Mixing JSF and JSTL

Hi group,
I need some help with the following. I'd want to make use of a JSF managed bean (request scope) within a JSTL tag. This is not possible unless the JSF managed bean was accessed before within a JSF tag. That time the bean will be initialized.
How can I make sure the JSF managed bean is properly initialized so I can use it within my JSTL tags?
Thanks!

I'm using IBM Websphere portal (V6). Right now I have no access to the code and cannot provide you with a sample. However, I'm sure the code is fine as when I move the JSTL code to after the JSF code (so that the managed bean gets initialized by the JSF tag) it all works without problems...
Regards,

JSF and JSTL integration

Can anyone tell me how to access JSF objects from JSTL tags?
I want to set a requestScope flag in my changeListener
... context.getExternalContext().getRequestMap().put("xxx","ok"); ... and render output depending on existance of this flag:
...<c:if test="${requestScope.xxx!=null}" > .... .
This examplecode doesn't work, JSTL tags cannot access this var! How can I do that?
What I realy want is to reload another frame when user changed a specific input field.
Above code should add a JavaScript to reload the frame if this is true .
I can't do this on submit because the other framepage uses the stored/modified data.
Maybe there's a better approach for this anyway?
Thanks for your help!

Thanks for your help - I found it was my own mistake why it didn't work. Now it does, as you said.
But in the meentime I ran into another Problem mixing JSTL und JSF:
I want to build a SelectOneMenu and populate it with data from a database, but with selectItemValue
other than selectItemLabel (value should be numeric DB-ID, label a readable name).
Since "selectItems" allows only one dimensional Arrays (?) as parameter, I must use "selectItem" for
each row. So I wrote following code:
<h:selectOneMenu id="m1" value="#{worktime.employee}">
   <sql:query var="employees" dataSource="jdbc/WebOfficeDB">
       select oid,displayname from employees order by displayname asc
    </sql:query>
    <c:forEach var="row" items="${employees.rows}" >
       <f:selectItem itemValue="#{row.oid}" itemLabel="#{row.displayname}" />
    </c:forEach>
</h:selectOneMenu>This doesn't work, I get NullPointer Exceptions from selectItem.setValue().
I think because JSF "#" references another context than JSTL "$" - is this correct?
So I tried to set a JSTL variable inside the forEach loop to access the datarow
<c:set var="data" value="${row}" scope="request"/>
<f:selectItem itemValue="#{requestScope.data.oid}" itemLabel="#{requestScope.data.displayname}" />
...The effect is that all lines of the selectOneMenu have the same content (from the last datarecord)!?
Since this is my first project in JSTL and JSF and should stay a small one I don't want to go into building
CustomComponents and so on for such a simple Task.
I would be very very happy for some tips and hints, since I think this mixing of JSTL and JSF Context
will be a very common problem within my project.
Thanks

JSF and JSTL 1.2...please help, i`m going nuts

Hey guys,
This is driving me up the wall. I`m running glassfish v2 b19 (i havent upgraded, because this one works for me).
But i have a problem using jstl in my jsf app. i`m trying to do the following :
                                                <c:choose>
                                                    <c:when test="#{currentRow.value['dboSTANDBY_LOG.STANDBY_LOG_TYPE'] eq 'server'}">
                                                        <webuijsf:tableColumn binding="#{standby$Standby_Log.tableColumn19}" headerText="NAME"
                                                            id="tableColumn19" sort="dboSTANDBY_LOG.SBYN_HOST_NAME" width="40">

                                                        </webuijsf:tableColumn>
                                                    </c:when>
                                                    <c:otherwise>
                                                        <webuijsf:tableColumn binding="#{standby$Standby_Log.tableColumn17}" headerText="NAME"
                                                            id="tableColumn17" sort="dboSTANDBY_LOG.APPL_SYSTEMS_PROP_INNUMBER" width="40">
                                                            <webuijsf:staticText binding="#{standby$Standby_Log.staticText18}" id="staticText18" text="#{currentRow.value['dboSTANDBY_LOG.APPL_SYSTEMS_PROP_INNUMBER']}"/>
                                                        </webuijsf:tableColumn>
                                                    </c:otherwise>
                                                </c:choose>
but the app server fails on building the page saying :
According to the TLD, the attribute test is not a deferred-value or deferred-method, but the specified value contains a #-expression
Now as far as i now, JSTL 1.2 should be included in J5EE, which is in glassfish already, correct?
and JSTL 1.2 supports using deferred expressions, correct?
So why for the love of my sanity is this not working?
aaaaaa.
Thanks
D

I haven't actually used/tried this myself, and I am not a JSF expert, this error looks similar to the error message attribute xxx does not support runtime expressions.
I think you are reading the error message wrong.
You have supplied a deferred expression. No question of that.
I think the error is saying that the 'test' attribute of the <c:when> tag does not support deferred evaluation. - ie you cant use #{expr} with the <c:when> tag.
According to the JSTL1.2 spec, it seems that "deferred expressions" are only supported by the looping tags (<c:forEach> and <c:forTokens>) and the <c:set> tag.
I think the JSF equivalent would be the rendered attribute. Can you use the rendered attribute with the webuijsf:tablecolumn tag? Or another JSF container type tag?

JSF and JSTL. :'(

I'm trying to include a "jspx" component if the user has a role, but "c:if" seems not to work.
    <f:view>
    ${submenu}
    ${not empty submenu}
    <c:if test="#{not empty submenu}"><jsp:include page="${submenu}" /></c:if>
   </f:view>The first 2 lines print
mysubmenufile.jspx
true
... other code, not my included file! :'(
Why it doesn't work. I'm using .tag files, and it works fine, but i've to use scriptlet code, like
<% if (cond) { %>lot of unpretty JSF tags<% } %>
Can somebody help me to fix it?

JSTL and JSF don't really play together that well.
I don't know if JSTL tags can understand the #{expr} expr.
Mostly I find it easier to just use JSF.
Any time you include a page, I believe you need to use <f:subview> tags
Why not use that and the rendered attribute to accomplish the same thing:
<f:subview id="submenuView" rendered="#{not empty submenu}">
<jsp:include page="${submenu}" />
</f:subview>Does that work?

JSF and JSTL fmt:message

I have the following JSP:
<%@ taglib prefix="fmt" uri="http://java.sun.com/jstl/fmt" %>
<html>
Language: <fmt:message key="test.language"/>
</html>When I run this without faces (http://localhost:8080/myapp/test.jsp), it works fine, the language for the message is choosen by the browsers language setting. If I run this thru faces servlet (http://localhost:8080/myapp/faces/test.jsp) the message is english always and the browser setting is ignored (english is the default language of the VM running tomcat).
It may be a problem in JSTL because request.getLocale() returns the correct locale in both cases.
Any ideas?
I tried JSTL 1.0.5, Tomat 4.1.30 and 5.0.19
Thanks a lot
Andreas

JSF sets the locale for the view to the locale specified by the Accept-Language request header (i.e., the user's browser language setting) that is the best match for the locales defined as the default or supported locales in faces-config.xml, or to the JVM default locale if none of them matches. The selected locale is made available for JSTL i18n actions (when you use JSP for the view), so as long as you define all locales you support in faces-config.xml, your page shouldwork fine.

JSF 1.2 and JSTL 1.2

Now that JSF 1.2 and JSTL 1.2 both use the new unified EL is it possible to use them together? I know they could be used together before but it was discouraged. I'm mostly interested in the functions and the loops (although Trinidad seems to be working pretty well).

Thanks... I have switched over to facelets but I am getting the same problem:
<ui:composition template="./../WEB-INF/layout.xhtml">
   <ui:define name="menu">
           <ui:include src="./flightMenu.xhtml" />
   </ui:define>

              binding="#{flightBean.flightTabPanel.tabPanel}" id="tab_panel">

        </h:form>

</ui:composition>The probem is that the tabb.fltNum method is not being invoked... If anyone has been able to build dynamic tabs using RichFaces using a similar approach I will like to see how you did it...

Where do I put the Jakarta files standard.jar and jstl.jar when developing with JSF 2.0 in OEPE using web logic server

hi everybody, I am wondering what should i do with the standard.jar and jstl.jar files when using we logic. I tried putting both files into
the directory c:\oracle\middleware\oracle_home\user_projects\domains\base_domain\bin. I don't know if this is correct. Thanks in
in advance for the help.

Anyways I found this link on www.oracle.com website by the same author of the book I am reading Deepak Vohra - Templating with JSF 2.0 Facelets.
although here he is using Weblogic 11g although I don't think it makes a difference. have a look at the Setting up the Environment section
where he says to download the jstl.jar and standard.jar files.

Mixing Non JSF and JSF components

Hi All,
I wanted to mix non jsf and jsf components and I able to do this
<f:verbatim>
                                <input type="radio" name="selectBidder" value="#{currentRow['BID_ID]}"/>
                            </f:verbatim>But the problem is bean value is not getting binded.
The rendered output is containing same string i.e.
value="#{currentRow['BID_ID]}"
How to bind bean value to non jsf component.
And No Javascript please
Thanks

ADF Faces: is mixing JSF RI and ADF Faces tags supported?

Hi,
I'm looking at ADF Faces as a future possibility for our application that is currently based on JSF RI.
When looking at the ADF Faces demo it strikes me that all pages are almost completely built up from ADF Faces tags.
For instance
af:form
af:commandButton
af:inputText
are used instead of the equivalent core jsf tags f:form, f:commandButton and f:inputText
I'm wondering if this is mandatory if we would like to use some ADF Faces components mixed within our existing application.
In other words: are ADF Faces tags supported in the environment of conventional JSF tags? And mixing ADF Faces JSF components with JSF components by other vendors?
Another thing that strikes me is that pages are constructed using ADF Faces tags for any and all markup content.
I guess this is meant to support several different clients (normal browser applications, mobile clients, voice activation over telephone) using different renderers.
In my experience abstracting markup this way inherently means loss of control over the exact markup that is sent to the client. This is not acceptable for all projects and customers.
Is embedding ADF Faces tags within template HTML, within f:verbatim tags or not, supported?
Regards,
Joost de Vries

You absolutely can mix JSF RI and ADF Faces tags. This is very much supported! You can swap in <h:form> and <h:commandButton> and <h:inputText>. Our versions support some features that the JSF tags do not, as described in our release notes.
Your point about using tags to produce all markup is a very cogent one. For some projects, absolute control over HTML will be a necessary requirement, so we do support that style of development. But we believe strongly that the future does not lie in constant handcoding of HTML, but instead in building more powerful, flexible, and reusable components and assembling those into pages. This was one of the themes of a talk I gave with two coworkers at this past JavaOne.

What all other specifications required for JSF 2.0 and JSTL 1.2 specification evaluation with respect to glass fish 3.0.
Please let me know what all other JSRs required to go through.

You will want a solid understanding of Servlets.
You may want to use EJBs and EARs; then again, you may not.

Mixing static and dynamic content in a single outputText value causes NPEs

Hi,
I am having a problem and I'm wondering if it is a result of my error or if this is a bug.
I am mixing dynamic and static content in the value attribute of tags (e.g., outputText). On initial page load, everything works fine. However, if the same view is reloaded (e.g., after a failed validation) I get an NPE from JSF:

<h:outputText escape="false"
          value='<link href="#{myBean.styleSheet}" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" />' />If I replace this with a much more convoluted set of tags, it works:
<h:outputText escape="false"
          value='<link href="' /><h:outputText escape="false" value="#{myBean.styleSheet}"
          /><h:outputText escape="false" value='" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" />' />So is the problem that I am mixing dynamic and static content with a single value? If so, why does it work on the first view, and not after?
If it matters, I'm using the reference implementation version 1.1 (as included with NetBeans 5.5RC2) on SuSE 10.0 w/ JDK 1.5_09.
Thanks,
Bill

Yes, that's how I originally had it, but then changed it to the outputText approach since a single tag could do what I wanted, as long as I was allowed to mix static and dynamic content within a single value.
I think this is a bug in JSF 1.1, since if what I am doing is illegal, it should throw an exception on the first page view, not work on first view and throw an exception on subsequent views. I'm guessing that this has something to do with the fact that on first page view it only runs the restore view and render response JSF phases, while on subsequent requests all of the phases will be run, and it's in one of those other phases that the exception is thrown.
For now, multiple tags is the work-around, I guess.
Thanks,
Bill

Jsf and tiles via myfaces

Greetings:
Please either confirm and/or correct following proposed solution for Myfaces tiles.
Issue: isert a tile definition and attribute in a pure jsf page.
First passed solution: A hybrid of Jsp programming and Jsf. I was able to create a tile page layout in pure jsf except in the portal columns i used old fashion jsp programming to insert a list of portletDefinitions which is extracted from jsf ValueBinding of its managed beans.
The problem with the above approach is that it works well only with html portlet fragments. When a portlet fragment has some jsf elements, the page rendering has conflict of simultaneous rendering between jsf and jsp. The portlet fragments are rendered in a woring place.
Proposed solution: use <h:dataTable ...> to render the portletList and extract the item portletDefinition as following:
<h:dataTable var="portlet"
value="#{portalTabbedBean.selectedPane.serviceListL}" >
<f:verbatim>
<h:outputText
value="<tiles:insert name=#{portlet.portletDefinition} flush='false' /> " />
</f:verbatim>
</h:dataTable>
Note on the name of tiles:insert element, which i just extracted the definition as a jsp variable to make it work in the first hybrid solution:
<tiles:insert name="<%=portletDefinition%>" flush="false" />
Thanks

I reply this myself. Jsf and Jsp programming either via Jstl or while loop do not go together under current version.
I solve the problem by using Jsp programming and insert the portlet tile fragment directly rather than though a portlet template with different tile content attribute. The portlet tile is created as <h:panelGrid ...> and observe the set rules to make Jsf and jsp working together. Hopefully Jsf and Jsp will be able to work together nicely in their next specifications.

What is JSF and where use it

hi!
i dont know what is jsf and where use it
what different from JSTL
thanks...

At this level a visit to JSF-Tutorials (http://www.jsftutorials.net/) might the best thing to do. Or dig into a book.
Basically it has a different scope than JSTL.
JSF is a presentation layer framework. Other names in that area are:
Struts, Spring MVC, Tapestry, and many more
JSTL is a collection of JSP-tags and therefor covers only a VERY small part of the presentation layer. And it is very far away from a framework

Problems with JSF and included subviews

Hi everybody,
I' ve got a problem with JSF and included subviews which makes me going
crazy. I've got no clue why my web-pages are represent wrongly. The only
tip I've got is that it must be connected with the kind I do include my JSF-pages.
When I use <%@file="sub.jsp"%> my pages are are represent right. When I use <jsp:include page="Sub.jsp" /> or <c:import url="Sub.jsp" /> ( mark: the usage of flush="true" or flush="false" doesn't matter )
my pages are represent wrongly.
The usage of tags like f:facet or f:verbatim were also included but didn't point to an solution.
I searched the whole Sun Developer Forum and some other web-sites for any solution for my problem but the given hints and clues didn't help. Now I'm trying to post my problem directly in Sun's Forum in hope to get help.
My environment is the following:
JAVA JDK 1.5 Update 4
Tomcat 5.5.9
JSLT 1.1
Sun JSF 1.1
Win 2K

Hello Zhong Li,
many thanks for your post, but it didn't work.
My problem is that the JSF-Components im my included or imported
JSP-Pages does not accept any kind of style or styleClass for
designing. The components take over the informations for colors
but not for alignment.
When I take a look at the generated JAVA-Source in $TOMCAT/WORK/WEBAPP for my sub.jsp ( sub.java )
it seems that the resulting HTML-page would be presented correctly.
But later when I start the application via Firefox or Mozilla the html-sourcecode is totally wrong.
In my example I create a simple grid with 2 rows and 2 columns.
Both columns contains JSF-Outtext-Components and are included with div-tags.
The generated Sub.java shows that the text would be setted in the div-tags. Unfortunately the html-sourcecode represented by my browser shows that jsf-text is not setted in the tags but in the <h:form> tags. The div-tags are neither rounded by <h:form> nor containing the JSF-OutText-Components.
Any clue?
Many thanks Benjamin
