Pass arguments inside action listener

Hi everybody, I have a bunch of combo boxes which I have stored in an array. Now I have action listeners on these and i wanna know which combo box of the array element has been called. Like lets say ihave combobox = new JComboBox. I want to know the value of "i" inside the action listener when that particular combo box is called. I am not sure whether I have explained it well enuf, but please let me know if thats the case. I need some urgent help on this.

No its not that I guess. I have this loop where u run thru it for i = n lets say and create an array of comboboxes. Now I have to know whenever which of these comboboxes has been fired. lets say combobox # 5 in the array has been fired then somehow I have to know and get this value 5 (which I have to store in a class variable). Hope I made myself clear this time.
You can always call getSource() on the action
event to figure out which component fired it. Is this
what you are looking for? I think your message is
missing a section in the middle.

Property on Backing Bean is Not set when Action Listener is Fired

Why is it that when my action listener is invoked, the property for my other component on the page has not been reflected in model yet?
Here is what I have:
My JSP has the following two components:
<h:inputText value="#{manageQuestionBean.newStory}"></h:inputText>
<h:commandButton value="add" actionListener="#{manageQuestionBean.onAddStory}"></h:commandButton> My Java code has the following:
public void onAddStory(ActionEvent event) {
       //This always prints out 'null'
       System.out.println("The value of 'newStory' is: " + newStory);
      //TO DO: this is where the logic would go for creating a new story object.
    } When I put logging statements inside my setter for the newStory property, I see that it is being set to the right value, but then it being reset to empty string. Why is that? During what phase do the action listeners get invoked?

Which JSF implementation/version are you using?

During what phase do the action listeners get invoked?The invoke application phase, after the update model values phase.

Issue with setting an Action Listener for a Command Button

Hi all,
I'm trying to set an action listener for a CoreCommanButton in a backing bean. Here's my code:
     CoreCommandButton editBtn = new CoreCommandButton();
          MethodBinding mb = FacesContext.getCurrentInstance().getApplication().createMethodBinding("#{backBean.doButtonAct}",null);
          editBtn.setActionListener(mb);
//Action listener method
     public void doButtonAct(ActionEvent actionEvent)
I keep getting a javax.faces.el.MethodNotFoundException error. However when I remove the ActionEvent parameter in doButtonAct(), I get a wrong number of arguments error.
So i'm guessing there is something wrong with the parameters i accept in my action listener method. what can be causing this issue?
Cheers.

I figured this out.
Since doButtonAct() requires an ActionEvent object as a parameter, i needed to define the parameter type when I create the method binding.
Solution:
     Class argsString[] = new Class[] { ActionEvent.class };
          MethodBinding mb = FacesContext.getCurrentInstance().getApplication().createMethodBinding("#{backBean.doButtonAct}",argsString);

Calling action listener for a BUTTON component in java bean page

Hi,
I have made it like this.
public void handleButtonPressed(ActionEvent event){
System.out.println("success!!!!!");
//code for calling actionlistener
FacesContext fctx = FacesContext.getCurrentInstance();
ELContext elctx = fctx.getELContext();
Application application = fctx.getApplication();
ExpressionFactory exprFactory = application.getExpressionFactory();
MethodExpression methodExpr = null;
methodExpr = exprFactory.createMethodExpression(elctx, "#{exbean.handleButtonPressed}",null,new Class[] { ActionEvent.class });
MethodExpressionActionListener actionListener = null;
actionListener = new MethodExpressionActionListener(methodExpr);
button.addActionListener(actionListener);
Even after making the listener Function as Void wHen i click the button i m getting the error saying."ARGUMENTS MISMATCH,ADF_FACES60097"??
can you help me out?
and in the msg log i m getting this
"SkinFactoryImpl> <getSkin> Cannot find a skin that matches family portal and version v1.1. We will use the skin portal.desktop.
<MethodExpressionActionListener> <processAction> Received 'javax.el.PropertyNotFoundException' when invoking action listener '#{exbean.handleButtonPressed}' for component 'null'
<MethodExpressionActionListener> <processAction> javax.el.PropertyNotFoundException: Target Unreachable, identifier 'custombean' resolved to null"
I Have tried with this giving Void TYPE as an argument
methodExpr = exprFactory.createMethodExpression(elctx, "#{exbean.handleButtonPressed},Void.TYPE,new Class[] { ActionEvent.class });
I M getting the same error.

yeah but i m creating button itself dynamically by java code....
//code
UIComponent button;
button = findComponentInRoot("cb1");
RichPanelGroupLayout pgl;
pgl = (RichPanelGroupLayout)button.getParent();
List<UIComponent> children;
children = pgl.getChildren();
RichPanelGroupLayout pgll;
pgll = new RichPanelGroupLayout();
RichInputText it;
it = new RichInputText();
it.setLabel("New textbox " + (children.size()));
RichCommandButton but = new RichCommandButton();
but.setPartialSubmit(true);
but.setText("Delete");
/*calling actionevent*/
FacesContext fctx = FacesContext.getCurrentInstance();
ELContext elctx = fctx.getELContext();
Application application = fctx.getApplication();
ExpressionFactory exprFactory = application.getExpressionFactory();
MethodExpression methodExpr = null;
methodExpr = exprFactory.createMethodExpression( elctx,"#{inbean.actionPerformed}",null, new Class[] {ActionEvent.class});
MethodExpressionActionListener actionListener = null;
actionListener = new MethodExpressionActionListener(methodExpr);
but.addActionListener(actionListener);
/*end of call*/
children.add(pgll);
children.add(it);
children.add(but);
AdfFacesContext.getCurrentInstance().addPartialTarget(pgl);
//code to call method
public void actionPerformed(ActionEvent event) {
System.out.println("entered sec bean");
return " ";}
this way i m trying to create a button programatically and tryin to add actionlistener which is not working.
the actionlistener is throwing error.... with the line
methodExpr = exprFactory.createMethodExpression( elctx,"#{inbean.actionPerformed}",null, new Class[] {ActionEvent.class});

Action Listener Method called multiple times

I have a page (fragment .jsff), containing a simple input text and a button called "search". When I click on "Search" the action listener is triggered multiple times. (The results are displayed in a table inside a panel collection).
The results are actually coming back ok.
When I debug the code, I can see the action listener method called twice.
Do you know why is that?
What should I be taking care of?
This is my code :
*** Fragment ****
<af:commandButton text="#{identityBundle.search_label}" id="cb1"
actionListener="#{UserDetailsBean.searchUsersListener}"
disabled="#{!bindings.searchUsers.enabled}"/>
*** Managed bean ***
public void searchUsersListener(ActionEvent actionEvent) {
// Add event code here...
DCBindingContainer bindings = (DCBindingContainer)getBindings();
DCIteratorBinding iter = bindings.findIteratorBinding("userIterator");
DCDataRow row = (DCDataRow)iter.getCurrentRow();
User user = (User)row.getDataProvider();
boolean isSearchCriteriaPresent = false;
if(user != null){

Map<String, Object> scopePageFlowScopeVar= adfFacesCtx.getPageFlowScope();
scopePageFlowScopeVar.put("userSearchCriteria", user);
ADFContext adfCtx = ADFContext.getCurrent();
Map sessionScope = adfCtx.getSessionScope();
sessionScope.put("userSearchCriteria", user);
setUserSearchCriteria(user);
if(selectedUserID != null){
selectedUserID.setValue(null);
RichTable table = getUserResultsTable();
DCIteratorBinding searchUsersIterator = (DCIteratorBinding)bindings.get("searchUsersIterator");
Row[] rows = searchUsersIterator.getAllRowsInRange();
if(rows.length > 0){
RowKeySetImpl rks = new RowKeySetImpl();
ArrayList keyList = new ArrayList();
keyList.add(rows[0].getKey());
rks.add(keyList);
table.setSelectedRowKeys(rks);
table.setDisplayRowKey(keyList);
refreshState(table);
if(!isSearchCriteriaPresent){
user.setFirstname(null);
else{
deleteUserButton.setDisabled(true);
resetPasswordButton.setDisabled(true);
enableUserButton.setDisabled(true);
disableUserButton.setDisabled(true);
Thanks in advance for your help

Hi,
Can you try this?
1. set partialSubmit=true for the "search" button
2. set "search" button id as partialTrigger in your result table

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 :)

Add action listener to table cell

The topic of my previous thread was:
How can I get characters, which user inputs into table cell?
I've added lisateners to table:
table.addKeyListener(new java.awt.event.KeyAdapter() {
            public void keyPressed(java.awt.event.KeyEvent evt){
                System.out.println("keyPressed");
            public void keyReleased(java.awt.event.KeyEvent evt){
                System.out.println("keyReleased");
            public void keyTyped(java.awt.event.KeyEvent evt) {
                System.out.println("keyTyped");
        });But it's not exactly what I need.
I need to do the same, but with table cell.
I want to see user input char by char and set color font for user input string.
How can I add action listener to tble cell?

This is my newly created JTextField which I will use as CellEditor for My JTable
JTextField textField = new JTextField(); //creating Component
        textField.addKeyListener(new java.awt.event.KeyAdapter(){ //adding KeyListener
            public void keyReleased(java.awt.event.KeyEvent evt){
                System.out.println("keyReleased" + ((JTextField)evt.getSource()).getText() + "column = " +table.getSelectedColumn());//test functionality
                if ( isColumnHasSameValue(table.getSelectedRow(),table.getSelectedColumn(), ((JTextField)evt.getSource()).getText() ) ){//test column for equal values
                    ((JTextField)evt.getSource()).setForeground(Color.RED); //if there is equal value set Color.RED for JTextField text
                else{ //else set Color.BLACK
                    ((JTextField)evt.getSource()).setForeground(Color.BLACK);
        table.getColumnModel().getColumn(1).setCellEditor(new DefaultCellEditor(textField)); //set custom CellEditor
private boolean isColumnHasSameValue(int row, int column, String testVal){
        testVal = testVal.trim().toLowerCase(); //put away UpperCase and empty spaces
        for(int i=0;i<model.getRowCount();i++){
           if(i == row){
               continue;//skip selected row where user inputs text
           if(model.getValueAt(i,column).toString().trim().toLowerCase().startsWith(testVal)){
                return true; //if test passed
        return false; //if there are no mathes
    }I have a question:
It seems to me, I did not use optimal solution for JTable values testing.
What can ty else?
Maybe, It is better to use
tableModel.getDataVector();And then use Pattern and Matcher ?
Am I right?

Passing arguments from Air to Photoshop jsx script

I would like to invoke JavaScript file in Photoshop from my Adobe Air application. I managed to call my script with the following code:
// Create native startup info
nativeProcessStartupInfo = new NativeProcessStartupInfo();
nativeProcessStartupInfo.executable = filePhotoshop; // File referencing Photoshop exe
// Create Vector array to pass arguments
procarg = new Vector.<String>();
procarg.push("start");
procarg.push(jsFileToCall);// String with path to my jsx file
procarg.push(scriptData); // String with argument to pass to jsx file
nativeProcessStartupInfo.arguments = procarg;
// Create native process object for calling executable file
process = new NativeProcess();
// SET ERROR HANDLERS
process.addEventListener(ProgressEvent.STANDARD_ERROR_DATA ,onError,false,0,true);
process.addEventListener(IOErrorEvent.STANDARD_ERROR_IO_ERROR ,onError,false,0,true);
process.addEventListener(IOErrorEvent.STANDARD_INPUT_IO_ERROR ,onError,false,0,true);
process.addEventListener(IOErrorEvent.STANDARD_OUTPUT_IO_ERROR ,onError,false,0,true);
process.addEventListener(ProgressEvent.STANDARD_ERROR_DATA ,onError,false,0,true);
// CALL NATIVE PROCESS
process.start(nativeProcessStartupInfo);
The Photoshop app is started, my JavaScript is invoked, but the argument is not passed into jsx.
Is there any method how to pass arguments to script in Photoshop? (I know that I can use the file to pass the parameters, but I do not like that solution.)
Thanks in advance for any hint.
Zdenek M

The only documented way I know of is programming the script as a Photoshop Plug-in that has a dialog. Then record using the script in an action. The script will record the arguments used in its dialog into the Photoshop Actions step. Then when the action is used played the action recorded arguments are retrived and the script bypasses displaying its dialog.
However In CS3 I looked at Adobe Photoshop Image Processor JavaScript it internaly used the Fit Image Plug-in Script and passed the width and hight to it. So it is posible to pass arguments from one JSX to an JSX Plug-in Script.
From CS5 "Image Processor.jsx"
// use the fit image automation plug-in to do this work for me
function FitImage( inWidth, inHeight ) {
          if ( inWidth == undefined || inHeight == undefined ) {
                    alert( strWidthAndHeight );
                    return;
          var desc = new ActionDescriptor();
          var unitPixels = charIDToTypeID( '#Pxl' );
          desc.putUnitDouble( charIDToTypeID( 'Wdth' ), unitPixels, inWidth );
          desc.putUnitDouble( charIDToTypeID( 'Hght' ), unitPixels, inHeight );
          var runtimeEventID = stringIDToTypeID( "3caa3434-cb67-11d1-bc43-0060b0a13dc4" );
          executeAction( runtimeEventID, desc, DialogModes.NO );
If You can write a file from Adobe Air you could also write the jsx file to pass the args you want to pass a to plug-in script via the ActionManager.

Mulitple action listener

Hi,
I have multiple frames,dialog,etc. for all of those components and components inside it i want to add my own actionlistener class.
for example,
in a frame say theres a button called A. in the action listener of A i want to have attached the functionality of my actionlistener class and the action listener of A that is already defined for that frame. How do you do this. I cannot use extends as the frame already extends another class.
thank you for your answer.

in a frame say theres a button called A. in the action listener of A i want to have attached the
functionality of my actionlistener class and the action listener of A that is already defined for that >frame.You can make your frame or dialog implements ActionListener which means that within the frame or dialog, you must have an actionPerformed method. Then, you can use the same actionPerform method like this:
public class myFrame extends JFrame implements ActionListener {
   public myFrame() {
      super("Test Frame");
      JButton btn=new JButton("test");
      btn.addActionListener(this);    //
   public void actionPerformed (ActionEvent evt) {
// do whatever here
};o)

Download action listener maximum length

Hi,
What should be the mzximum size of a file to be downloaded using a filedownload action listener
I am trying to download a file coming from bi publisher from adf and i have used filedownload action listener
But whenever the data is more than 200 kb or so it is failing and i am getting empty file. i have downloaded files of 156kb size or so...
What is the max size of it
Thanks,

How can i disable an Action listener temporary?

hi folks,
I have a GUI with many Jcomboxes. Each one of them has an actionlistener.
The idea was: when one of those comboboxes is selected, then the selected value will appear on ALL the comboboxes (by using setSelectedIndex(int index)).
The problem is when i select a value on ONE of those comboboxes and set it on the others, the actionListener thinks that i selcted a value on the other comboboxes and starts setting the values again... I other words if i select one combobox i obtain an endless loop...
Is it possible to disable the action listener temporary when setting the selectd values on the other comboboxes?

Just use removeActionListener and then addActionListener

Transaction Posting Confirmation Message and Action Listener behaviour

Hi, I have a scenario that a user is Posting a Transaction and when he press the “Post” Button a, confirmation dialog box should popup asking “Do you really want to Post the record ?”. If the user press “Yes” the record is further process and If the user press “No” then the transaction should not proceed.
I have implemented the main screen(PostTransaction.java) and the popup confirmation window(ConfirmationWindow.java)
Question 1 ) Why the code is not stoping in the Post Button Action listener as in JOptionPane, then how do i know that the user has selected "Yes" or "No" ?
Question 2) Do I have to write the code for posting of a Transaction(postTransaction() method) in the “ConfirmationWindow”? or it should be in “PostTransaction”.

The MII Message listener is a queue. But when I understand you correctly, you do not want to process the messages immediately after arriving in the Listener.
Maybe the categorization of messages is an option for you (see [Sap Help: Processing Rule Editor - Category|http://help.sap.com/saphelp_mii121/helpdata/en/43/e80b59ad40719ae10000000a1553f6/frameset.htm]. You can enter a category for the control recipe messages. The messages will then be placed in the Listener queue. You can use the [Message Services|http://help.sap.com/saphelp_mii121/helpdata/en/43/e80b59ad40719ae10000000a1553f6/frameset.htm] actions to read the categorized messages and process them as you need.
In addition to Manoj, you may also use the [Queueing actions|http://help.sap.com/saphelp_mii121/helpdata/en/43/e80b59ad40719ae10000000a1553f6/frameset.htm] of MII, where you can queue xml contents.
Hope this helps.

I need a code example for an action listener for a jcheckbox using matisse

I am trying to make it so that when some body clicks a jcheckbox it will put a figure into a jtextfield. Because I am using matisse I need to know the code for the action listener and I need to know quickly as well so I don't have time to look it up with searches etc.
Can anbody provide me with some example code please.

I thought that as you are all more experienced than I am that you would know where to look and as you would have already been to all of the sites you would have been able to save me a lot of time looking for the best one. I didn't mean to insult you sorry, I knew that I would be looking for a long time and hoped that some one could help speed that up for me.
Any way I have obviously annoyed you in that thread earlier this week. I know that you are all pee'd at me and don't believe me and that is fine. I have learnt every thing that I need to learn and would like to thank you for your help although I think that your language in your last post was not very pleasant, but that is ok.
I don't want to continue posting any more. But thank you for your help.

How to run a java class from a shell script with passing arguments

hi,
I have a jar with all the required classes. I was using ant to run the classes i needed.
But now i want to use a shell script to run the class, also the class accepts some arguments so when script is run it should accept arguments.
So can any one tell me how to set class paths, jar location and call the required class from shell script or batch file with passing arguments to it.
Thanks in advance.

Let's say that the order of arguments is as below
1. Jar file name
2. Classpath
Your shell script would look like this
java -cp $CLASSPATH:$2 -jar $1 I am assuming that your jar file has the required main-class entry in its manifest. Note that $1...$9 represent the arguments to this shell script.
The same goes for a batch file
java -cp %CLASSPATH%;%2 -jar %1

Pass arguments inside action listener
