Question about looping in JSF

[parki]

Hello.

Bit of a newbie question, this, but hoping someone can help out.

Let's say I have a List objects and each Foo has a 'name' and 'description' attribute. I can dump this information in a table easily:

<h:dataTable value="#{foobars.all}" var="f">
<h:column>
<h:outputText value="#{f.name} #{f.description}"></h:outputText>
</h:column>
</h:dataTable>

The above works great. I'm a bit stumped on the best way to output the same information in a rich panel bar. I want to achieve something like:

<rich:panelBar value="#{foobars.all}" var="f">
<rich:panelBarItem label="#{f.name}">#{f.description}</rich:panelBarItem>
</rich:panelBar>

but this doesn't work. In the case of the dataTable, it implicitly loops over the values in the 'value' attribute, but no such luck with panelBar.

I guess I need to do the looping in JSP-speak, but wondering what the "proper" way would be to do something like this.

Any help is appreciated.

Cheers,

you need something like

<rich:panelBar label="Capitals">
 <c:forEach items="#{capitalsBean.capitals}" var="cap">
 <rich:panelBarItem label="#{cap.name}">
 <h:outputText value="#{cap.state}"></h:outputText>
 <h:graphicImage value="#{cap.stateFlag}"></h:graphicImage>
 </rich:panelBarItem>
 </c:forEach>
 </rich:panelBar>
