[jira] Commented: (MYFACES-921) NullPointerException using inputSuggestAjax with Facelets

["Mike Kienenberger (JIRA)" <de...@myfaces.apache.org>]

    [ http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MYFACES-921?page=comments#action_12360216 ] 

Mike Kienenberger commented on MYFACES-921:
-------------------------------------------

I haven't looked at InputSuggestAjax, but my guess is that suggestedItemsMethod takes a method binding.   You'll need to create a Facelets tag handler to assign a method binding to the component since it's not possible for facelets to determine that information automatically (the method signature can vary even if the attribute name is known).  It's pretty simple to do this.

You can find an example of creating such a tag handler for the GraphicImageDynamic component at this url:

http://wiki.java.net/bin/view/Projects/FaceletsTaglibsMyfacesSandbox

Please update that wiki with an example for InputSuggestAjax after you get it working.

> The following exception is generated using inputSuggestAjax with Facelets:
> 005-12-09 11:08:58,776 ERROR [localhost].[/webmail].[FacesServlet]:253 http-8080-Processor25  -> Servlet.service() for servlet FacesServlet threw exception
> java.lang.NullPointerException
> 	at org.apache.myfaces.custom.inputsuggestajax.InputSuggestAjaxRenderer.encodeAjax(InputSuggestAjaxRenderer.java:209)
> It appears that InputSuggestAjaxTag uses its setSuggestedItemsMethodProperty method to set the suggestedItemsMethod property in the component, rather than this being carried out by the component itself.
