Gavin et al, I am still a bit confused about which scope to use for the @Out annotation. Let me provide a brief example and hopeful it demonstrates my misunderstanding.
I have the following stub backing bean: @Name( "userManager" ) | @Scope(CONVERSATION) | public class UserManagerBean { | @In( required = false ) | @Out( required = false, scope = CONVERSATION ) | private User user; | | public String create() { | return "/user/new.jspx"; | } | | public String view() { | return "/user/view.jspx"; | } | public String save() { | assert user != null; | // do whatever to save... | return view(); | } | | // ...other supporting methods, including @Begin and @End methods | } | Assume that the flow is: request create -> enter info -> save -> view and that the conversation is being created around this process by some other methods (meaning I know that I have a working conversation). I am curious to know why I need ScopeType.CONVERSATION on the @Out annotation. The assertion in the save() method passes, so I know at that point that the property "user" does indeed have a value. However, if I don't set the scope on the @Out annotation, by the time I get to view.jspx, the EL variables that reference "user" (such as #{user.name}) are all empty. Is it always necessary to use ScopeType.CONVERSATION for the @Out annotation if the component itself is in conversation scope?
