[Alex Tserbo (JIRA)]

    [ https://jira.jboss.org/jira/browse/RF-3986?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=12436663#action_12436663 ] 

Alex Tserbo commented on RF-3986:
---------------------------------

No, the EL-expression passed with "oncomplete" would be evaluated after an AJAX response comes back. The description should be as following: 

"The "oncomplete" attribute is used for passing JavaScript that would be invoked right after the Ajax Response returns back and DOM is updated. It is not recommended to use use "this'" inside the EL-expression, because it will not always point to the component where Ajax request was initiated. "

> I assume there is a bug in the current richfaces-userguide.pdf, section 5.4.5. JavaScript Interactions:
> It says:
> "oncomplete" attribute allows to invoke the JavaScript code right after the Ajax Response is returned back and the DOM tree of the browser is updated. Richfaces registers the code for further invocation of XMLHTTP request object before an Ajax request is sent. This means the code will not be changed during processing of the request on the server if you use JSF EL value binding. Also, you cannot use "this'" inside the code, because it will not point the component where Ajax request was initiated.
> Is this description deprecated or is the implementation in richfaces 3.1.5 wrong?
> sample:
> actionListener="#{mybean.al}"
> oncomplete="#{!empty requestScope['someVar']?'doA();':'doB();'}"
> depending on what I do in my actionListener doA or doB is called.
> Therefore I think the documentation has to be updated.
