Strange behavior with picklist inside tabview

[mehdisinger]

Hi,

I have a TabView containing a Picklist:

My xtml page:

Code: Select all

<h:form>
            <p:tabView var="auditorium" value="#{auditoriumController.auditoriums}">
                <p:ajax event="tabChange" listener="#{auditoriumController.onTabChange}"/>
                <p:tab title="#{auditorium.number}">
                    <p:fieldset id="auditoriumInfoFieldset" legend="Auditorium Info" toggleable="true" style="width: 45%; float: left">
                        <p:panelGrid>
                            ...
                        </p:panelGrid>
                    </p:fieldset>
                    <p:fieldset id="associatedDevicesFieldset" legend="Associated devices" toggleable="true" style="width: 45%;">
                        <p:pickList value="#{auditoriumController.devices}" var="device" itemValue="#{device}" itemLabel="#{device.manufacturer}" converter="deviceConverter">
                            <f:facet name="sourceCaption">Available</f:facet>  
                            <f:facet name="targetCaption">Associated</f:facet>
                            <p:ajax event="transfer" listener="#{auditoriumController.onDeviceTransfer}" />
                        </p:pickList>
                    </p:fieldset>
                </p:tab>
            </p:tabView>
        </h:form>

My backing bean:

Code: Select all

@ManagedBean(name = "auditoriumController")
@ViewScoped
public class AuditoriumController implements Serializable {

    @PostConstruct
    public void postConstruct() {
        devices = new DualListModel<>();
        auditoriums = auditoriumFacade.findAll();
        if (auditoriums != null && !auditoriums.isEmpty()) {
            setSelectedAuditorium(auditoriums.get(0));
            populateDeviceList();
        }
    }

    public void onTabChange(TabChangeEvent event) {
        setSelectedAuditorium((Auditorium) event.getData());
        System.out.println("onTabChange : " + selectedAuditorium);
        populateDeviceList();
    }

    private void populateDeviceList() {
        // Filling the dual list
    }
    
    public void onDeviceTransfer(TransferEvent event) { 
        for(Object item : event.getItems()) {
            Device device = deviceFacade.find(((Device) item).getId());
            // Doing my stuff with the items
            }
        }
    }
}

My converter (just in case)

Code: Select all

@FacesConverter(forClass=Device.class, value="deviceConverter")
public class DeviceConverter implements Converter {
    
    @Override
    public Object getAsObject(FacesContext fc, UIComponent uic, String string) {
        Device device = new Device();
        device.setId(Long.valueOf(string));
        return device;
    }

    @Override
    public String getAsString(FacesContext fc, UIComponent uic, Object o) {
        return String.valueOf(((Device) o).getId());
    }
    
}

The problem is that my method onTabChange is never called when the picklist is present. The method onDeviceTransfer is called correctly.
If I remove the picklist in my xtml page it works fine...
Any idea about what could cause this issue? Am I doing something wrong?

Thanks for your precious help !

Hi there,

Have you resolved this problem?... i have the same exact situation

It's driving me nuts !

[kukeltje]

If you have the Same situation, please try 3.5(.x)

And your specs are weird. Mojarra 2.1.6 is not jsf 2.2.0

Try upgrading mojarra to...

I'm using Primefaces 3.5.. but the problem persists... i gotta try the new 3.5.5 and see what happens

Last night i found the issue clearly identified on this link

https://code.google.com/p/primefaces/is ... t=&id=5280

Apparently this issue has not been resolved...
