Is there anybody who have a little example of a lazy loading with ace:dataTable?..
I can't understand how to implement the load method of the class LazyDataModel.. and how to fetch data from a Database through this method..
thanks!
ace:dataTable has already a "built in" lazy loading mechanism in ICEFaces
(at least for release 3.x and up).
No need to extend an AbstractList for this anymore.
All you need to do is add the lazy="true" to your tag, and make sure the "value" attribute points to a class that extends LazyDataModel... you just need to implement the abstract
method there that accepts start page, page size, sorting & filtering arguments.
Also don't forget to use pagination and determine the size of the page ("rows" attribute).
Check: ICEFaces docs Ver. 3 ace:dataTable
Here's working sample

ICEFaces ice/ace:DataTable underneath works with native Java Collections. Datatable accesses elements from your collection simply by invoking get(idx) method on your collection.
I suggest you should look into implementing lazy-loading/pagination on the lower level, like implementing your own java.util.AbstractList.
Start by implementing its abstract get() method and debugging, to understand how icefaces datatable works, alternatively you can check out ice/ace:dataTable ice/ace:dataPaginator sources.
Since IceFaces Ace is a copy/fork of PrimeFaces 2, PrimeFaces docs and samples may help. primefaces.org/showcase-labs/ui/datatableLazy.jsf
Pheraps it's quite off-topic, but to build the showcase examples:
go to http://www.icesoft.org/java/downloads/icefaces-downloads.jsf
you can select ICEfaces 4.x ICEfaces 3.x ICEfaces 1.x tab
download the ICEfaces-x.x.0-bin.zip file (you do the registration)
unzip and go to the folder you want compile, for example, in the command shell, go to
...\ICEfaces-3.3.0-bin.zip\ICEfaces-3.3.0-bin\icefaces\samples\showcase\showcase
launch the command (you must have maven):
mvn package
the you'll find showcase.war in
\ICEfaces-3.3.0-bin\ICEfaces-3.3.0-bin\icefaces\samples\showcase\showcase\target

My managed bean gets null values from a simple form in a jsf page. In reality I have a fairly developed interface but the problem is happening even with a simple form.
(JSF 2.1.0, java compiler 1.6, primefaces 6.0 and tomcat7)
It seems to be a duplicated question. But, 5 days ago I am looking for the solution to this strange problem. I found a lot of solutions, but it does not work for me. Maybe I did not quite understand them as the answer from BalusC (commandButton/commandLink/ajax action/listener method not invoked or input value not updated) .
The JSF page:
<?xml version='1.0' encoding='UTF-8' ?>

public void filtrer(ActionEvent e)
{

log.info("je filtre selon: " + getTypeSelected());
}
The console output:

2017-03-24 18:06:43 INFO ProjetMODBean:76 - je filtre selon: null
I tried to correct my error but a detail escapes me.
Imho your problem is process="#this" change it to process="#form" (it is default value so change it only if you have good reason) or add id to input and use process="#this idOfInputField".
See question.
Please post questions fully in english.
I will assume, that //Méthodes mean getter/setter for fields (JSF require getter/setter for inputs).
Also use injection for services.
Change method header from public void filtrer(ActionEvent e) to public void filtrer()
I have a CDI ViewScoped bean and a JSF page. After a couple of AJAX requests the bean somehow recreated.
Here is the full code of the application:
index.xhtml

Here is the backing CDI bean

Well I had the same problem when I tried it - Netbeans 8 and JSF 2.2.0 too.
Works for me after I updated Glassfish - grab javax.faces.jar from here - I took the very newest, 2.2.8-02, and replaced the one in glassfish/glassfish/modules.
Don't know what the error was or exactly when it was fixed though.
Hope it works for you too.
I am currently working on a project using Primefaces 4.0 and JEE 6. As a build-tool we use maven, and we got a JBoss Application Server.
So it was supposed to be simple. When a validation error occurs, I was supposed to prevent a tab-change in my view. Nothing big, but it needed to be done.
What happened next totally flabberghasted me, but first what I did:
Define a backing bean to handle the event.
Define a listener there.
Use <p:ajax /> to fire the tabChange event to my bean.
Well it was simple enough until there. When there were no validation errors, it worked just fine. Then I tried to validate the values in the view against my Model-Bean and was quickly stopped in my tracks.
As soon as I willingly produced errors in the View, to trigger the faces messages, the tabChange listener was not executed anymore. In fact, not even the #RequestScoped controller-class with the listener was constructed.
I proceeded to create a minimal working example with help of the Weld CDI maven archetype.
Now here I stand, at wits end and present to you my example:
home.xhtml:
I removed the surrounding xml-declaration and ui:define stuff, but that's what I took to reproduce it.
<h1>Hello World!</h1>
<p>
Your CDI bean
<code>HelloWorld</code>
says <span style="color: blue;">#{helloWorld.text}</span> using the
Unified EL.
</p>
<h:form id="bv">
<h2>Bean Validation examples</h2>
<p>Enforces annotation-based constraints defined on the model
class.</p>
<p:tabView id="tabView" effect="fade"
effectDuration="normal">
<p:ajax event="tabChange" update="tabView" listener="#{controller.tabChange}"/>
<p:tab title="Tab 1">
<table>
<tr>
<th style="text-align: right;"><h:outputLabel for="letters"
value="Letters:" /></th>
<td><p:inputText id="letters" value="#{helloWorld.letters}" />
<p:message for="letters" errorClass="invalid" /></td>
</tr>
</table>
</p:tab>
<p:tab title="Tab 2">
<p>Random text to be displayed</p>
</p:tab>
</p:tabView>
</h:form>
Controller.java:
here I only removed the package-declaration, for the protection of the innocent.
import java.io.Serializable;
import javax.annotation.PostConstruct;
import javax.enterprise.context.RequestScoped;
import javax.inject.Named;
import org.primefaces.event.TabChangeEvent;
#Named
#RequestScoped
public class Controller implements Serializable {
private static final long serialVersionUID = -1126987875831465303L;
public Controller() {
}
#PostConstruct
public void init() {
System.out.println("Constructed " + this.getClass().getSimpleName());
}
public void tabChange(final TabChangeEvent event) {
System.out.println("Listener was reached");
}
}
Last but not least, the model-bean, slightly shortened from what the archetype provides:
HelloWorld.java:
Again I removed the namespace declaration.
import javax.annotation.PostConstruct;
import javax.enterprise.inject.Model;
import javax.validation.constraints.NotNull;
import javax.validation.constraints.Pattern;
import org.hibernate.validator.constraints.NotEmpty;
public #Model
class HelloWorld {
private final String text = "Hello World!";
private String letters;
public HelloWorld() {
}
#PostConstruct
public void initialize() {
System.out
.println(this.getClass().getSimpleName() + " was constructed");
}
public String getText() {
return text;
}
#NotNull
#NotEmpty
#Pattern(regexp = "[A-Za-z]*", message = "must contain only letters")
public String getLetters() {
return letters;
}
public void setLetters(final String letters) {
this.letters = letters;
}
}
It seems that the JSF lifecycle interferes with what I want to do.
Taken from this german webiste:
It seems, that the event listener will only get invoked in the "Invoke Application"-phase.
Assuming that, it becomes quite obvious, that after "Process Validations" we skip to "Render Response" and our whole backing bean gets ignored.
It is possible to circumvent this, using immediate="true", but upon realizing there is a way better solution to the underlying problem I used that on, namely <p:wizard /> instead, that does exactly what I want.
I have a component on my view which i want to update from my bean.
It works only once. If i press the second button nothing happen, but the bean method in the actionlistener was called.
I checked the browser log with firebug and have no errors or something else which looks odd.
My Bean is in ViewScope. I'm using primefaces 3.5.
JSFPage:
<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml"
xmlns:h="http://java.sun.com/jsf/html"

actionListener="#{controller.activate()}" update=":myRootForm" />
<p:commandButton value="Deactivate"
actionListener="#{controller.resetFields()}" update=":myRootForm" />
</h:form>
</h:body>
</html>
This is the EJB code:
import javax.faces.component.UIViewRoot;
import javax.faces.component.html.HtmlInputText;
import javax.faces.context.FacesContext;
import org.apache.myfaces.extensions.cdi.core.api.scope.conversation.ViewAccessScoped;
import java.io.Serializable;
import javax.inject.Named;
#ViewAccessScoped
#Named("controller")
public class Controller {
private UIViewRoot viewRoot = FacesContext.getCurrentInstance().getViewRoot();
public void activate() {
HtmlInputText text = (HtmlInputText)
viewRoot.findComponent("myRootForm:text1");
text.setDisabled(false);
RequestContext.getCurrentInstance().update(text.getClientId());
}
public void deactivate() {
HtmlInputText text = (HtmlInputText)
viewRoot.findComponent("myRootForm:text1");
text.setDisabled(true);
RequestContext.getCurrentInstance().update(text.getClientId());
}
}
** Update:
I made the example a bit better to read.
When i'm using the "RequestScope" it is working, but i need the viewScope to hold my information.
For a better understanding why i want to do it this way:
I have several input components which i want to be available in several mode's.
The mode is indicated in a StyleClass (i.e. myChangeClass).
When i press the button i go through the component tree of my form and searching for the styleclass and activiate the buttons. I don't want to do this by holding for every component an attribute in my bean.
I don't know exactly what you're trying to achieve. I've added example below to help you.

Thanks to #fischermatte I found the problem was replace ice:commandButton for h:commandButton. But when I applied this to the original complete form and didn't work. The fileEntryListener method is never called. Can someone see the error here?
Logically the previous example and the code below have the same web.xml, faces-config.xml, etc. Note the button to submit the file is h:commandButton, and there is a ice:commandButton for complete form. I already tried to change this por en h:cb.
Here is the original form (that is display in a popup/modal window) and bean:

I think I figured out why is not working, but need some help with the fix. I made the corrections as #fischermatte advice me, but didn't work.
To reach this page with the form, first have to navigate throw a the main page /admin/admin.html, if a look the URL in the browser appears http://localhost:8084/iTablero/admin/admin.html. This page has a menu, one of this menu options bring me to the page with the problematic form. But, because is an AJAX call (if i'm not wrong) the URL in the browser does not change, it keeps the http://localhost:8084/iTablero/admin/admin.html. And the fileEntry never calls the listener.
Now, if I enter the URL by myself http://localhost:8084/iTablero/admin/usuariosList.html, the page is displayed correctly as before, but now THE FILEENTRY WORKS PERFECTLY!!!
I have no idea how to fix this, will have to use redirects? I think is something around AJAX.......help pls! :-D
Update 3
That is the menu, without redirect is not working.
<h:form>
<ice:menuBar orientation="horizontal">
<ice:menuItem value="Tutores" action="tutoresList"/>
<ice:menuItem value="Usuarios" action="usuariosList"/>
<ice:menuItem value="Tableros" action="tablerosList"/>
<ice:menuItem value="Simbolos" action="simbolosList"/>
<ice:menuItem value="Estadisticas" action="estadisticas"/>
<ice:menuItem value="Salir" action="#{adminBean.logout()}"/>
</ice:menuBar>
</h:form>
With action="usuariosList?faces-redirect=true" works fine.
Already test with forward navigation to a basic page form with only a FileEntry and doesn't work too. Again, if I use redirect, works fine. I think is some kind of issue with this component and forward navigation.
You have to use JSF's commandbutton instead of icefaces's: <h:commandButton type="submit" value="Subir archivo"/>. It is a known issue in ICEFaces, see ace:fileEntry wiki.
Update 1
Plus you either remove the rendered attribute in the popup or update the popup when opening it like here:
<h:form>
<h:commandButton value="Show Popup" action="#{usuariosBean.showPopupAction}">
<f:ajax render=":popupPanelGroup"/>
</h:commandButton>
