Hello out there!
I am having some issues with my database application/web interface generated with seam-gen.
My environment:
Eclipse 3.4.1
JBossTools 3.0.0.Beta
Seam 2.1.1.GA
The problem:
I reverse-engineered some entities from my database and seam-gen is only generating a search filter with fields for my string-typed columns on the web pages. Now I wanted to add fields to search for an ID, a capacity, load, etc etc..., i.e. for integer, long, double, ... values.
Setting the respective attribute to its uppercase relative in the entity class didnt quite do the job, I ended up not being able to leave the field empty therefore always having to enter each parameter to view a whole table:
Client.xhtml:
...
<s:decorate id="clientid" template="layout/display.xhtml">
<ui:define name="label">Clientid</ui:define>
<h:outputText value="#{clientHome.instance.clientid}"/>
</s:decorate>
...ClientList.page.xml:
...
<param name="from"/>
<param name="clientid" value="#{clientList.client.clientid}"/>
<param name="company" value="#{clientList.client.company}"/>
...ClientList.java:
...
private static final String[] RESTRICTIONS = {
"to_char(client.clientid) like concat(lower(#{clientList.client.clientid}),'%')",
...Client.java:
...
@Entity
@Table(name = "CLIENT", schema = "SCHULUNG")
public class Client implements java.io.Serializable {
private Long clientid;
...An empty number search field would produce an empty result page.
Alhough I really used the search function extensively, I still cannot believe I am the only one experiencing this problem, so if I missed the thread, please point me towards it. Otherwise, any help would be greatly appreciated, I am really stuck here.
Thanks in advance,
Sebastian
