Stupid ? re dialog data

[Sean Comerford]

I've had no problem setting up a dialog but I can't figure out how to use
the dialog scoped data. I need a simple example I guess...

So assuming the following dialog:


  

  
  


  
  


I want to have a text input with a value bound to #{dialog.data.name} in
step1.jsp so I can refer to it in step2.jsp

You have to set up the dialog data yourself. One way to do that is with an
action state as the starting state for a dialog; for example:

 
   
  
   

   
   
 
   
...
  


The Setup state is an action state, so it invokes
dialogLauncher.setupPaymentDialog(), which returns a string that Shale
immediately uses as an outcome.

Here's the method:

public class DialogLauncher extends AbstractFacesBean {
   public String setupPaymentDialog() {
  // Create billpay data
  billpayData = new BillpayData();

  // Set dialog data with the handy setValue method
  // from org.apache.shale.view.AbstractFacesBean
  setValue("#{dialog.data}", billpayData);

  // This outcome takes us to the payment dialog's
  // first view state
  return "success";
   }
}

In my views, I have fields wired to my dialog.data:
