Hi,
there are just two assignments to formData:
@OnEvent(value = EventConstants.PREPARE_FOR_RENDER, component = "searchForm")
void prepareForRender()
{
formData = new ServiceSearchFormData();
// more initialization here, i.e. calling setters like
formData.setCity(DEFAULT_CITY_NAME);
}
...
@OnEvent(value = EventConstants.PREPARE_FOR_SUBMIT, component = "searchForm")
void prepareForSubmit()
{
formData = new ServiceSearchFormData();
}
Cheers
Jarda
