[jira] Commented: (MYFACES-3012) Allow f:param for

["Jakob Korherr (JIRA)" <de...@myfaces.apache.org>]

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MYFACES-3012?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=12979018#action_12979018 ] 

Jakob Korherr commented on MYFACES-3012:
----------------------------------------

I am not sure if this really »should« work. At least I could not find any documentation about it in the spec.

IMO it is clear that this should work for UICommand components, because f:param is associated with the command that this component triggers. But I don't know if this should be true for input components also, because on a non-ajax JSF request this is also not supported by input components.

However, looking at the javascript spec of jsf.ajax.request(source, event, options) I found the following:

options
    The set of available options that can be sent as request parameters to control client and/or server side request processing. Acceptable name/value pair options are:
    name 	value
    execute 	space seperated list of client identifiers
    render 	space seperated list of client identifiers
    onevent 	function to callback for event
    onerror 	function to callback for error
    params 	object containing parameters to include in the request
    The options argument is optional.

--> you are able to specify custom params here, so why shouldn't it work via the JSF tags f:param + f:ajax?

Thus IMO we should ask the expert group about the expected behavior before committing the patch. However, I think the behavior you're describing is NOT expected in JSF 2.0 and 2.1, but it might be a cool feature for JSF 2.2.

Furthermore it could support something like this:

<f:ajax>
    <f:param name="param1" value="value1" />
</f:ajax>

I'll write a mail to jsr-314-open about this!
