Primefaces SelectCheckboxMenu null value - java

I'm trying to get selected values from a selectCheckboxMenu, but all I'm getting is null in the console. It doesn't work with selectOneMenu too. Here's my jsf form:
<h:form id="mmaster">
<p:dataTable
value="#{devicesBean.devices}"
var="dev"
widgetVar="dt"
border="1"
paginator="true"
paginatorPosition="top"
rows="10"
>
<f:facet name="header">Devices</f:facet>
<p:column headerText="UDN" sortBy="#{dev.deviceUDN}" filterBy="#{dev.deviceUDN}" filterMatchMode="contains" emptyMessage="No Devices Found">
<h:outputText value="#{dev.deviceUDN}" />
</p:column>
<p:column headerText="FriendlyName" sortBy="#{dev.deviceFriendlyName}" filterBy="#{dev.deviceFriendlyName}" filterMatchMode="contains">
<h:outputText value="#{dev.deviceFriendlyName}" />
</p:column>
<p:column headerText="Model" sortBy="#{dev.deviceModel}" filterBy="#{dev.deviceModel}" filterMatchMode="contains">
<h:outputText value="#{dev.deviceModel}" />
</p:column>
<p:column headerText="Manufacturer" sortBy="#{dev.deviceManufacturer}" filterBy="#{dev.deviceManufacturer}" filterMatchMode="contains">
<h:outputText value="#{dev.deviceManufacturer}" />
</p:column>
<p:column headerText="Type" sortBy="#{dev.deviceType}" filterBy="#{dev.deviceType}" filterMatchMode="contains">
<h:outputText value="#{dev.deviceType}" />
</p:column>
<p:column headerText="Actions">
<p:selectCheckboxMenu value="#{devicesBean.selectAnnotations}">
<f:selectItems value="#{devicesBean.annotations}" />
</p:selectCheckboxMenu>
</p:column>
<p:column>
<p:commandButton value="Annotate" action="#{devicesBean.doSave}" process="#this">
<f:setPropertyActionListener value="#{dev}" target="#{devicesBean.device}" />
</p:commandButton>
</p:column>
</p:dataTable>
</h:form>
I wonder if there is a problem in the bean's scope, And this is my managed bean:
#ManagedBean
public class DevicesBean implements Serializable {
private static final long serialVersionUID = 1L;
private List<Device> devices;
private List<String> annotations;
private List<String> selectAnnotations = new ArrayList<String>();
private Device device;
#EJB
IOntoProcessor iop;
#EJB
IDevicesDao idd;
public DevicesBean() {
}
#PostConstruct
public void init() {
setDevices(idd.getAllDevices());
setAnnotations(iop.getAllAnnotations());
}
public List<Device> getDevices() {
return devices;
}
public void setDevices(List<Device> devices) {
this.devices = devices;
}
public List<String> getAnnotations() {
return annotations;
}
public void setAnnotations(List<String> annotations) {
this.annotations = annotations;
}
public Device getDevice() {
return device;
}
public void setDevice(Device device) {
this.device = device;
}
public List<String> getSelectAnnotations() {
return selectAnnotations;
}
public void setSelectAnnotations(List<String> selectAnnotations) {
this.selectAnnotations = selectAnnotations;
}
public void doSave() {
System.out.println(selectAnnotations);
System.out.println(device);
selectAnnotations = new ArrayList<String>();
}
}

You are trying to submit the form through the Button with value Annotate, which has been specified to process itself only:
This will only process the button and its associated form parameters, and no other element within the form.
<p:commandButton value="Annotate" action="#{devicesBean.doSave}" process="#this">
<f:setPropertyActionListener value="#{dev}" target="#{devicesBean.device}" />
</p:commandButton>
Either remove the process="#this", or replace it with process="#form"
<p:commandButton value="Annotate" action="#{devicesBean.doSave}" process="#form">
<f:setPropertyActionListener value="#{dev}" target="#{devicesBean.device}" />
</p:commandButton>
Two, declare your managed bean scope: Either #RequestScope or #SessionScoped will work fine.

Is it possible to filter a p:dataTable when filterBy is a List of Objects?

I'm using the component p:dataTable from Primefaces and I'm having a trouble to sort a list of objects.
I have a list of Emails and inside this list I have an other list with their email alias. This is my code:
public class Email {
private String idGoogle;
private String email;
public Email() {
}
public Email(String idGoogle, String email) {
this.idGoogle = idGoogle;
this.email = email;
}
public String getIdGoogle() {
return idGoogle;
}
public void setIdGoogle(String idGoogle) {
this.idGoogle = idGoogle;
}
public String getEmail() {
return email;
}
public void setEmail(String email) {
this.email = email;
}
}
public class EmailSector extends Email implements Cloneable {
private Sector sector = new Sector();
private String password;
private String domain;
private String description;
private List<Email> aliasList = new ArrayList<>();
private List<EmailSector> emailSectorList = new ArrayList<>();
public EmailSector() {
}
...
<h:panelGroup id="emailsTable" >
<div class="emailsTable" >
<p:dataTable id="filterTable" var="item" value="#{emailSectorBean.sessionBean.itemPagina.emailSectorList}"
widgetVar="dataWidget"
emptyMessage="Nenhum registro encontrado com os dados buscados.">
<p:column filterBy="#{item.email}" headerText="E-Mail" filterMatchMode="contains"
filterValue="#{emailSectorBean.sessionBean.filtroAlteracao}">
<h:outputText value="#{item.email}" />
</p:column>
<p:column filterBy="#{item.description}" headerText="Descrição" filterMatchMode="contains">
<h:outputText value="#{item.description}" />
</p:column>
<p:column filterBy="#{item.sector.description}" headerText="sector" filterMatchMode="contains">
<h:outputText value="#{item.sector.description}" />
</p:column>
<p:column headerText="Alias" filterBy="#{item.listaAlias}" filterMatchMode="contains">
<h:dataTable var="alias" value="#{item.listaAlias}" >
<p:column>
<h:outputText value="#{alias.email}"/>
</p:column>
</h:dataTable>
</p:column>
</p:dataTable>
</div>
</h:panelGroup>
At this point:
<p:column headerText="Alias" filterBy="#{item.aliasList}" filterMatchMode="contains">
<h:dataTable var="alias" value="#{item.aliasList}" >
<p:column>
<h:outputText value="#{alias.email}"/>
</p:column>
</h:dataTable>
</p:column>
I print all the alias of an Email Sector. The problem is the type of aliasList is Email... So I would like to know if it's possible to use filterBy with a List and how can I got this working?
Thanks
I solved it by overriding the toString method, just like this:
#Override
public String toString() {
return this.email;
}
And then I called the toString method in the filterBy attribute:
<p:column headerText="Alias" filterBy="#{item.aliasList.toString()}" filterMatchMode="contains">
<h:dataTable var="alias" value="#{item.aliasList}" >
<p:column>
<h:outputText value="#{alias.email}"/>
</p:column>
</h:dataTable>
</p:column>
It worked fine!

#ViewScoped

}

}
that because you remove it from the arraylist only not from the database
use em.remove(user)
Your delete action is only removing it from the scoped variable.
public String deleteAction(User user) {
userList.remove(user);
return null;
}
You need to also remove it from the database, via the entity manager. em.remove(object)
Try the following code with EntityManager using remove method.
#ViewScoped
#SessionScoped
#javax.faces.bean.ManagedBean(name = "logonTest")
public class LogonTest implements Serializable{
#PersistenceUnit(unitName="Webbeans_RESOURCE_LOCAL")
private EntityManagerFactory emf;
public List<User> getUserList() {
return userList;
}
public void setUserList(List<User> userList) {
this.userList = userList;
}
public List<User> userList = new ArrayList();
#PostConstruct
public void init(){
EntityManager em = emf.createEntityManager();
// Read the existing entries and write to console
Query q = em.createQuery("SELECT u FROM User u");
userList = q.getResultList();
System.out.println("Size: " + userList.size());
}
public LogonTest() {
}
public String deleteAction(User user) {
EntityManager em = emf.createEntityManager();
em.remove(user);
userList.remove(user);
return null;
}
}

Row selection with multiple p:dataTable

In the following scenario, where I have several dataTables that I build iterating over a ui:repeat tag, I have experienced that row listener returns null for selected elements that are not in the first table.
In order to understand the model object, I have several menus, and each of them contains several areas.
Any help will be much appreciated.
xhtml below:
<ui:repeat value="#{someBean.menus}" var="menu">
<p:dataTable var="area" value="#{menu.areas}"
rowKey="#{area.id}" selection="#{menu.area}" selectionMode="single">
<p:ajax event="rowSelect" listener="#{someBean.rowSelected}" />
<f:facet name="header">#{menu.name}</f:facet>
<p:column>
<f:facet name="header"></f:facet>
<h:outputText value="#{area.id}" />
</p:column>
<p:column>
<f:facet name="header">Area name</f:facet>
<h:outputText value="#{area.name}" />
</p:column>
</p:dataTable>
</ui:repeat>
ListDataModel java implementation:
public class Areas extends ListDataModel<Area> implements SelectableDataModel<Area>, Serializable {
private static final long serialVersionUID = -9102592194300556930L;
public Areas() {
}
public Areas(List<Area> data) {
super(data);
}
#Override
public Area getRowData(String rowKey) {
#SuppressWarnings("unchecked")
List<Area> areas = (List<Area>)getWrappedData();
for (Area area : areas) {
if (String.valueOf(area.getId()).equals(rowKey)) {
return area;
}
}
return null;
}
#Override
public Object getRowKey(Area area) {
return area.getId();
}
}
public class Menus extends ListDataModel<Menu> implements SelectableDataModel<Menu>, Serializable {
private static final long serialVersionUID = -4079772686830676202L;
public Menus() {
}
public Menus(List<Menu> data) {
super(data);
}
#Override
public Menu getRowData(String rowKey) {
#SuppressWarnings("unchecked")
List<Menu> menus = (List<Menu>)getWrappedData();
for (Menu menu : menus) {
if (String.valueOf(menu.getId()).equals(rowKey)) {
return menu;
}
}
return null;
}
#Override
public Object getRowKey(Menu menu) {
return menu.getId();
}
}
...in the bean someBean
public void rowSelected(SelectEvent event) {
Area selectedArea = (Area)event.getObject(); //This, is null for other tables except the first
System.out.println("SELECTED AREA:" + selectedArea);
//...
}
I am glad to show you the solution: replace ui:repeat with another p:dataTable !!!
<p:dataTable value="#{someBean.menus}" var="menu">
<p:column>
<p:dataTable var="area" value="#{menu.areas}"
rowKey="#{area.id}" selection="#{menu.area}" selectionMode="single">
<p:ajax event="rowSelect" listener="#{someBean.rowSelected}" />
<f:facet name="header">#{menu.name}</f:facet>
<p:column>
<f:facet name="header"></f:facet>
<h:outputText value="#{area.id}" />
</p:column>
<p:column>
<f:facet name="header">Area name</f:facet>
<h:outputText value="#{area.name}" />
</p:column>
</p:dataTable>
</column>

Datatable not refreshed after deleting or updating items

I was trying to implement sort functionality on primefaces dataTable.Sorting is working. But when I delete, update the dataTable items ,no effect (nothing changes) in dataTable. That is dataTable not getting cleared or refreshed.But in the database delete,update are occurring with out any issue.When I logged out and re-login, new list(dataTable) is fine.
employeeView.jsf:
<p:dataTable id="employees" value="#{employeeList.employees}"
var="employee" emptyMessage="No Employees found" rows="10"
paginator="true"

Why this table In-Cell editor, doesnt work?

I am trying to figure out, how the primefaces in-cell editor works.
For some reason, it does not work. I just see it activating and also i can type, but the values do not change. What is missing?

This is the managed bean
package controllers;
import crudfacades.SubjectFacade;
import entities.Subject;

#Named("subjectControllerUpdate")

currentSubject = new Subject();

this.currentSubject = currentSubject;
}
public List<Subject> getSubjects() {
return subjects;
}
public void setSubjects(List<Subject> subjects) {
this.subjects = subjects;
}
}
but when i click comfirm, the value in the UI is not changed
You've bound the value of the <p:dataTable> to retrieve() instead of getSubjects(). So every single getter call will get the values straight from the DB instead of the model.
and i see no changes in the database
You are not saving anything in the DB.
Fix your controller as follows:
#Named
#SessionScoped
public class SubjectControllerUpdate implements Serializable {
private DataModel<Subject> subjects;
#EJB
private SubjectFacade ejbFacade;
#PostConstruct
public void init() {
subjects = new ListDataModel<Subject>(ejbFacade.findAll());
}
public void save() {
ejbFacade.save(subjects.getRowData());
}
public List<Subject> getSubjects() {
return subjects;
}
}
with
<h:form>
<p:dataTable value="#{subjectControllerUpdate.subjects}" ...>
        <p:ajax event="rowEdit" listener="#{subjectControllerUpdate.save}" />
...
</p:dataTable>
</h:form>
Using DataModel<Subject> instead of List<Subject> is necessary in order to be able to get the current row.
