<p:column selectionMode="multiple" /> gone?

[sjd0103]

I'm using Build #150 (May 5, 2010 1:04:24 AM) from http://www.primefaces.org:8080/hudson/j ... lastBuild/.

When using this code:

Code: Select all

 <p:column  selectionMode="multiple" /> 

inside of a datatable

Code: Select all

<p:dataTable binding="#{whopperBK.gridUserRoles}"     value="#{whopperBK.gridTempUserRolesToAdd}"
                                         dynamic="true"   var="userRole"  selection="#{whopperBK.checkedUserRoles}">
                               <p:column  selectionMode="multiple" />
                                <p:column width="70" sortBy="#{userRole.roleName}" >
                                    <f:facet name="header">
                                        <h:outputText value="Role" />
                                    </f:facet>
                                    <h:outputText value="#{userRole.roleName}"/>
                                </p:column>
</p:dataTable>

the following .netbeans IDE 'error' shows:
Error: "The attribute selectionMode is not defined in the component's interface"
AND no checkboxes are rendered in the datatable

Weird. Just me? Funky Build?

Hi,

It is disabled for now during the reimplementation of datatable, we'll reenable it soon hopefully.

[sjd0103]

Thanks much for the response! Now if there was only a way for me to tell when it becomes enabled! Should I add an issue so that I can track which build it will be fixed in or is there already a related issue?

Thanks again!

There is no issue yet, feel free to create one and post the link here.

As we unwillingly break people's applications with this bold decision, it has a high priority to reenable

Hi,

I am trying to implement multiple row selection using checkbox select in a datatable using the current version (2.0.1). As I see from your earlier post selection column feature is disabled. Could you let me know if there is any known work around for this? I don't want to use selection by clicking on the row as there are columns which need to be editable such as other columns with checkboxes which seem to get disabled.

Cheers,
Manoj

Hi Manoj,

This can be implemented manually placing a checkbox in column and binding a map<String,Boolean> to it. An example;
