modalPanel - Will not set property on backing bean...

[indyjones]

JBoss 4.2.0
Seam 2.0.0BETA1
Java 1.6

Trying to use the Modal Panel to create a new User. On my Backing bean, UserManager, I have a property 'newUser'. This property does not get set when the "Save" button is pressed on the Modal panel.

I am new, so its probably something dumb i did...

I think you should read some docs from th negining.. After a minute reading:

1) nested forms not alowed
2) Why did you need ajax-ed form?
3) why a4j action controls inside ajax-ed form?

[indyjones]

ok....

1 - I got rid of the nested form
2 - Got rid of all ajax forms
3 - Again, I got rid of the ajax forms...

Now i get this...

11:59:21,796 WARN [lifecycle] /adminUser.xhtml @135,82 value="#{usermanager.newUser.username}": Target Unreachable, 'newUser' returned null on 'org.javassist.tmp.java.lang.Object_$$_javassist_7'

For some reason, the newUser property is just not getting set when I use the modalPanel.

Here is my new code on the modalPanel....

Simple getter/setter for newUser on usermanager bean...

Again, I am new to Seam but know JSF. To me, when I hit the "Save" button, the output text fields should set properties on the newUser property. But, the newUser property is "Unreachable"?

This only happens on the ModalPanel...

thanks indy

Basically, the setNewUser() method on the UserManager Bean is never called when the "Save" button is pressed on the modalPanel...

Why is that? What have I done wrong?

The getNewUser() method is called just fine...

Thanks

What and when suppose to call setNewUser()? It is not clear from your code snipped.

[indyjones]

I thought setNewUser() would be called when the form on the modalPanel was submitted. Is that not correct? How should I call setNewUser()?
