custom dataTable and commandButton
Hi All:
I just subscribed seconds ago. This is exciting. I think that you people are doing great work, and I am so excited for you because you have been accepted by Apache. Way to go.
First off, I am fairly new to JSF. I am researching it for my company to see if it will fit our needs and is ready for us to start using. As a proof of concept I converted one of the pages here to JSF. It was my first page so it took me a little while but it all worked out fine. So now I'm trying to do some custom components to render a table because the JSF DataTable doesn't have the capabilities that we need.
I sent this question to Matthias Wessendorf at the jsf-developers yahoo group and he recommended that I send my question on to you guys/gals. Thanks for taking the time to read my email.
I have a set of 5 custom components that implement the HTML table, tr, th, td, etc tags. I tried using the JSF dataTable but it doesn't support rowspan and colspan, and I don't think that it supports multi line column headers. All of this is a requirement for the pages that we have at work. So I had to come up with my own set of custom tags. Well, here is my problem.
I need to be able to put a commandButton in a column header so that I can implement sorting. My problem is that the command button works under 1 custom tag but not under the one that I need it to work under. Here is what I mean.
This works when the command button is up here.
<cjsf:rptTable tableClass="tableClass" id="rptTableId">
<h:commandButton action="#{allAuthUser.sortAppIdAscButton}" value="A"/>
<cjsf:colHdr>
<cjsf:row>
<cjsf:col colClass="header">
<h:outputText value="User Id"/>
</cjsf:col>
This doesn't work.
<cjsf:rptTable tableClass="tableClass" id="rptTableId">
<cjsf:colHdr>
<cjsf:row>
<cjsf:col colClass="header">
<h:commandButton action="#{allAuthUser.sortAppIdAscButton}" value="A"/>
<h:outputText value="User Id"/>
</cjsf:col>
This is just a portion of my JSP but you can see what I mean. When the commandButton is under the rptTable tag the method in the backing bean gets called. When the commandButton is under the col tag it does not. There are no message, all of the phases execute, no logging
message, it is as if the page works just fine, but the method doesn't get called. So I'm thinking that either I have something messed up in one of my components or renderers, or JSF has a bug in the life cycle or something. I posted this on the Sun forum under the subject "Problem with commandButton in a custom DataTable", but so far no one has responded. What do you think the problem might be, and do you think MyFaces would have the same problem? I've been sticking with the generic JSF for now so that I could see what that does before I try to use a 3rd part implementation. But if MyFaces doesn't have this problem then I'm ready and eager to try it. I really respect the opinion of you guys/gals, so if you could shed any light on this I would appreciate it. Basically this is holding up my work even considering using JSF
because we can't duplicate the reports that we currently do with JSTL, Struts, HTML, etc, without this.
Well, that's it in a nutshell. If you would like for me to post code I will. I just didn't know what to post and I didn't want to make this to long.
Also, do you think that I should send this to the developers list as well?
Thank you for your help.
Thanks,
Ray

German Umlaut Problem
Posted by Werner Punz <we...@gmx.at>.
I have a problem with special chars,
I have a page with a simple form, and an entry
field and whenever I put in special chars which are out of the ascii
scope I get garbage back (the data bean is filled with garbage)
The form basically looks like this:
<h:form id="testin g" >
<h:inputText id="inputText" size="20"
value="#{testingbean.entry}" />
<h:commandLink id="link" action="submit">
<h:outputText value="Submit"/>
</h:commandLink>
</h:form>
And the resulting html is generated with charset iso-8859-1 and
an xform-urlencoded tag
but due to some strange kind of reason the passing of characters
does not work properly and the backend data bean gets not url encoded
chars in whatever format.
Does anybody know where the problem is?

Thank you, I will look into this, that might be the best option.
Btw. does anybody know if there already is a project
which tries to marry JSF and Hibernate sort of?
This combination looks to me like a really good one, with
Hibernate objects being the data beans, a small framework doing the
access control on top of hibernate as a backing bean
and JSF controls, directly bound to the hibernate object as the frontend.
(I am halfway there for an intranet project I am currently doing for my
current employer)
In combination with Spring this might be the best you can get currently.
I don't like the plain JDBC route like Sun suggests particularily,
especially due to the fact that they keep the connection open in their
standard implementation, which is impossible on anything else than a
site with a few users.

DataTable also can take a javax.faces.model.DataModel, so if you create
a DataModel, then you can control when and what to load on an as needed
basis.

Actually caching is a none issue, due to various reasons. Hibernate has
excellent caching itself, and the data operations
are basically performed on plain tables, so access should be fast anyway
(not too many users).
The connection problem indeed is there, but having used
hibernate already a few times, you have to jugde for yourself and keep
the connection time as low as possible, as you said.
The hibernate caching still works well in that case.
The main problem more that I was looking sort of for the best option to
marry hibernate with the datascroller (existing if possible) with the
least work possible. I got several hints and will check them out.

Hi. I am using Hibernate and MyFaces too. As data connections are a rare
resource I try to use them as short as possible. So in the case of a data
table I have a FactoryMethod like
List getItems(String sortColum, boolean ascending);
and
List getItems(String sortColum, boolean ascending, Long pos, Long
fetchsize);
where I open the conection, retrieve the objects, close the connection and
return the result. The tricky part is the caching. I am using different
approaches as it realy depends on the data shown. For an user list shown
as information for other customers it could be not important to see new
users before a half hour, where you can use a asynchrounous cache were the
update depends of time or is triggered by jms or similar. The bad thing
about databases are the limited resources of connections. Once run out of
connections your application will stale as most of the internet users will
try to reload the page which leads to even more load on the database. On
the opposite side, (a)synchronized caches can be a performance killer for
the application servers. So choose your poison *g*
I try to use no cache at all at the beginning of a project, but be
prepared to activate different ones for different views/kind of objects. I
would realy like to use a database cluster or even better a data grid, but

Datascroller question again
Posted by Werner Punz <we...@gmx.at>.
Well, I posted the question a few days ago,
but back then the new list on Apache sort of was
empty, never got an answer. I try to post it again, now that the list
has picked up momentum.
I have following problem.
I want to have a Hibernate backed backend bean which I want
to connect to a datascroller/datatable combination.
The problem I see with the current API is, that it seems to be
either resultset, with a permanent open db connection and
plain jdbc, or load the entire resultset into the ram
and "shove" it into the datatable.
Now both combinations are not exactly what I want, I want
to have the connections not totally open all the time (the framework
will take care of it anyway once not used anymore)
and I want only the visible scope of database objects loaded.
My idea which I have been thinking about would be some kind of proxy
patterned list which is given to the datatable.
The list basically only loads one single page at a time and then closes
the connection but is giving the full size and keeping the page size for
the paging and the page pos.
(Even with the problem that this thing can be altered between
page requests during scroll operations by another user)
But my question is, am I correct with the assumption that writing a
proxy list is the cleanest way to reach my goals, or is there another
solution which might be cleaner and easier to implement (like an already
implemented solution which already does this or an existing hibernate
hook of the myfaces components in CVS?)

Re: custom dataTable and commandButton

I was just trying different things tonight and oh my
gosh, I found a combination that works. If I change
the UIRptTableColHdr class to extend UIComponentBase
instead of HtmlDataTable it worked. Does this help
someone figure out the problem? I don't know if it is
a bug in the RI or if I was just extending the wrong

Re: custom dataTable and commandButton
Posted by Ray Clark <rc...@yahoo.com>.
Ok here goes.
What I have is a set of 5 custom tags to output a
<table> with its associated tags. I've boiled it down
about as far as it can go. The commandButton would go
in the col tag. If it is just in the col tag by
itself, it works fine. If it is in a col tag inside a
row tag it works fine. But if it is in a col tag
inside a row tag inside a colHdr tag, it fails. What
happens is, when it fails, all phases are executed,
but the method isn't called. I haven't include the
tag that outputs the <table> tag and another tag.
They don't seem to make any difference in the
execution. So this is about as trimmed down as I can
make it I think.
I really appreciate your help. Let me know if you
need anything else.

Re: custom dataTable and commandButton
Posted by Ray Clark <rc...@yahoo.com>.
Thanks for the response. I was going to try and trim
down the page and play with moving the commandButton
around to see if it worked some places and not others.
It may be Monday, but I'll send it out as soon as I
can.
Thanks a bunch,
Ray

Thanks for the response. I was going to try and trim
down the page and play with moving the commandButton
around to see if it worked some places and not others.
It may be Monday, but I'll send it out as soon as I
can.
Thanks a bunch,

Re: custom dataTable and commandButton
Posted by Heath Borders <he...@gmail.com>.
Get the page into a state where you're using the fewest number of tags
(so that we have to dig through the least amount of code). Then,
you're going to need to post the all code associated with the custom
tags (your Tag, Component, and Renderer) for each tag.

Re: custom dataTable and commandButton
Posted by Ray Clark <rc...@yahoo.com>.
Does anyone have any ideas on what would cause my
commandButton, that works fine outside my custom tag,
not to invoke its method when it is inside my custom
tag?
I get no message, no logging error, the page looks
like it works fine, all the phases are processed, and
yet it doesn't call my method.
I'll post whatever code you want. I just didn't know
what to post.
Here is the part of my jsp that has the command button
inside my custom tags.
<cjsf:rptTable tableClass="tableClass"
id="rptTableId">
<cjsf:colHdr>
<cjsf:row>
<cjsf:col colClass="header">
<h:commandButton
action="#{allAuthUser.sortAppIdAscButton}" value="A"/>
<h:outputText value="User Id"/>
</cjsf:col>
Thanks,
Ray

Re: custom dataTable and commandButton
Posted by Ray Clark <rc...@yahoo.com>.
Well, I now have my app up and running under myFaces. I had to do some tweeking to get the app to run under myFaces. But it is running now.
I still have the same problem. I can't get the commandButton to invoke the method in the action attribute during the invoke application phase.
I have a set of 5 custom tags that render a table and its associated tags. I needed to do a custom component because the JSF DataTable doesn't support rowspan, colspan, and I think multi line column headers (ie multi tr tags in the thead tag).
The only message that I see is in the log at startup. It says.
session.ManagerBase - Cannot serialize session attribute net.sourceforge.myfaces.application.jsp.JspStateManagerImpl.SERIALIZED_VIEW-/secure/dataentry/allAuthUser.jsp for session 1B0C75CC467BB3B9D2EB116EDD3263BB
java.io.NotSerializableException: javax.faces.application.StateManager$SerilizedView
at java.io.ObjectOutputStream.writeObject0(Unknown Source)
...
Other than that everything seems to be running fine but it just doesn't call my method. Anyone got any ideas?
Thanks,
Ray

The page renders correctly. The problem is that the method for the button is only invoked if I have the button under the rptTable tag. The method doesn't get invoked if I move it anyplace else.

Do your colHdr, row, or col tags have getRendersChildren() set to
true? if so, it is your responsibility to make sure that
h:commandButton is rendered (usually, by calling the encodeBegin,
encodeChildren, encodeEnd methods).
