h:inputHidden id="employeeNameHidden" value="#{myRow[0].id.employeeName}"/>  		    		
  | 			    		<h:inputHidden id="siteId" value="#{myRow[0].id.siteId}"/> 		
  | 			    		<h:inputHidden id="employeeNumber" value="#{myRow[0].id.employeeNumber}"/>
  | 		    		</h:column>
  | 		    		
  | 		    		<h:column>
  | 			    		<f:facet name="header">SiteId</f:facet>	    		
  | 			    		
  | 			    		<h:outputText value="#{myRow[0].id.siteId}"/>		   		    		
  | 		    		</h:column>
  | 		    		
  | 		    		<h:column>
  | 			    		<f:facet name="header">EmployeeNumber</f:facet>	    		
  | 			    		
  | 			    		<h:outputText value="#{myRow[0].id.employeeNumber}"/>		   		    		
  | 		    		</h:column>
  | 		    		
  | 			    	<h:column>
  | 		    			<f:facet name="header">Account Approved?</f:facet>
  | 		    			
  | 		    			<h:selectOneRadio id="accountApprovedRB" value="#{myRow[1].icomsAccountApproved}" onclick="processNote(this, #{myAuditList.getRowIndex()}, 'accountApproved');checkForSubmit(#{myAuditList.getRowIndex()})">  
  | 							<f:selectItems value="#{securityAuditAction.securityAuditRadioButtons}" />
  | 						</h:selectOneRadio>	    	
  | 						<h:graphicImage id="acctGraphic" value="/img/icon_edit.gif" onclick="editNote(#{myAuditList.getRowIndex()}, 'accountApproved');" style="visibility:hidden"/>		
  | 		    		</h:column>
  | 		    			    		
  | 		    		<h:column>
  | 		    			<f:facet name="header">Security Level Approved?</f:facet>
  | 		    			<h:selectOneRadio id="securityLevelApprovedRB" value="#{myRow[1].securityLevelApproved}" onclick="processNote(this, #{myAuditList.getRowIndex()}, 'secLevelApproved');checkForSubmit(#{myAuditList.getRowIndex()})">  
  | 							<f:selectItems value="#{securityAuditAction.securityAuditRadioButtons}" />
  | 						</h:selectOneRadio>	
  | 						<h:graphicImage id="securityLevelGraphic" value="/img/icon_edit.gif" onclick="editNote(#{myAuditList.getRowIndex()}, 'secLevelApproved');" style="visibility:hidden"/>		   			
  | 		    		</h:column>
  | 		    		
  | 		    		<h:column>
  | 		    			<f:facet name="header">Adjustment Limit Approved?</f:facet>
  | 		    			<h:selectOneRadio id="adjustmentLimitApprovedRB" value="#{myRow[1].adjustmentLimitApproved}" onclick="processNote(this, #{myAuditList.getRowIndex()}, 'adjLimitApproved');checkForSubmit(#{myAuditList.getRowIndex()})">  
  | 							<f:selectItems value="#{securityAuditAction.securityAuditRadioButtons}" />
  | 						</h:selectOneRadio>	  
  | 						<h:graphicImage id="adjLimitGraphic" value="/img/icon_edit.gif" onclick="editNote(#{myAuditList.getRowIndex()}, 'adjLimitApproved');" style="visibility:hidden"/>		 			
  | 		    		</h:column>	    		
  | 		    		
  | 		    		<h:column>
  | 		    			<h:commandButton id="submitEmployee" value="Submit" action="#{securityAuditAction.submit}" style="visibility:hidden">
  | 		    				<f:param name="securityAuditRowNum" value="#{myAuditList.getRowIndex()}"/>
  | 		    			</h:commandButton>		    			
  | 		    		</h:column>
  | 		    	</h:dataTable>
  | 		    		    	
  | 		</h:form>

SFSB:

public void submit() {
  |     	
  |     	//check to see if there are any notes for each radio button for this emploee/row
  |     	//then upddate/insert accordingly
  |     	
  |     	//TO DO: use @RequestParameter injection instead of facescontext...
  |     	FacesContext context = FacesContext.getCurrentInstance();
  |     	Map<String, String> params = context.getExternalContext().getRequestParameterMap();
  |     	int rowNum = Integer.parseInt(params.get("securityAuditRowNum")==null?"":params.get("securityAuditRowNum"));
  |     	
  |     	for (int i = 0; i < 3; i++) {
  |     		TblSecurityAuditNote note = myNotes[rowNum];
  |     		if (note != null) {
  |     			log.info("myNotes["+rowNum+"]["+i+"]: noteText = " + note.getNoteText());
  |     			//em.persist(myNotes[rowNum]);
  |     		}
  |     	}
  | }

seems to me this should be very straightforward...  I even hard-coded the value like:

<f:param name="securityAuditRowNum" value="bigmomma"/>

value for params map was null in debugger variables...

do you HAVE to set some config code in the pages.xml?  if so, the book didn't mention anything about that as far as managed bean JSF configurations for request params passing...
