Richfaces 4.5.17 menuitem action method not being fired
Hello developers !!
I am migrating a web application from JEE5 to JEE7. My problem concerns to the presentation layer.
All system pages are being migrated from RichFaces 3.3.3 to 4.5.17. I have been following the official migration guide ([https://developer.jboss.org/wiki/RichFacesMigrationGuide33x-4xMigration][1]), this forum and Stackoverflow. But none has provided me an solution to my problem:
The app menu is built dinamically on the managedbean (not with tags on xhtml). It worked fine on RF 3.3.3, using the classes HtmlToolBar, HtmlDropDownMenu, HtmlMenuGroup and HtmlMenuItem. However, after migrating to the RF4 corresponding classes, the menuitem action method is not called anymore. After the user clicks on the menuitem, the page refreshes and the request is made to the same page as actual, instead of the desired page.
The migrated code follows below:
