rendered attribute of <rich:dataTable>

[elisei]

Hi,

I experience some problems with the <rich:datatable> component. When I set rendered="#{false}" the component is rendered and no rows are shown. But it actually ignores that option.

Did anyone else experience the same problem?

i can't fully understand what you mean.

rendered value should be for a data object,not true/false

I understand it like the doc says:

Library: http://richfaces.org/rich (http://richfaces.org/rich)

Tag: dataTable

rendered

Flag indicating whether or not this component should be rendered (during Render Response Phase), or processed on any subsequent form submit. The default value for this property is true.

So, a true or false flag. I use exactly the same flag on columns and that works.

elisei you get the docs fine.

Here is what I quickly checked :

<h:form>

                    <h:selectBooleanCheckbox id="ch">

                              <a4j:ajax render="table" />

                    </h:selectBooleanCheckbox>

          </h:form>

          <a4j:outputPanel id="table">

                    <rich:dataTable rendered="#{rich:findComponent('ch').value}"

                              width="700" var="record" value="#{reportBean.expReport.records}">

...

and it works fine. table getting completelly hidden and shown while changing the checkbox state.
