Application.createComponent(Dialog.COMPONENT_TYPE);

Don't forget to call the addChild method of the Component you want to add the newly created instance to.

Hint: with the binding attribute, standard to all jsf components including PrimeFaces, you can set the parent Component instance you need in your Bean.

hello
again

I tried this but it failed.

Application application = FacesContext.getCurrentInstance().getApplication();
Dialog dialog = (Dialog) application.createComponent(Dialog.COMPONENT_TYPE);
HtmlOutputText text = new HtmlOutputText();

HtmlPanelGrid panel_grid = (HtmlPanelGrid) application.createComponent(HtmlPanelGrid.COMPONENT_TYPE);

List pangrid_children = panel_grid.getChildren();

pangrid_children.clear();

panel_grid.setColumns(1);

panel_grid.setId("Panelgrid");

pangrid_children.add(text);
dialog.getChildren().add(panel_grid);

what did I do wrong

kind regards

as andyba already mentioned:

Don't forget to call the addChild method of the Component you want to add the newly created instance to.

Which means, you have to have a container in your page and you need to add the dialog as a child of this container inside of your bean
