Hello all, This post might be a bit of topic on this list, but I decided to post anyhow, since I'm quite confused about a problem I'm having at the moment. Maybe somebody can enlighten me with some great insight. Otherwise: Sorry for bothering you.
The problem I'm having occurs when I'm using ui:repeat (Facelets) to iterate over a List. The entries of the list contain object which have another List nested within them and I again use a ui:repeat to iterate over the entries in the nested list, to create <h:inputText /> for all nested items. I use this constuction on several tabs,which each have a seperate action button. Using the updateActionListener I determine on which tab the user was when submitting the form and will save only those entries on that specific tab. The user submits each form and goes to the next tab. All goes well until they submit the form on the final tab. From that moment on just the very first entry of the first nested list gets rendered and more strangely: It happens only on my test and production-server (Linux) and not on my development machine (WinXP). I downgraded my local java version to 1.5.0_11 to match the version of the server and made sure both machines use the same version of Tomcat (5.5.20), but still I could not reproduce the problem locally. Using some logging and debugging I determined that the managed-bean does contain more than just that signle entry. Initially I had java 1.6.0 on my local machine, so I tried running the application on the test-server with Java 1.6.0 and the problem did not occur anymore, so that appair to be the obvious solution, but it doesn't stop me for wondering what might be the cause of this problem. ( Especially since an upgrade to Java 6 on the server requires some additional testing of other applications as well, which doesn't quite fit neetly within the planned schedule. ) Any suggestions how I could further proceed with the investigationof this problem are highly appreciated. With kind regards, Marco Beelen. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Notice: This e-mail message, together with any attachments, contains information of Merck & Co., Inc.
