i try to translate following working jsf code into java code
JSF:
<rich:suggestionbox height="" for="t1" id="sugg1" width="" var="var" immediate="true" suggestionAction="#{Page.suggest}">
<a4j:support event="onsubmit" ajaxSingle="true">
<a4j:actionparam id="param1" value="abc" assignTo="#{Page.suggestid}"/>
</a4j:support>
<rich:column>
<h:outputText value="#{var.value}" />
</rich:column>
</rich:suggestionbox>
Java Code
HtmlSuggestionBox suggest = new HtmlSuggestionBox();
...
HtmlActionParameter myActionParameter = new HtmlActionParameter();
myActionParameter.setValue("abc");
myActionParameter.setId("P42");
log.debug("set assgin to");
FacesContext context = FacesContext.getCurrentInstance();
javax.faces.application.Application application = context
.getApplication();
javax.el.ExpressionFactory ef = application.getExpressionFactory();
javax.el.ValueExpression ve = ef.createValueExpression(context
.getELContext(), "#{Page.suggestid}",
String.class);
myActionParameter.setAssignToBinding( ve);
HtmlAjaxSupport ajaxSupport = new HtmlAjaxSupport();
ajaxSupport.setEvent("onsubmit");
ajaxSupport.setAjaxSingle(true);
ajaxSupport.setId(getID("a4jsupport"));
myActionParameter.setParent(ajaxSupport);
suggest.getFacets().put( ajaxSupport.getId(), ajaxSupport);
any idea why the java code isn't working?
