Hi all, I'm actually a bloody beginner in Seam but somehow managed to succesfully develop my first web app in Seam. Right now I'm trying to solve a problem where I need some further advice.
I have chosen a somewhat dynamic approach to save additional data of a user in the RDBMS. There are four main tables. user (id, name) | record (id, user_id) | data_value (id, record_id, data_type_id, value) | data_type (id, name, description) | | The data_type table is a simple table that holds a list of possible fields so to say where you can save values for. Those values should be saved for a user. Each user has its own record which consists of defined data_types. The relation data_value brings it all together, this is where the actual values for the defined data_values are stored. | | According SQL Create-Statements (MySQL): http://pastebin.com/f5883f89d | According Entity Beans: http://pastebin.com/m501ed44e | | I created a SLSB to retrieve a list of "DataValue" objects from the db. | | @Stateless | | @Name("recordList") | | public class RecordListAction implements RecordList, Serializable { | | | | private static final long serialVersionUID = 1L; | | | | @PersistenceContext | | private EntityManager em; | | | | @In | | private User user; | | | | @DataModel | | private List<DataValue> dataValues; | | | | // needed to prevent spurious warning | | // getResultList() returns a non generic version of List | | @SuppressWarnings("unchecked") | | @Factory("dataValues") | | public void getDataValues() { | | dataValues = em.createQuery( | | "select dv from DataValue dv " | | + "inner join dv.record as record " | | + "inner join dv.dataType as dataType " | | + "where record.user.id = :userId") | | .setParameter("userId", user.getId()) | | .getResultList(); | | } | | | | @Remove | | public void destroy() { | | } | | } | | I am able to output this list in a facelet. | | <h:dataTable id="dataValues" var="dataValue" value="#{dataValues}" rendered="#{dataValues.rowCount gt 0}"> | | <h:column> | | <f:facet name="header">Name</f:facet> | | <h:outputText value="#{dataValue.dataType.name}" /> | | </h:column> | | <h:column> | | <f:facet name="header">Value</f:facet> | | <h:outputText value="#{dataValue.value}" /> | | </h:column> | | </h:dataTable> | And now it comes to the interesting part (finally!). I want to be able to modify (for now; creating and deleting should be integrated later) the "DataValue" objects. Everything I did before was straightforward, i.e. retrieve one row of a table and edit its columns. But now I retrieve one or more rows with two columns (one with the data_type.name and one with the data_value.value) and want to edit them. | | I currently do not know where to start solving this problem. Maybe anyone of you can give me some hints to start?
