[Trinidad] Help with Concept of One Page Using Multiple Backing Beans
I have a problem that has proven to be a little difficult.
I am interested in using the pannelTabbed component to provide views of forms.
Also, I would like the forms to use the same "named" backing bean, but have the
instance of that backing bean be different based on the tab selection.
For example, tab1 corresponds to #{managedBean1},
tab2 corresponds to #{managedBean2},
tab3 corresponds to #{managedBean3}
managedBean1 and managedBean3 extend Class BackingBeanA
managedBean2 extends extends Class BackingBeanB
ViewA.jspx relies on an instance of BackingBeanA
ViewB.jspx relies on an instance of BackingBeanB
tabbed.jspx
<tr:panelTabbed id="panelTabbed1">
<tr:showDetailItem text="Tab 1" id="item1">
<f:subview id="v1">
<jsp:include page="/viewA.jspx" flush="true"/>
</f:subview>
</tr:showDetailItem>
<tr:showDetailItem text="Tab 2" id="item2">
<f:subview id="v2">
<jsp:include page="/viewB.jspx" flush="true"/>
</f:subview>
</tr:showDetailItem>
<tr:showDetailItem text="Tab 3" id="item3">
<f:subview id="v3">
<jsp:include page="/viewA.jspx" flush="true"/>
</f:subview>
</tr:showDetailItem>
</tr:panelTabbed>
viewA.jspx
<?xml version='1.0' encoding='windows-1252'?>
<jsp:root xmlns:jsp="http://java.sun.com/JSP/Page"
version="2.0"
xmlns:tr="http://myfaces.apache.org/trinidad"
xmlns:f="http://java.sun.com/jsf/core">
<tr:outputText value="#{someNamedBeanA.name}"
binding="#{someNamedBeanA.outputText1}"/>
<tr:outputText value="#{someNamedBeanA.nestedObjectA.dto.name}"
binding="#
{someNamedBeanA.nestedObjectA.outputText1}"/>
</jsp:root>
viewB.jspx
<?xml version='1.0' encoding='windows-1252'?>
<jsp:root xmlns:jsp="http://java.sun.com/JSP/Page"
version="2.0"
xmlns:tr="http://myfaces.apache.org/trinidad"
xmlns:f="http://java.sun.com/jsf/core">
<tr:outputText value="#{someNamedBeanB.nestedObjectB.dto.otherName}"
binding="#
{someNamedBeanB.nestedObjectB.outputText1}"/>
</jsp:root>
I have tried the aliasBean from tomahawk, with the "hack" to get
bindings to work, but the value binding
someNamedBeanX.nestedObjectX.dto.name fails. I have tried facelets,
and it seems to work for the most part.
However, I discovered a bug in treeTable while using facelets: Setting
the rowsByDepth property causes a
ClassCastException. This sent a bad vibe my way, since we're working
in a pretty serious production environment,
and cannot afford "little" anomalies.
Any help or ideas are much appreciated.

Add three instances of the managed bean in your faces-config.xml file.
<managed-bean>
<managed-bean-name>managedBean1</managed-bean-name>
<managed-bean-class>com.me.manageableBean</managed-bean-class>
<managed-bean-scope>session</managed-bean-scope>
</managed-bean>
<managed-bean>
<managed-bean-name>managedBean2</managed-bean-name>
<managed-bean-class>com.me.manageableBean</managed-bean-class>
<managed-bean-scope>session</managed-bean-scope>
</managed-bean>
<managed-bean>
<managed-bean-name>managedBean3</managed-bean-name>
<managed-bean-class>com.me.manageableBean</managed-bean-class>
<managed-bean-scope>session</managed-bean-scope>

Re: [Trinidad] Help with Concept of One Page Using Multiple Backing Beans
Posted by Adriano Ferraro <ad...@gmail.com>.
I didn't explain the problem well.
So I have a jsf page (call it tabbed.jspx), that has a pannelTabbed
component in it.
Each tab contains an include that includes one of 2 sub-pages.
for example,
tab1
subpage1
tab2
subpage2
tab3
subpage1
tab4
subpage2
subpage1 expects a backing bean named bean1 and subpage2 uses a bean
named bean2.
I need to get subpage1 and subpage2 to use different instances of the
beans with the same names.
The same idea as t:aliasbean:
<tr:showDetailItem text="Tab 1" id="item1">
<t:aliasBeansScope>
<t:aliasBean alias="#{bean1}" value="#{someCustomBean1}">
<jsp:include page="subpage1.jspx" />
</t:aliasBean>
</tr:showDetailItem>
</t:aliasBeansScope>
<tr:showDetailItem text="Tab 2" id="item2">
<t:aliasBeansScope>
<t:aliasBean alias="#{bean2}" value="#{someCustomBean2}">
<jsp:include page="subpage2.jspx" />
</t:aliasBean>
</t:aliasBeansScope>
</tr:showDetailItem>
<tr:showDetailItem text="Tab 3" id="item3">
<t:aliasBeansScope>
<t:aliasBean alias="#{bean1}" value="#{someCustomBean3}">
<jsp:include page="subpage1.jspx" />
</t:aliasBean>
</t:aliasBeansScope>
</tr:showDetailItem>
<tr:showDetailItem text="Tab 4" id="item4">
<t:aliasBeansScope>
<t:aliasBean alias="#{bean2}" value="#{someCustomBean4}">
<jsp:include page="subpage2.jspx" />
</t:aliasBean>
</t:aliasBeansScope>
</tr:showDetailItem>
But since component bindings do not work well with aliasbean, is there
some other solution?
I got it to work with facelets (which are pretty slick I might add),
but I was wondering is there is some pattern that will solve this
without using facelets.
Thanks.
