Hi all,

I'm calling an action method of a Conversation Scoped Session Bean bi my XHTML's EL like

#{actionBean.find}

and it calls:
     

  @In(required=false)
        @Out(required=false)
        private List<Section> sections;

        @In(required=false)
        @Out(required=false)
        private List<Section> selectedSections;

        @Override
        public void find() throws Exception {
                if( selectedChapter!= null ){
                        sections = selectedChapter.getSections();
                        selectedSections = new ArrayList<Section>();
                        selectedSections.add(sections.get(0));
                }
                translations = new ArrayList<Translation>();
                for (Section section : selectedSections) {
                        for (Translation translation : section.getTranslations()) {
                                if(!translations.contains(translation)){
                                        translations.add(translation);
                                }
                        }
                }

For some reason, the variable sections gets outjected properly, but the selectedSections does not!  Why is that?
