NotSerializableException for UICalendar during Ajax request

mwoinoskibt May 21, 2012 2:55 PM

I'm working on a project where we are replacing Trinidad components with RichFaces 4.2 componenets. We're using an <a4j:commandLink> to send an Ajax request. The same tag worked with Trinidad filter. However, without the Trinidad libraries, the request now triggers a NotSerializableException for org.richfaces.component.UICalendar. If I change the value of the javax.faces.STATE_SAVING_METHOD context param from "client" to "server", the exception does not occur.

This sounds simliar to Jira issue RF-10605, which was resolved for 4.0.0. Am I seeing the same bug resurfacing? Or is there a different config I should use for RichFaces client-side state saving?

Thanks,

Mike

Hi Mike,

the UICalendar should not been serialized as whole,

could you please share more details?

The page / managed-bean / stacktrace.

After studying the page more carefully, I realized that the <rich:calendar> tag is binding to a UICalendar in the managed bean. So it seems reasonable that I wouldn't be able to store the state of a UICalendar on the client side.

My page:

<html xmlns:h="http://java.sun.com/jsf/html"
      xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml"
      xmlns:rich="http://richfaces.org/rich">
<h:head></h:head>
<h:body>
    <h:form id="searchForm">
        <rich:calendar id="dateEnd" binding="#{searchManager.dateEndUICalendar}" />
        <h:commandButton action="search" value="Search" />
    </h:form>
</h:body>
</html>

My (simplified) bean:

public class SearchManager implements Serializable {

    private UICalendar dateUICalendar;

    public UICalendar getDateUICalendar() {
        return dateUICalendar;
    }

    public void setDateUICalendar(UICalendar dateUICalendar) {
        this.dateUICalendar = dateUICalendar;
    }
    
    public String search() {
        return "display-search-results";
    }
}

Stack trace:
