Entered values in rich:subTable are lost upon validation errors
---------------------------------------------------------------

                 Key: RF-3517
                 URL: http://jira.jboss.com/jira/browse/RF-3517
             Project: RichFaces
          Issue Type: Bug
    Affects Versions: 3.1.4
         Environment: Windows Vista, JBoss 4.0.5, JSF 1.2
            Reporter: Jonck van der Kogel


Given the following sample code:

<rich:dataTable
    value="#{backingBean.holders}" 
    var="holder">
    <f:facet name="header">
        <rich:columnGroup>
            <rich:column>
                <h:outputText value="Test">
            </rich:column>
        </rich:columnGroup>
    </f:facet>
    <rich:column>
        <h:inputText value="#{holder.requiredTest}" required="true" />
    </rich:column>
    <rich:subTable
        value="#{holder}"
        var="holderSubTable">
        <rich:column colspan="1">
            <h:inputText value="#{holderSubTable.test}" />
        </rich:column>
    </rich:subTable>
</rich:dataTable>

When the surrounding form is submitted, the "test" field in the rich:subTable is cleared when a validation error occurs. This is not the expected behavior, normally in JSF when a validation error occurs the entered values remain.

To illustrate this, I rebuilt the above scenario but now placed all fields within the same rich:dataTable like so:

<rich:dataTable
    value="#{backingBean.holders}" 
    var="holder">
    <f:facet name="header">
        <rich:columnGroup>
            <rich:column>
                <h:outputText value="Test">
            </rich:column>
            <rich:column>
                <h:outputText value="Test2">
            </rich:column>
        </rich:columnGroup>
    </f:facet>
    <rich:column>
        <h:inputText value="#{holder.requiredTest}" required="true" />
    </rich:column>
    <rich:column>
        <h:inputText value="#{holder.test}" />
    </rich:column>
</rich:dataTable>

In this case when the form is submitted and a validation error occurs the "test" field is not cleared, as expected.
