I think I understand whats happening now. Yes I have it as you said. It is being called in renderView phase and apply request values phase. In my case getAllEmployees being called again when I hit Delete Employee button which is getting the list of employees again.

For example, if you have (you probably do): <t:dataTable value="#{bean.allEmployees}"> During the process* methods the rows will be iterated and therefore your "getAllEmployees()" method will be called. Add some logging or system.out and should see when it is getting called. -Andrew On 6/19/06, Surapuraju, Vamsi <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > All I have in that method is a call to stateless ejb which returns > list of employees. > > Below is how it is. > > public class DeptBackingBean { > List employees; > > public List getAllEmplyees() { > //code to get all emps > DeptLocal deptLocal = DepartmentSlsbUtil > .getLocalHome().create(); > employees = deptLocal .getAllemployees(); > return employees; > } > > public void deleteEmployee() { > //some code to delete > } > } > Thank You > > Vamsi Surapuraju > 724 709 2391 > > -----Original Message----- > From: Andrew Robinson [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] > Sent: Monday, June 19, 2006 1:22 PM > To: MyFaces Discussion > Subject: Re: bean with request scope stays longer than I expected???? > > Where is the code (and where is it called) that loads the employees > list? > > On 6/19/06, Surapuraju, Vamsi <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > > > > > HI, > > below is the sample code > > > > public class DeptBackingBean { > > List employees; > > > > public getAllEmplyees() { > > //code to get all emps > > } > > > > public deleteEmployee() { > > //some code to delete > > } > > } > > > > On my jsf page I use getAllEmplyees() to get list and use datatable > > to > > > display them.
