Working or replacing UIInclude (or Include) in custom compon

[sebdoncker]

Hi all,

I try to use an UIInclude or an Include in a custom component. The component is rendered but not the xhtml attached with the viewId attribute...

Here is my code to insert the Include :

Include include = new Include();
include.setId("test_include");
include.setViewId("test.xhtml");
parent.getChildren().add(include);
include.setParent(parent);

The

<span id="test_include"></span>

is well created but not its content.

I have try to do same thing in xhtml :

<a4j:include id="test_include" viewId="text.xhtml"/>

And this work perfectly.

Does anybody know how to work with Include in custom component or know another way to include a xhtml page into a component ?

Thanks in advance,
seb

I'm having the same problem - did you ever find a solution?

Hi,

No I don't find a solution for this. I change my way to do what I wnated to do at this moment.

I tried to make custom components and to play with faces context for different things and that results in various problems :
- no html
- html but no context
- html and context at render time but the context was lost when we click on a commandButton after that...

So, I done all of this in another way :-(

Sorry to not be able to help you.

Seb,

You can use dynamic viewId, e.g.

<a4j:include viewId="#{bean.viewId}">

Maybe that will solve the problem?

Thanks for your answer.

I have used this tag but what I tried to do is to make my own component like <a4j:include> or <ui:include> but I want to put some extra variables in the context before to render the included view.

I tried to have these variables available in the view with EL.

I don't know if I am very clear.

By example, I tried to have these :

<custom:include viewId="foo.xhtml" context="#{aBean.aProperty}"/>

then in the foo.xhtml page, I want to access the context by typing code like that :

<h:outputText value="#{context.aProperty}"/>

This way, I can have a "parametrized" xhtml view.

Anyway, thank you for your help.
