Extended data table getTableState is not working as expected

[hgk]

Hi All,

I am using RichFaces 3.3.3 Final. I have a menuItem to reset table state. getTableState() is not getting called after reset is invoked. Also not sure why getDiagnosticsList is getting called so many time.

Here is output when Reset is clicked:

GET tableState

getDiagnosticsList

SET tableState

RESET tableState

SET tableState

getDiagnosticsList

getDiagnosticsList

Here is the code:

jsp:

<rich:menuItem submitMode="ajax" value="Reset" action="#{DiagnosticsListPage.resetState}" reRender="diagnosticsList" />

.....

<rich:extendedDataTable value="#{DiagnosticsListPage.diagnosticsList}" id="diagnosticsList" var="diagnostic" tableState="#{DiagnosticsListPage.tableState}" enableContextMenu="false">

Java:

public ArrayList<FileWrapper> getDiagnosticsList() {

        System.out.println("getDiagnosticsList ");

        return this.diagnosticsFiles; }

public void resetState()

    {

        System.out.println("RESET tableState " );

        String tableState = "{\"columnsVisibility\":{},\"columnGroupingState\":{}," +

                "\"columnsSizeState\":{\"checkBoxColumn\":\"10%\",\"filename\":\"30%\"," +

                "\"modified\":\"30%\",\"size\":\"30%\"},\"columnsOrder\":" +

                "[\"checkBoxColumn\",\"filename\",\"modified\",\"size\"]}";

        setTableState(tableState);      

    }

    public void setTableState(String tableState)

    {

        System.out.println("SET tableState ");

        settingsBasic.setStateDiagnosticsList(tableState);

        SettingsBasicDao.save(settingsBasic);

    }

    public String getTableState()

    {

        System.out.println("GET tableState ");

        return settingsBasic.getStateDiagnosticsList();

    }

Hi all,

Is this a bug? Is there a workaround for this?

Thanks,

call resetState() on UIExtendedDataTable instance.

Ilya,

The following code works. But I have to keep DiagnosticsListPage in session scope. There are other issues if binding is ponting to object in session. How can I access UIExtendedDataTable instance from my backing bean without binding to UIExtendedDataTable?

Thanks,

Bindu

<rich:menuItem submitMode="ajax"  action="#{DiagnosticsListPage.resetState}" />
<rich:extendedDataTable binding="#{DiagnosticsListPage.tableComponent}".../>

public void resetState()
    {
        String tableState = "{\"columnsVisibility\":{},\"columnGroupingState\":{}...";
     
        ((UIExtendedDataTable)tableComponent_).resetState();
    }
public void setTableComponent(UIComponent component)
    {
        tableComponent_ = component;
    }
     
    public UIComponent getTableComponent()
    {
        return (tableComponent_);
    }

could pass id as a request parameter and find the table in JSF tree.
