I have following objects:


AllManagers.java
ArrayList managers;

Manager.java
String name;
Arraylist employees;

Employee.java
String name;
int yearsOfService;

I'd like to be able to show one table, AllManagers, each row of which contains information about each manager - name and in the next cell a list of all his employees.

So I started with

<h:dataTable value=#{allManagers} var="manager">

Then nested inside it

<h:dataTable value="#{manager.employees}" var="employee">
<h:column>
 <h:selectOneMenu readonly="true">
 <f:selectItems value="#{employee.name}" />
 </h:selectOneMenu>
</h:column>

for allManagers. The name shows up as expected. But the employees are not showing up!

Is this the right way to handle such a situation? I'd appreciate any references or tips.

Thanks
