Hello, In my application I have some managed-bean, which implements some Observer-like pattern to notify other beans of some action, so that those beans can refresh their state.
In order to do so I added a List<RefreshableBean> to my bean on which the action is invoked, which will call the refresh() method on all the objects in the list. In my faces-config.xml I added a managed-property on the bean with a list of entries of managed-bean to notify like this: <managed-bean> <managed-bean-name>messageAddBean</managed-bean-name> <managed-bean-class>tld.domain.application.MessageAddBean </managed-bean-class> <managed-bean-scope>session</managed-bean-scope> <managed-property> <property-name>refreshableBeans</property-name> <list-entries> <value>#{messageSearchBean}</value> <value>#{pendingOpenMessageList}</value> <value>#{pendingUrgentMessageList}</value> </list-entries> </managed-property> </managed-bean> What happens when I invoke the bean, which should call all refreshableBeans is that it will iterate over all elements in the list, but the list will only contain the first entry from the list ( the messageSearchBean ). If I change the order of the values in the xml, then the entry which is then the first one will be set in my list. All referenced managed-bean have <scope>session</scope>, so they should be available. Am I doing something wrong or does myfaces ignore the other entries in the list? I'm currently using MyFaces-1.1.5-snapshop, but noticed this already when I still was using 1.1.3. I'm also using jsf-spring, so that might be the cause of the problem, but thought I ask here first. Anybody seen this kind of behaviour? Any help is greatly appreciated!
