Manage a clean event for the fileupload component in Richfaces 4.1

[sviluppatorefico]

Hi... I'm triing to manage the deleting of an item with the fileUpoad component in Richfaces 4.1. Here the my example:

  <rich:fileUpload fileUploadListener="#{fileUpload.listener}"

  addLabel="Click here" maxFilesQuantity="2"

  acceptedTypes="bmp,gif,jpg">

       <a4j:ajax event="uploadcomplete" execute="@none"

                     render="myPanel" />

       <a4j:ajax event="clear"

                     listener="#{fileUpload.clearData}" />

  </rich:fileUpload>

When I choose a file and I delete it, this method of my FileUpload class is executed:

@Named

@SessionScoped

public class FileUpload implements Serializable {

    ......

    public void clearData() {

           .........

    }

How do I pass the parameter of the chosen file to my method?

Hmmm, you could use an AjaxBehaviorEvent as parameter in your clearData method:

public void clearData(AjaxBehaviorEvent event){

// do something with the event

}

Maybe there are some useful values in the event.

It seems a good starting but I find only metadatas inside of the event.. some other idea?

Could you provide some code, I'm trying to achieve what you just did but still can't get it, I'm still learning all this web-ajax-jsf stuff. Thanks !
