Programatically disclosing tab does not cause tab contents to be displayed

Question

I'm using Jdev 11g, update 2.
I have a page with a panelStretchLayout. The Start facet has a tree component. The Center facet has a panelTabbed component with 2 showDetailItems, each with different panelForms.
Manually clicking on the tabs shows the correct contents.
The tree has a SelectionListener mapped to a managed bean method. When a node is selected, the bean method sets one of the showDetailItems to disclosed.
There is PRR for the showDetailItems based on the tree.
This code does cause the right tab to become current. The problem is that the tab contents do not also display IF that tab was not previously the disclosed one.
An example:
Tree shows Departments & Employees, The first tab shows the selected Dept from the tree in a form, the other shows the selected Employee from the tree in a form.
When the page is run, the Dept tab is disclosed by default because it is the first one.
Select a Dept in the tree. The Dept tab remains disclosed and the correct Dept is displayed.
Select an Emp in the tree. The Emp tab become disclosed but it is blank. The Emp form does not appear.
Select a Dept in the tree to reset tabs.
Now manually click the Employee tab. The Employee formis displayed correctly with the last Emp selcted from the tree.
Select a Dept in the tree. Now the Dept tab becomes disclosed but it is blank.
My first thought was that this is a PRR problem with the tab children. But I've tried setting PRR on the panelForms so they are refreshed when the showDetailItems are refreshed. That didn't help.
I've also tried setting the rendered and visible properties for the tab child (form) programatically. No luck.
My current code for the selectionListener is:
public void setSelData(SelectionEvent selevt)
RichTree tree = (RichTree)selevt.getSource();
RowKeySet sel = tree.getSelectedRowKeys();
Iterator seliter = sel.iterator();
while (seliter.hasNext())
Object rowKey = seliter.next();
tree.setRowKey(rowKey);
FacesCtrlHierNodeBinding node =
(FacesCtrlHierNodeBinding)tree.getRowData();
String viewDefName = node.getHierTypeBinding().getStructureDefName();
if (viewDefName.contains("Dept"))
setSelDeptNo((oracle.jbo.domain.Number)node.getAttribute("Deptno"));
OperationBinding ob =
(OperationBinding)bindings.get("setCurrentRowWithKeyValue1");
ob.execute();
} else
setSelEmpId((oracle.jbo.domain.Number)node.getAttribute("Empno"));
OperationBinding ob =
(OperationBinding)bindings.get("setCurrentRowWithKeyValue");
ob.execute();
if (viewDefName.contains("Dept"))
panTab.getChildren().get(0).getAttributes().put("disclosed", false);
panTab.getChildren().get(1).getAttributes().put("disclosed", true);
empsTab.setDisclosed(false);
empsTab.setDisabled(true);
deptsTab.setDisabled(false);
deptsTab.setDisclosed(true);
} else
deptsTab.setDisclosed(false);
deptsTab.setDisabled(true);
empsTab.setDisabled(false);
empsTab.setDisclosed(true);*/
panTab.getChildren().get(1).getAttributes().put("disclosed", false);
panTab.getChildren().get(0).getAttributes().put("disclosed", true);
}

Answer 1

That was it. I don't need to set up PPR for the showDetailItems either - just the panelTabbed. I'll remember to walk up and try PPR on all the parent components next time. Thanks.
