Outjected @DataModelSelection value lagging?

[mail.micke]

Hi

Not sure what I'm doing wrong, but the outjected value for a data model selection is lagging for me.
By lagging I mean that if I click one row and then another row, the outjected datamodel selection after the second row click is the object for the first click.

But if I get the value via a getter on the backing bean I get the correct object after the second click.

Anyone have any ideas of what is going on (I'm new to seam ).

Configuration:
myfaces 1.1.5
facelets 1.2
seam 1.2.1.GA
tomcat 5

Managed bean code:

@Name("riskAddonBacking")
@Scope( ScopeType.CONVERSATION)
public class CountryRiskAddonBacking implements Serializable{

 /**
 *
 */
 private static final long serialVersionUID = 1L;

 @DataModel
 private List<CountryRiskAddonBean> searchResults;

 @DataModelSelection("searchResults")
 @Out(required=false)
 private CountryRiskAddonBean selectedItem;



 private String searchPattern;

 @Begin(pageflow="countryaddon")
 public void startPageFlow(){

 }

 public String performSearch(){

 int nbrHits = RandomUtils.nextInt()%10;
 List<CountryRiskAddonBean> tmpList = new ArrayList<CountryRiskAddonBean>(nbrHits);
 for(int i=0; i<nbrHits; i++ ){
 CountryRiskAddonBean cab = new CountryRiskAddonBean();
 cab.setTicketNumber("RSK-" + (RandomUtils.nextInt()%10000) );
 cab.setCptyName("CptyXYZ");
 cab.setCountryOfRisk("SWE");
 tmpList.add( cab );
 }
 searchResults = tmpList;

 return null;
 }

 public String save(){
 System.out.println("SAAAAAAVVVVVVIIIIIIIIINNNNNNNNGGGGGGGG to db");

 return "";
 }

 public String getSearchPattern() {
 return searchPattern;
 }

 public void setSearchPattern(String searchPattern) {
 this.searchPattern = searchPattern;
 }

 public CountryRiskAddonBean getSelectedItem() {
 return selectedItem;
 }

 public void setSelectedItem(CountryRiskAddonBean selectedItem) {
 this.selectedItem = selectedItem;
 }

}

xhtml code:

Myfaces are buggy, I had similar problems with it lately. Try switching to the JSF RI, see if the problem goes away.

Just tried with latest jsf 1.2_04 but the problem remains.

Suggestions?

[asavitsky]

How do you select your items? Via the s:link that's labeled "Refresh"? s:link doesn't submit the form, so I doubt it will work for row selection... try h:commandLink instead (I pointed mine to a blank method in the backing bean)

[mail.micke]

Just tried with the commandLink and commandButton and using a dummy action string in the action attribute, that didn't work.

Then read that you used a blank action method, and tried that which works :) (when join on the current conversation).

I think that it is a bit of a shame that I can't use normal Strings for the action attribute which makes use of the defined pageflow I've setup :( .


Thanks alot for the pointers,
Mike
