Has anyone gotten the displaytag to work with JSF? I'd like to use it instead of <h:dataTable> for it's sorting/paging capabilities. I tried integrating it and had a couple of issues:
1. My managed bean's "users" property isn't exposed to the request scope unless I use a dataTable before my display tag. Is there an easy way to simply say "put managed bean in request" so JSP tags can access it?
2. I tried putting a commandLink in one of my columns, but it doesn't seem to work. This is likely b/c the tag exposes a variable in page scope and JSF tags can't read page-scoped variables. Maybe someone knows of a workaround?
<display:table name="${userList.users}" class="list" requestURI="" id="userList">
<display:column property="id" sort="true" title="${idKey}">
<h:commandLink action="#{userForm.edit}" value="#{user.id}">
<f:param name="id" value="#{user.id}"/>
</h:commandLink>
</display:column>
<display:column property="firstName" sort="true" title="${firstNameKey}"/>
<display:column property="lastName" sort="true" title="${lastNameKey}"/>
<display:setProperty name="basic.empty.showtable" value="true"/>
</display:table>
Thanks,
Matt
