Filter problem in rich:dataTable

[gressho]

Hello,

I just added filterBy attribute to all columns in my dataTable. For a single
column all is working fine, for rich:columns it works only in the last
column!
I'm using the following code:

 <rich:dataTable width="100%"
 value="#{instanceManagement.allInstances}"
 var="instance">
 <rich:column style="font-weight:bold"
 sortBy="#{instance.description}"
 filterBy="#{instance.description}"
 filterEvent="onkeyup">
 <f:facet name="header">
 <h:outputText value="#{message.instanceName}"
 id="header"/>
 </f:facet>
 <h:panelGroup style="float:right">
 <h:commandLink action="#{instanceManagement.load}">
 <f:param name="backTo"
 value="instance"/>
 <h:graphicImage value="/icons/16x16/actions/document-open.png"
 alt="#{message.headerEditInstance}"
 title="#{message.headerEditInstance}"
 style="border:0px; vertical-align:bottom;"/>
 </h:commandLink>
 <h:commandLink action="#{instanceManagement.copy}">
 <h:graphicImage value="/icons/16x16/actions/edit-copy.png"
 alt="#{message.headerCloneInstance}"
 title="#{message.headerCloneInstance}"
 style="border:0px; vertical-align:bottom;"/>
 </h:commandLink>
 <h:commandLink action="#{instanceManagement.delete}"
 onclick="return confirm('#{message.confirmDelete}')"
 style="margin-left:5px">
 <h:graphicImage value="/icons/16x16/actions/edit-delete.png"
 alt="#{message.headerDeleteInstance}"
 title="#{message.headerDeleteInstance}"
 style="border:0px; vertical-align:bottom;"/>
 </h:commandLink>
 </h:panelGroup>
 <h:outputText value="#{instance.description}"/>
 </rich:column>
 <rich:columns value="#{instanceManagement.shownColumns}"
 var="column"
 index="index"
 sortBy="#{instanceManagement.instanceProperties[instance][index].value}"
 filterBy="#{instanceManagement.instanceProperties[instance][index].value}"
 filterEvent="onkeyup">
 <f:facet name="header">
 <h:outputText value="#{column.description}"/>
 </f:facet>
 <h:outputText value="#{instanceManagement.instanceProperties[instance][index].value}"/>
 </rich:columns>
 </rich:dataTable>

There is sorting enabled, too, and is working totally correct.

Thanx

Werner

Please define you use JSP or Facelets?

[gressho]

oh, sorry!

i'm using JBoss Portal 2.6.4, RichFaces 3.2.0.SR1, JBossPortalBridg2 Beta2 and Facelets 1.1.14!
I also tried to use a filter method, but the only parameter of the method
is the object to test. I must know in which column I am to obtain the correct
filter value. Doesn't seem to be such simple...

Best wishes

Werner

Please try to define SortOrder attribute for the columns. It should be also binding likes that you define for SortBy attribute.

In addition:

We found out that we have such problems on earlly version.

Please try RF 3.2.1. I think it should solve the problem.

I'm managing my project with maven and never have included
snapshots. How can I configure that in my pom.xml to automatically use the newest one?

[lmk]

to configure snapshot repository, read 1.4
http://www.jboss.org/file-access/default/members/jbossrichfaces/freezone/docs/devguide/en/faq/faq.html

you have to change jboss snapshot repository, url is not correct:

snapshot url :

http://snapshots.jboss.org/maven2/

maven dependency setting:

<dependency>
 <groupId>org.richfaces.framework</groupId>
 <artifactId>richfaces-api</artifactId>
 <version>[3.2.1-SNAPSHOT,)</version>
 </dependency>

So finally I was able to include a snapshot version, thanks Imk!
But it didn't solve the described problem! Got even worse: on the page
I added the possibility to dynamically add new columns to the table! If
I do this, the filter won't work any more. That worked correct with 3.2.0.SR1
(for the last column).
