Dynamic menu with dynamic action

[msantana]

Hi everyone!.
I´ve made a dynamic menu, which loads the information from a table on my database, which has an attribute called action.
So I want to made something like this:

 <rich:dropDownMenu id="Mantenimientos" value="Mantenimientos" rendered="#{identity.loggedIn}">
     <c:forEach var="item" items="#{menuHome.functions}">
        <rich:menuItem submitMode="ajax" value="#{item.nombre}" action="#{item[item.action]}"/>
     </c:forEach>
   </rich:dropDownMenu>

But this doesnt seems to work.
I only want to put into de action attribute the value of the attribute called action on the item.

Someone can help me with this?

Thank you very much guys!

Hello,

Indeed, the action attribute expects its EL to evaluate to MethodExpression.

You could handle all the menu actions from a generic method, that will read the item.action attribute itself, and execute the appropriate code based on a mapping.

Thanx guy, but i found the way to that. I simply have to do this:

 <rich:menuItem submitMode="ajax" value="#{item.nombre}" action="#{item.getAction()}"/>

Thanx again for your time!
