Multipage and Flash messages

[hwaastad]

Hi,
I have a multipage application, using p:commandbutton action="bean.navigate()" to navigate.

In the bean.navigate I'm adding a global flash message but the message is not displayed in the second view.
It needs a page refresh.

Navigating to a separate page, adding a global flash message it's ok.

Any recommendations are appreciated.

Hi and thanks for answering.
xhtml code is simple:

Code: Select all

<h:body>
        <p:growl id="messages" autoUpdate="true" globalOnly="true"/>
        <pm:page id="first">
            <pm:header id="header">
                Header
            </pm:header>
            <pm:content id="content">
                <h:form id="form">
                    <p:commandButton value="action" action="#{messageController.addMessage()}"/>
                </h:form>
            </pm:content>
            <pm:footer id="footer">
                Footer
            </pm:footer>
        </pm:page>
        <pm:page id="second">
            <pm:header id="header">
                Header
            </pm:header>
            <pm:content id="content">
                Contant Page 2
            </pm:content>
            <pm:footer id="footer">
                Footer
            </pm:footer>
        </pm:page>
    </h:body>

And the controller:

Code: Select all

public String addMessage() {
        log.info("Adding message");
        Messages.addFlashGlobalInfo("A Flash message");
        return "pm:second";
    }

Messages is an omnifaces utility.
Does'nt really matter where I put the growl, it's not shown.

A sample project is here:
https://github.com/hwaastad/MobileMessages.git

just do a mvn tomee:run and it's deployed on ROOT.

I never used flash scope, but from what I read it is used to have messages survive a jsf http page redirect. The Mobile pages work differently and a normal message should suffice.

Hi,
yes that's what I would expect, but still creating a normal facesmessage, growl still is not showing.

Yes, but mobile multipage is not using redirects
