Richfaces within Portlet working but NOT Ajax !
Hey guys !
I'm running into big trouble ! I'm trying to implement richfaces into portlets within the JBoss portal. I already solved the Servlet.service() error by editing the following src file decribed here https://jsfportletbridge.dev.java.net/nonav/issues/showattachment.cgi/8/crt-issue-20.txt.
After that all richfaces features are working except the AJAX features !!
I always get an "A4J not defined" from the IE and the Firefox!
So i tried the solution which the following thread describes:
http://jboss.com/index.html?module=bb&op=viewtopic&t=115538&start=10
But when I'm trying to do this I get the following error message:
javax.portlet.PortletException: Error processing execute lifecycle
So I'll post here the configuration of my working Richfaces-Portlet configuration which will get the "A4J not defined" error in hope someone can help me with that.
Thanks for any kind of input :)
i'm working with
jboss portal 2.6.2 GA bundled
richfaces 3.1.2 GA
jsf-portlet.jar (With Modified File FacesContextFactoryImpl.java and New File ServletContextHandler.java)
commons-digester-1.8.jar and commons-beanutils-1.7.0.jar
My configuration so far is as following:
index.jsp
<%@ taglib uri="http://richfaces.org/a4j" prefix="a4j"%>
<%@ taglib uri="http://richfaces.org/rich" prefix="rich"%>
<%@ taglib uri="http://java.sun.com/jsf/html" prefix="h" %>
<%@ taglib uri="http://java.sun.com/jsf/core" prefix="f" %>
<%@ page import="javax.portlet.*"%>
<%@ taglib uri="http://java.sun.com/portlet" prefix="portlet"%>
<portlet:defineObjects />
<f:view>
<rich:separator height="1" style="10px 0"/>
<h:panelGrid columns="2" width="100%" columnClasses="col">
<h:panelGroup>
This code does not work as expected. The expected echo text does not appear
below even the condition for <code>'renderer'</code> returns <code>true</code>.
Also, the error message does not appear when the length of the text reaches the limit.
</h:panelGroup>
<h:panelGroup>
This code works properly. The <code>h:message</code> is marked for update during
each Ajaxrequest/response. The place for bottom label is reserved with
<code>outputPanel</code> while the component is not rendered.
</h:panelGroup>
<a4j:outputPanel layout="block">
<h:message for="text1" style="color:red" />

<h:inputText id="text1" label="text1" value="#{rsBean.text1}">
<f:validateLength maximum="10"/>
<a4j:support event="onkeyup" reRender="out1" />
</h:inputText>
</h:form>
</a4j:outputPanel>
<h:outputText id="out1" rendered="#{not empty rsBean.text1}" value="Approved Text: #{rsBean.text2}" />
