DropListener doesn't work when using <rich:extendedDataTable

[alaal]

Hi everyone:
I have one drag-drop issue on <rich:extendedDataTable>, i'm using MyFaces 1.2.6, Facelet 1.1.14, Richfaces 3.3.0 here's my codes

allUsers.xhtml:

<!-- extendedDataTable -->
<rich:extendedDataTable value="#{allUser.allUsersModel}" var="user" id="allUser" width="440px"
 rows="10" sortMode="#allUser.sortMode}" selectionMode="#{allUser.selectionMode}">
 <rich:column label="User Name" sortable="true" sortBy="#{user.userName}"
 filterBy="#{user.userName}" filterEvent="onkeyup">
 <f:facet name="header">
 <h:outputText value="User Name" />
 </f:facet>
 <rich:dragSupport dragIndicator=":indicator" dragType="user" dragValue="#{user}">
 <rich:dndParam name="label" value="#{user.userName}" />
 </rich:dragSupport>
 <h:outputText value="#{user.userName}" />
 </rich:column>
</rich:extendedDataTable>
<!-- drop zone -->
<rich:panel styleClass="dropTargetPanel">
 <f:facet name="header">
 <h:outputText value="users" />
 </f:facet>
 <rich:dropSupport id="user" acceptedTypes="user" dropValue="user"
 dropListener="#{eventBean.processDrop}">
 </rich:dropSupport>
</rich:panel>

back bean

 private ExtendedTableDataModel<UserInterface> mAllUsersModel;
 private List<UserInterface> mAllUsersList = null;

 public ExtendedTableDataModel<UserInterface> getAllUsersModel()
 {
 mAllUsersList = UserManager.getInstance().getLatestUserInfo();
 mAllUsersModel = new ExtendedTableDataModel<UserInterface>(
 new DataProvider<UserInterface>()
 {
 private static final long serialVersionUID = 5054087821033164847L;

 public UserInterface getItemByKey(Object key)
 {
 for (UserInterface c : mAllUsersList)
 {
 if (key.equals(getKey(c)))
 {
 return c;
 }
 }
 return null;
 }
 public List<UserInterface> getItemsByRange(int firstRow, int endRow)
 {
 return mAllUsersList.subList(firstRow, endRow);
 }
 public Object getKey(UserInterface item)
 {
 return item.getUserCode();
 }

 public int getRowCount()
 {
 return mAllUsersList.size();
 }
 });
 }

 public List<UserInterface> getAllUsersList()
 {
 return mAllUsersList;
 }

EventBean:

public class EventBean implements DropListener {
...
public void processDrop(DropEvent dropEvent) {
 Dropzone dropzone = (Dropzone) dropEvent.getComponent();
 }
...

}

extendedDataTable is value binded on mAllUsersModel which is a instance of ExtendedTableDataModel,
when i drop object on drop-zone , method processDrop(DropEvent dropEvent) on EventBean havn't been called
, if ExtendedTableDataModel is binded on mAllUsersList which is a List and use rich:dataTable , everyting goes well

i'm really appreciate if anyone could tell me what's the problem, thanks

<rich:extendedDataTable> doesn't surport drag-drop operation?

[ilya_shaikovsky]

please check with phaseTracker the lifecycle execution for the drop operation.
http://www.jsftutorials.net/faces-config/phaseTracker.html

extended table has no limitations for dnd operations.

hi ilya_shaikovsky:
thank you for your replay , but in this issue , EventBean have even not be initialized, so phaseTracker doesn't works
if it works , logs:

2009-5-23 10:13:50 org.apache.myfaces.config.annotation.TomcatAnnotationLifecycleProvider newInstance
info: Creating instance of web.backbean.stock.AllUserBack
2009-5-23 10:14:25 org.apache.myfaces.config.annotation.TomcatAnnotationLifecycleProvider newInstance
info: Creating instance of web.backbean.stock.EventBean

but if i use <rich:extendedDataTable> i can't see the log for Creating instance of web.backbean.stock.EventBean

I have exactly the same problem.

The Drop-Event is not fired if my extendedDataTable uses an ExtendedTableDataModel as value.

In this case, the client id of my extendedDataTable cells is generated based on to the getKey() Method of DataProvider with the consequence, that Drag and Drop does not work any more.

If extendedDataTable uses some list as value, the Drop-Event is fired and everything works.

Is this a known richfaces bug??
