SeamFaces 3.0.1 and Glassfish 3.1 - View Parameters broken

tmanning May 18, 2011 12:42 PM

I've been working with SeamFaces 3.0.1 / Glassfish 3.1 / Mojarra 2.1.1 / Weld 1.1.1 and I cannot get JSF2 view parameters to work.

However, the preRenderView listener method is never called when I load a page specifying view parameters and a preRenderView listener. If I simply drop the SeamFaces and PrettyFaces jars from WEB-INF/lib, then view parameters work fine. Is this a known bug? I haven't found a reference to it.

Just as a reference to modifications I've had to do to get this far (might help somebody):

PretyFaces jar is not being used, but is required due to issue described here

Installing Mojarra 2.1.1 got around the issue described here

Installing Weld 1.1.1 got around some other issues I can no longer remember.

Adding the FacesServlet definition and mapping in web.xml got around the issue described here

Does anyone have insight into this problem?

This is actually an issue with PrettyFaces and Mojarra (the bug is actually in Mojarra/Glassfish, please vote for it!)

Thanks for the clarification Lincoln. Combined with the the previously mentioned bugs (one requiring PrettyFaces whether it's being used or not), it sounds like SeamFaces is unusable in Glassfish 3.1 unless we can do without ViewParams. Am I missing any workarounds?

For the benefit of anyone else coming across this thread: turns out the issue was with PrettyFaces after all and it will be fixed. See above links for more info.
