Hi.

I have the following component which retrieves a list of courses done by a employee. This works fine but when I included some code to get a list of courses that match a certain input the list of courses is not retrieved (actually the method listCoursesEmployee() is not invoked at all).

@Name("courseservice")
@Scope(ScopeType.CONVERSATION)
@Restrict("#{identity.loggedIn}")
public class CourseAction {


 @In
 private EntityManager entityManager;

 @In(value="empleadoSel")
 private Tecnico selectedEmployee;


 @DataModel
 private List<CursoCurriculum> listCoursesEmployee = new ArrayList<CursoCurriculum>();



 public CourseAction(){}



 @Factory(value="listCoursesEmployee",autoCreate=true)
 public void listCoursesEmployee(){


 if (selectedEmployee != null)
 {
 Curriculum cvEmpleado = null;

 cvEmpleado = selectedEmployee.getCurriculum();

 if (cvEmpleado != null)
 listCoursesEmployee = cvEmpleado.getCursos();
 }

 }

But if I move the code that gets the list of courses to another component everything works. This is the code in the new component:

@Name("cursoservice")
@Scope(ScopeType.CONVERSATION)
@Restrict("#{identity.loggedIn}")
public class CursosAction {


 @In
 private EntityManager entityManager;


 private String nombreCurso;


 @Out(scope=ScopeType.EVENT)
 List<Curso> listaCursosParcial = new ArrayList<Curso>();

 public CursosAction(){}

 public List<Curso> getListaCursosParcial(){
 return listaCursosParcial;
 }


 public void setNombreCurso(String nombreCurso) {
 this.nombreCurso = nombreCurso;
 }



 public void obtieneCursosParcial(){

 String patron = "";
 patron = (nombreCurso == null) ? "%" : ('%' + nombreCurso.toLowerCase().replace('*', '%') + '%');

 listaCursosParcial = entityManager.createQuery(
 "from Curso where LOWER(nombre) like :patron order by nombre")
 .setParameter("patron",patron)
 .getResultList();
 }

I want to have all the code in the first component. If this is posible what am I doing wrong?

Thanks.
