[jboss-user] [JBoss Seam] - clickable dataTable problem

[asookazian]

So I have a clickable dataTable that's based on a join of two tables.  There is a submit button for each row of the dataTable.  I can't use the @DataModelSelection annotation (commented below) b/c the List does not consist of only one Entity class, it's based on two.

How can I identify which row needs to be updated and get all the necessary data for the 2nd table to be persisted to DB?  1st table is read-only.  sounds like @DataModelSelection is out of the question here (Java generics does not allow me to specify more than one type per Collection).

any help much appreciated, otherwise I will resort to Seam remoting/ajax call onclick of submit button per row...

code snippet from SFSB:

@DataModel
  | 	private List myAuditList;
  | 		
  | 	@DataModelSelection
  | 	//private TblSecurityAuditWorking tblSecurityAuditWorking;
  | 		
  |     @Factory("myAuditList")
  |     public void find()
  |     {
  |     	
  |     	log.info("in find(): user.getUserId() = " + user.getUserId());   	
  |     	log.info("in find(): user.getBillingId() = " + user.getBillingId());
  |     		
  |     	int employeeId;
  |     	
  |     	if (!networkId.equals("")) {   //user entered a networkId from UI to run for another person, so get new guy's billingId
  |     		    		    		    		    		
  |     		List myList = em.createQuery("from User u where u.networkId = :networkId").setParameter("networkId", networkId).getResultList(); 
  |     		User newUser = (User)myList.get(0);
  |     		
  |     		employeeId = newUser.getEmployeeId().intValue();
  |     		    		    		
  |     		myAuditList = em.createQuery("SELECT gem, tsaw "+
  | 					"FROM TblSecurityAuditWorking tsaw, "+
  | 					"GlobalEmployeeMaster gem "+
  | 					"WHERE tsaw.id.siteId = gem.id.siteId "+
  | 					"AND tsaw.id.employeeNumber = gem.id.employeeNumber "+
  | 					"AND tsaw.reportToId = :employeeId")
  | 					.setParameter("employeeId", employeeId)
  | 					.getResultList();
  |     	}
  | }
