Hi Michael! > But now I have a problem with orchestra when using partial submits (we use > ICEFaces by the way). > As there is no page refresh the request attribute CONVERSATION_CONTEXT_REQ > is not set. > I tried the following with the latest ICEFaces (1.6.0-DR5) and it works as expected. Though, I have to admit I am wondering WHY it works as as you stated Icefaces do not add the conversationContext= url parameter. It looks like it somehow captures the request map and provides the same map for the partial submit request (through the CopyingRequestAttributesMap).
Could you explain a little bit in detail what exactly you try to do ... or even better ... could you provide some sort of war which shows the problem - would be great. What I tried was to have a simple conversation scope bean and a form printing some conversation debugging stuff. If the output of the partial submit matches with the output above we were able find our conversation again.
