Hi, I am using myfaces 1.1, icefaces 1.8.1 on WAS 6.0
The controller (backing bean) action methods handle RuntimeException from the service layer. Depending on the exception an exception handler will put an appropriate message into FacesContext. For that I have created a utility method: public static void putMessage(String key, Severity severity, String summary, String detail) { FacesContext.getCurrentInstance().addMessage(key, new FacesMessage(severity, summary, detail)); } In the controller this method is used to put messages. When the page is displayed the messages appear properly. However when a user clicks on a commandButton then the control goes to the action method bound to the commandButton. This should not happen because there are FacesMessages with FacesMessage.SEVERITY_ERROR. I checked immediate="true" has not been set on the commandButton component. Is my understanding not correct that if there are FacesMessages with Severity = SEVERITY_ERROR in the FacesContext then the invoke application phase will not happen and the control would come back to the current page in error?
