I try to edit a datable built from a list of String
This code does not work (silently without an Exception):
<rich:dataTable
value="#{test.listString}"
var="string"
>
<h:column>
<h:inputText value="#{string}" />
</h:column>
</rich:dataTable>
Where listString is a List of String
Probably the EL expression #{string} is not a l-value or the string is not mutable.
But this code works perfectly well:
<rich:dataTable
value="#{test.listString}"
rowKeyVar="key"
>
<h:column>
<h:inputText value="#{test.listString[key]}" />
</h:column>
</rich:dataTable>
With this trick I can edit directly a list of String obtained from a bean. Before having discovered this trick I had to build a list of rows, every row containing one String.
May be this trick can be useful for somebody
