JSF Tags value and valueRef

Hey
Does anybody know if these two attributes (value and valueRef) mean the same thing in the JSF tag libraries???
I am the JWSDP tutorial and some of the examples use value but this does not exist as an attribute for that tag for example
<f:selectitem itemLabel="Pear"
value="#{currentFruits.pearSelected}" >
The tag selectitem does not have a value attribute! it has valueRef and itemValue.
Ta.

Hi
in 1.0_final there is only value-attribute
cheers,

Validate the XML tag value and display the Binding data in XDP

Hi,
I am new to Adobe Life Cycle.... and i am working on the following requirement and XML file is enclosed...
1. Need to validate the XML value of <pp> with condition
2. Basing on the value of <pp>, need to display the <ct> values in text field
If i simply bind, it takes the values from top of array and display..
Please suggest how to restrict the binding values basing on the condition.

Pass arguments to JSF tag attributes like id oder value

Hi!
I started with JSF some weeks ago and have some questions that i could not find in FAQ or tutorials.
My page structure uses some <jsp:includes>. Each included page uses JSF.
The structure is (example - users):
Users.jsp
|
|(incl)
|
Mainpage.jsp (=Framework)
|
|(incl)
|
Browser.jsp (=Table)
In "Users" all specific data is set. In "Browser" there is a <h:form> tag and a <h:dataTable> tag.
The result should be a simple table with users inside.
So I want to pass arguments to those sub-pages.
1) -> form-ids as parameter:
<h:form id="#{sessionScope.formName}">
... does not work, because ids have to start with a character or "_".
formName is set as followed:
session.setAttribute("formName", "form_users");
2) ->beans as parameter:
<h:dataTable id="browser_table_#{sessionScope.id}" styleClass="browser_table"
var="user" value="#{sessionScope.user_list}">
... does not work. "id" is requested to be a static value and "value" can't find the bean by this string.
user_list is set as followed:
session.setAttribute("user_list", "UserListBean.users");
(UserListBean.users is an ArrayList)
Is there an error in my thinking? Or is there a way to pass arguments as i want?
Thanks!

sorry ... mistake in topic: "oder" = "or" of course :)

Programatic Value/MethodBindings with JSF tags

I read thread http://forum.java.sun.com/thread.jsp?forum=427&thread=526026 "Using JSP scriplets in the JSF tags". The following was suggested but not recomended in order to use JSF Tag EL with a programatically set value.
<%
String myString="MyLabel";
request.setAttribute("myString", myString);
%>
<h:view>
<h:outputText id="myID" value="#{myString}" />
</h:view>
Is it possible to set up ValueBinding's and MethodBindings in a similar way or would it be better to dump the JSF tags and use JSF altogether programatically. Below is an example that seems like it should work but the result is the ValueBinding.toString() ends up being the value.
thanks in advance;
<%
FacesContext context = FacesContext.getCurrentInstance();
Application app = context.getApplication();
ValueBinding vb= app.createValueBinding("#{MyBean.member}");
request.setAttribute("vb", vb);
%>
<h:inputText id="myid" value="#{vb}"/>

--right ValueBinding.getValue() takes a FacesContext, which you definately would not want to pass as and arg in El, even if you could I would think.
To answer your question, we are generating several software layers based on an MDA approach. We reverse engineer the database schema into XML then use that "Platform Independent Model" to generate a JDO model and set of persistence-capable Java classes, and now a Faces Bean model and Bean classes. We also have a set of constants files which have all the entity and property names to be used in the web layer.
Since the database model is huge, and changes alot (government project), hard-coding EL expressions in a thousand places is a very bad idea given the code-generation/reverse-engineering approach.
We want 100% compile-time checking for all persistent-access properties and the Faces programatic approach to Value/Method bindings gets us there, if it will somehow work.
--any other ideas would be greatly appreciated.

How to pass tag name and value dynamically in the output of PCo notification?

Hi,
I have a requirement to develop such a scenario where there can be multiple no of tags in PCo (Say 10) but there will be single notification to push the tag name when the value got changed and the changed value to MII. for any value change for any of the tag, the notification will be trigger. So As per my knowledge I have to pass the tag name and value dynamically in the "output" tab of the notification. But need your support to find out how to pass them dynamically.
Thanks in advance.
Regards,
Suman

Hi Suman/Jeedesh,
As per Pco notification, it will trigger whenever any of the tag value changes in Agent instance subscription items.
For above issue, My suggestion
1. Create DB table name TAGLIST with 200 tags as rows in columns (Tagname, TagValue)
2. Based on notification trigger, create a transaction and update values w.r.t TagNames in above table
3. Next time, when notification trigger with fresh value for any of the tag, cross check with existing TagName with Value and update in DB table.
4. And in the mean time, send those Tag details vie mail trigger or as per requirement
Instead of creating 200 notification, above is a just alternate way suggestion to achieve dynamic tag value change notification.
Hope it might solve your problem

Praveen Reddy

XML access to atributes and tag values at the same time

Hi to everyone,
I'm making some experiences with Flex, but I already have some experience with Flash and AS3.
What I'm trying to accomplish, is to make a small application that uses webservices from the Weather Channel. The first part of the application is to ask the user his location. Then the location is sent to the webservice and the system return an XML with the possible matches. The user chooses one, and the weather information is shown.
I have no problem with the navigation, or passing the results from one stage to another, but I'm having a problem, that I think it has an easy fix, but I can't get a light or answer from what I've seen from these forums or webasites... I suspect it's because the format of the XML that is return.
For example, my request is this one: http://xoap.weather.com/search/search?where=aveiro
wich return two possible locations, in this way:
<search ver="3.0">
     <loc id="BRXX1094" type="1">Aveiro, Brazil</loc>
     <loc id="POXX0006" type="1">Aveiro, Portugal</loc>
</search>
Well, I want to display in a Datagrid the "id" attribute, and the "loc" tag value, i.e, "Aveiro, Brazil" and "Aveiro, Portugal".
I defined the DataGrid like this:
<mx:DataGrid x="10" y="53" width="365" id="dgLocation" dataProvider="{wSearch.lastResult.loc}" itemClick="callService(event);">
      <mx:columns>
             <mx:DataGridColumn headerText="Localidade" dataField="loc"/>
             <mx:DataGridColumn headerText="Referência" dataField="@id"/>
      </mx:columns>
</mx:DataGrid>
In the "loc" dataField, doesn't show anything, and the "@id" does display the correct information. Since I only have "loc" tag inside the main root tag, how can I get teir values? With labelFunction? How would you write it to get the information?
This is my last try:
private function getLocationName(item:Object, column:DataGridColumn):String{
       var xmlitem:XML=XML(item);
       trace(xmlitem.loc.toXMLString());
       return item.loc;
Any ideias are welcome. Thanks.

This seems to work:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<mx:Application xmlns:mx="http://www.adobe.com/2006/mxml"
creationComplete="wSearch.send();">
<mx:Script>
    <![CDATA[
      import mx.controls.dataGridClasses.DataGridColumn;
      private function getData(item:Object, column:DataGridColumn):String{
        return XML(item).valueOf();
    ]]>
</mx:Script>
<mx:HTTPService id="wSearch" url="http://xoap.weather.com/search/search?where=aveiro"
    resultFormat="e4x"/>
<mx:DataGrid x="10" y="53" width="365" id="dgLocation"
    dataProvider="{wSearch.lastResult.loc}">
    <mx:columns>
      <mx:DataGridColumn headerText="Localidade" labelFunction="getData"/>
      <mx:DataGridColumn headerText="Referência" dataField="@id"/>
    </mx:columns>
</mx:DataGrid>
</mx:Application>

JSF tags and produced html

Hi all i have a question. Why do the JSF tags produce html that is laid out with tables rather than divs? I've tried to get the jsf framework adopted in my organisation and its this, and i quote 'Poor html' that is blocking the adoption.
Any one got a good answer i can take to the CTO please?
The only thing i could come up with was cross browser compatibility.

The CTO is about ten years out of date if he is allergic to HTML tables. Everybody does it except wannabe HTML gurus who invented this 'issue'. It might have been a problem once. Not now.

Creating and connecting images to indicate tag values

I am trying to create a simplified version of our plant layout on my front panel using images from the image navigator. I would like to create, for example, a rectangle and have it shown green when my discrete tag value is 1 and red when my tag value is 0. I know how to code this for LEDs, however the images I lay down on the front panel do not give me the same options. (and I can’t find a simple rectangle on the image navigator??)
If anyone has any experience using this tool, I would like to know the steps involved from dragging an image on to the front panel to coding an image in the way described above.
Thanks for the help,
Stuart

As the previous post mentions, search for threads on "customizing controls", there have been a number of those. Unfortunately, what you are describing, available in most of the SCADA packages (Intellution, Wonderware, etc.) isn't available in LabVIEW. To do it requires opening a boolean indicator (LED, etc.) in the control editor and then pasting in the appropriate images, doable, but a lot of work to get good looking, controllable images.
Good Luck,

Mixing HTML and JSF or better pure JSF Tags?

I'm relatively new to JSF, but i can say, i work with all the Web Standards in HTML and CSS.
So the HTML Render Results of JSF may not fit into a Web Developers Dreams of perfect HTML/CSS.
An Option i see is to use HTML and put only the dynamic parts in there as JSF Components.
What are the Pro's and Con's using HTML?
some stuff i can image:
Using pure JSF:
- May many components have impact to the performance?
- Mixed with HTML: What if the application should be rendered to another client pc (e.g. Mobile)?
What are your experiences?

The one downfall of mixing html with jsf, unless you use the f:verbatim tag, that the page is not properly represented in the component tree. Also depending on certain technologies you use (when I used ajax4jsf it worked this way) that the jsf component tree was rendered and then all the html was rendered at the end. This caused html tags and text that I had inside a jsf tag to be improperly displayed.
This though was the case when I was originally using jsf 1.1, so it may have been improved in later editions, but since I have become accustomed to writing the entire page in jsf tags I have not really tested that limit in the current version.

Formating and calculating xml tag value

I have an xml file that holds xml tag such as <weight>.55 kg</weight>
I want to have two outputs:
Output 1) Output to print: 0.55
Output 2) Output to print 0.8 of the xml tag value (0.55 * 0.8) : 0.44
I was able to get the Output 1) by using <?format-number:weight;'9G990D00'?>
However, I can not get the Output2) as expected.
If I put <?format-number:(weight)*0.8;'9G990D00'?>,
I get the error message "Caused by: oracle.xdo.parser.v2.XPathException: Cannot convert .55 kg to number."
Appreciate any help on how to solution for Output2)

If that is the case then try using
<?format-number:( substring-before(WEIGHT,'kg')*0.8);'9G990D00'?>

JSP ${} expressions in JSF tag attributes

Does anyone know why the expert group decided not to allow ${} style expressions within JSF tag attributes? I understand that a different syntax is needed to implement the 'late binding' #{} expressions used to link input controls to form beans, but not why the JSF tags actually prevent the use of immediately evaluated ${} expressions for accessing variables in the page scope in JSP 2.0.
I know there has been a lot of discussion about this and other threads mention a security loophole that would be opened up by allowing expressions like #{blah.${someProperty}}, but I'm not sure why this sort of thing would cause a problem. Is there any way to enable this behaviour, such as editing the JSF tag library descriptors to allow runtime expressions (horrible though that sounds)? Or perhaps another JSF implementation that supports both immediately evaluated and late-binding expressions? It seems a rather unnecessary restriction that is going to cause much confusion and mistyping for all...
Thanks in advance,
Keith.

Thanks Adam, I see the problem now. It's a fairly obscure loophole but serious nonetheless. Of course, this problem could also be avoided by not using request parameters within JSF tags as it doesn't affect the majority of legitimate uses for expressions.
I have to disagree with you about mixing ${} and #{} expressions though. The majority of developers will be used to writing ${} expressions in JSTL and JSP text and so will expect them to do work the same in JSF tags. Judging by the number of posts in this forum about being unable to use page scope variables in JSF tags this issue is already confusing a lot of people.
As a rule of thumb, "use ${} for expressions that are output to the page and #{} for binding controls to backing beans and invoking methods" (which perform clearly distinct functions) is a lot simpler and easier to learn IMHO than the current one, which is "use ${} for expressions that are output to the page except within a JSF tag, where you use #{} for the same thing and also to update form values and invoke action methods"! (OK, I'm exaggerating a little for effect, but you get the point... :-)
I agree that mixing both types of expression in the same attribute might be a little confusing, but this is an unlikely edge case that should probably be prevented in value binding or action attributes anyway. It's more of an issue for label values where mistyping one for the other is already very common and, although not especially difficult to debug, is just another pitfall awaiting the unwary JSP developer. I'm not sure that JSP expressions would be much more difficult to debug anyway as the value and method bindings will simply not work, which is pretty obvious as soon as you try and test the thing.
Is this something that the EG would be prepared to reconsider for the next release of JSF, or perhaps getting the security loophole addressed in the next JSP spec? In the meantime, is there any reason that developers shouldn't enable runtime expressions in the TLD file provided that they're willing to live with the consequences?
(Sorry to harp on about it, but I've already had several complaints about this after recommending JavaServer Faces for a major development project at ingenta.com.)
Many thanks,
Keith.

<?xml version='1.0' encoding='UTF-8'?>
<jsp:root xmlns:jsp="http://java.sun.com/JSP/Page" version="2.1" xmlns:f="http://java.sun.com/jsf/core"
xmlns:h="http://java.sun.com/jsf/html" xmlns:trh="http://myfaces.apache.org/trinidad/html"
xmlns:tr="http://myfaces.apache.org/trinidad" xmlns:c="http://java.sun.com/jsp/jstl/core">
<jsp:directive.page contentType="text/html;charset=UTF-8"/>
<html>
<head>
<title>Error Page</title>
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=UTF-8"/>
</head>
<body id="b1">
<h4 style="color:red">An Error Occured. Please click Back button or Signout.</h4>
<input type="button" value="Back" onclick="history.back()"/>
<tr:commandButton id="cb1" text="SIGN OUT" action="exit" actionListener="#{Login.LogOut}"/>
</body>
</html>
</jsp:root>
When I deploy application and run into 404 error, page displays error message with only Back button. I don't see SingOut button. I have checked url and it follows /faces/* pattern. Still to double check, I made a change and configured servlet mapping in web.xml as
<servlet-mapping>
<servlet-name>Faces Servlet</servlet-name>
<url-pattern>/faces/*</url-pattern>
<url-pattern>*.jspx</url-pattern>
</servlet-mapping>
Still commandButton is not rendered. I understand that my error page don't have access to FacesContext or not going through Faces Servlet. I know this is a small issue, but couldn't figure out what can be done. I have also tried using .xhtml and .jsf as per googled suggestion. But no luck
I have tried different solutions to my problem and googled for solutions. But I couldn't get it resolved.
So can you please provide any suggestions...

I think my faces servlet is configured to handle URLs having /faces/* pattern. I don't have any folder named with faces but I can access all my web pages which have /faces/ in their url. All jspx pages in application are configured in task flows. So I think they have access in FacesContext. But error page is configured in only web.xml and some how it is missing access to FacesContext and not rendering JSF tags. Any help?
