Hi, I'm trying to understand how the pages.xml file is used to pass a parameter.
I have the following in my pages.xml file
<pages>
<page view-id="/centerdetail.xhtml" action="#{centerSearch.performSearch(center.centerID)}">
<param name="selectedCenter" value="#{center.centerID}"/>
</page>
</pages>
the code in the page that request the centerdetail.xhtml page is
<h:panelGroup id="centerResultsPanel" rendered="#{basicSearch.researchCenterSearch}">
<h:dataTable id="researchcenterResults" var="center" value="#{searchResultList}" rendered="#{searchResultList.rowCount >0}">
<h:column>
<h:outputLink>
<h:graphicImage url="images/logotype.gif"/>
<h:outputText value="#{center.centerID}"/>
<h:outputText value="#{obj.centerID}"/>
</h:outputLink>
</h:column>
<h:column>
<h:panelGrid id="holder" >
<s:link id="centerName" view="/centerdetail.seam" action="#{centerSearch.performSearch(center)}" value="#{center.displayName}"/>
<h:outputFormat value="#{center.description}"/>
</h:panelGrid>
</h:column>
</h:dataTable>
<h:outputText value="#{messages.zeroresults}" rendered="#{searchResultList.rowCount==0 and basicSearch.researchCenterSearch}" />
</h:panelGroup>
and this performSearch method in my centerSearch bean is as follows
@SuppressWarnings("unchecked")
public String performSearch(ResearchCenter id) {
Query query;
log.debug(" Searching for center by ID ");
log.debug("Center ID: #0", id);
return "success";
}
The center id is being appended to the url but is showing up as null in the server.log file
2006-12-21 14:29:16,468 DEBUG [gov.nih.nci.cagrid.portal.command.CenterSearchBean] Center ID:null
Does anyone know how to pass an object from a selected row in a datatable to a separate bean , ie my searchBean holds the following
@DataModel("searchResultList")
protected List<? extends DomainObject> results;
@DataModelSelection()
protected DomainObject domainObj;
and I want to pass the object of the selected row to a centerBean.
Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you
