ajaxKeys example

[svenhassel]

This sample code doesn't work for me.
Could somebody help me to fix it? my try's weren't successful...

<table>
 <a4j:repeat value="#{repeatBean.numbers}" var="rec" rowKeyVar="rowIndex" ajaxKeys="#{repeatBean.rowsToUpdate}">
 <tr>
 <td width="20px">
 <h:outputText id="num" value="#{rec.number}" />
 </td>
 <td>
 <a4j:commandLink value="-" reRender="num" actionListener="#{repeatBean.decrease}">
 <a4j:actionparam name="rowIndex" value="#{rowIndex}"
 assignTo="#{repeatBean.updatedRow}" />
 </a4j:commandLink>
 /
 <a4j:commandLink value="+" reRender="num" actionListener="#{repeatBean.increase}">
 <a4j:actionparam name="rowIndex" value="#{rowIndex}"
 assignTo="#{repeatBean.updatedRow}" />
 </a4j:commandLink>
 </td>
 </tr>
 </a4j:repeat>
</table>

public class RepeatBean {

 rowsToUpdate = new HashSet<Integer>();
 updatedRow = 0;
 }

 public List<NumberBean> getNumbers() {
 return numbers;
 }

 public void setNumbers(List<NumberBean> numbers) {
 this.numbers = numbers;
 }

 public Set<Integer> getRowsToUpdate() {

 }

 }

 this.updatedRow = updatedRow;

 }

 rowsToUpdate.add(updatedRow);
 }

}

Hi,

This works for me almost correct - the only problem I see is that "actionListener" is called after a4j:actionparam and wrong rows are sometimes updated. That's JSF issue, use "action" instead.

Thanks for that!
The other thing is that I declared repeatBean in 'request' scope instead of 'session' one...
