Seam-messages demo fails. Does not appear to be invoking fa

[heislord5]

Hi,

When I compile and deploy the seam-messages demo, I get the following error messages:

type Exception report

message

description The server encountered an internal error () that prevented it from fulfilling this request.

exception

javax.servlet.ServletException: Cannot get value for expression '#{messages.rowCount==0}'
javax.faces.webapp.FacesServlet.service(FacesServlet.java:121)
org.jboss.web.tomcat.filters.ReplyHeaderFilter.doFilter(ReplyHeaderFilter.java:96)


root cause

javax.faces.FacesException: Cannot get value for expression '#{messages.rowCount==0}'
org.apache.myfaces.context.servlet.ServletExternalContextImpl.dispatch(ServletExternalContextImpl.java:421)
org.apache.myfaces.application.jsp.JspViewHandlerImpl.renderView(JspViewHandlerImpl.java:234)

javax.faces.webapp.FacesServlet.service(FacesServlet.java:107)
org.jboss.web.tomcat.filters.ReplyHeaderFilter.doFilter(ReplyHeaderFilter.java:96)


note The full stack trace of the root cause is available in the Apache Tomcat/5.5.12 logs.

I haven't changed any of the code. Running JBoss 4.0.4RC1 with EJB3 support and "all" configuration. What's going on?

Thanks

Does not appear to be invoking the factory.

Out of 10 examples, the other nine examples run. This one won't bring up the first page.

looks like this is broken in cvs

Fixed, the problem is that I introduced a new built-in component named "messages" in CVS, and that conflicted with the name of a context variable used in the example.

Can someone think of a better name for the built-in component? It is a Map of i18nized strings. "resourceMap" sounds silly....

Thanks Mr. King!

I've seen a discussion somewhere about the possibility of having annotations organized somehow to scope them within something similar to "packages", like classes.

At some point do you think there will be a way to have a:

@com.mycompany.myannotation

or something similar?

I just realized my question about doesn't really address the above issue but I still like the question.

Annotations *are* scoped!

And so are Seam names. If you have @Name("foo.bar.baz"), you refer to the component as #{foo$bar$baz.property} in the EL.

But I don't want to use scoped names for really commonly used builtin components.

Thanks.
