public void listener(FileUploadEvent event) throws Exception {Hi all,

I'm new to JSF2 + RichFaces 4, so I harvested infos and tips here and there on how to start the project. So far I've a very simple project, one xhtml page, with a <rich:dataTable /> and a <rich:fileUpload /> on a <rich:popupPanel />. The idea is to upload MS-Excel files into to the application, perform some logic and display an entry (generated from the MS-Excel file's content) on the <rich:dataTable />.

The <rich:fileUpload /> is defined like this:

<rich:fileUpload id="popupFileUpload"

     title="Indique o caminho do arquivo a carregar"

     acceptedTypes="xls, xlsx" uploadData="#{assemblyMB.batchList}"

     fileUploadListener="#{assemblyMB.listener}"

     maxFilesQuantity="#{assemblyMB.uploadsAvailable}" listHeight="250"

     listWidth="400"

     onuploadcomplete="#{rich:component('popup')}.hide(); return false;"

     noDuplicate="true" />

On the managed bean, I have the annotation @ManagedBean(name = "assemblyMB"), and the listener method now is very simple:

public void listener(FileUploadEvent event) throws Exception {

     System.out.println("listener");

}

I intend to access the method on the managed bean when the file is uploaded, but I'm failing to do so. I don't understand why is that happening.

Can anybody throw me a light here?

Thanks in advance,
