I'm new to JSF and trying to understand how include and param work, but have been stuck. Any help is much appreciated.
I have 2 simple pages (for testing purpose), Page1.xhtml and Page2.xhtml. I want to include Page2 into Page1 with one parameter using and in Page1. When I call Page2 directly, I can see the parameter being passed properly, but when I call Page1, Page2 is being included without the parameter. Below is the code.
Page1:
<h:body>
<h:form id="test">
<b>Page 1</b><br/>
<ui:include src="Page2.xhtml">
<ui:param name="id" value="123" />
</ui:include>
<b>End of Page 1</b>
</h:form>
Page2:
<h:head>
<f:view contentType="text/html"></f:view>
</h:head>
<h:body>
<h:form>
<h:outputLabel for="ID" value="ID on Page2: "/>
<h:outputText id="ID" value="#{pageTestBean.id}"/>
</h:form>
</h:body>
</html>
PageTestBean: @ManagedBean @SessionScoped public class PageTestBean {
private Long id=new Long(11111);
public void init() {
//doesn't do anything yet;
}
// Getters and Setters
public long getId() {
return id;
}
public void setId(long id) {
this.id = id;
}
}
I'm expecting to see "123" as the output Id on Page1, not "11111" which is the default value when no parameter is passed in. However, I always see 11111. Is my expectation wrong?
