In my JSF tasklist, I use a dynamic list of possible transitions:
<rich:dataTable value="#{task.availableTransitions}" var="transition" >
<h:column>
<s:button action="#{taskList.executeTask(transition.name)}" taskInstance="#{task}"
value="#{transition.name}" propagation="none" />
</h:column>
</rich:dataTable>
The Task should be executed by a generic action method:
@Name("taskList")
public class TaskList {
@StartTask @EndTask
public void executeTask(String transitionName) {
transition.setName(transitionName);
}
}
The transition dataTable is correctly displayed, but when I press the button for one of the transitions, transitionName in executeTask is an empty String. From the docs I understand that the transition.name is resolved after pressing the button. But settings propagation="join" results in a complaint about a running conversation.
Can somebody help me to find a way which works?
Thank you
