Re: ExtVal: ELHelper composite component problem
Dear Gerhard, thank you for the quick reply. I am using the ExtVal library in my custom code to get further information about the value binding in order to map errors (from our backend) that occur at the Invoke Application phase to the corresponding UIInput-fields. That means, I need to know for each UIInput-object the bound backing bean object and the attribute name, both are described by the EL expression in the value-attribute of the UIInput (e.g., #{cc.attrs.person.name} - Backing Bean object is person1:Person, attribute name is name; person1 is just an example of an existing object at runtime). If the ELHelper is not able to resolve cc.attrs expressions, I would be grateful if you could recommend me another solution.

Re: ExtVal: ELHelper composite component problem
Hi It could be good to have more information about what you are trying to do. In myfaces there is a special code that handles #{cc} resolution, using the Location object to identify the right composite component from the composite component stack, so in theory mojarra could have something similar and that could be the source of the problem. regards, Leonardo Uribe 2010/6/2 Rene Stehr why-de...@gmx.de Dear Gerhard, thank you for the quick reply.

Re: ExtVal: ELHelper composite component problem
hi rene, it isn't an extval issue. this new mechanism of jsf 2 needs a special context. e.g. during the validation process jsf 2 builds it automatically. (as you see in the el-helper some additional tricks are needed to get some parts of the information.) so it works for extval (as well as extval add-ons). your code gets invoked outside the needed context. that's the reason why it won't work. however, you can try to use UIComponent#invokeOnComponent (or UIComponent#visitTree) for your special requirements. regards, gerhard http://www.irian.at Your JSF powerhouse - JSF Consulting, Development and Courses in English and German Professional Support for Apache MyFaces 2010/6/2 Rene Stehr why-de...@gmx.de Dear Gerhard, thank you for the quick reply.

Re: ExtVal: ELHelper composite component problem
Hello, I need for each UIInput object the backing bean and the attribute name that are bound to this component. A simple example: // sample Backing Bean @ManagedBean(name=person) class Person{ private String name; private String surname; private Address address; ... } // sample xhtml-page h:inputText id=inputField1 value=#{person.name}/ h:inputText id=inputField2 value=#{person.surname}/ address:addressCC id=address address=#{person.address}/ // sample composite component composite:interface composite:attribute name=address/ /composite:interface composite:implementation h:inputText id=inputField3 value=#{cc.attrs.zipcode}/ /composite:implementation The information I need is the value binding at runtime. For this example, that would be: 1. inputField1 = base object: person, attribute name:name 2. inputField2 = base object: person, attribute name:surname 3. inputField3 = base object: address, attribute name:zipcode If a have such a map, I am able to map the backend event error occured at 'Person.address.zipcode' to the corresponding UIComponent. The simplest way to get this data is the method ELHelper.getPropertyDetailsOfValueBinding(), which unfortunately does not work for the inputField3. I hope that descibes my concern in more detail.

SOLVED: ExtVal: ELHelper composite component problem
Hi Gerhard, after some hours of intensive debbugging, I have found the differences between the EL resolution at render and invoke-application time. It seems that the FacesContext is used as temporary saving location for the NamingContainer of the composite component, which is currently rendered (saved in the attributes-map with the key: UIComponent.CURRENT_COMPOSITE_COMPONENT). In the class ContextualCompositeValueExpression, this attribute is read for the treatment of composite components, which enables to resolve cc.attrs expressions. If I set the CURRENT_COMPOSITE_COMPONENT attribute manually before calling the ELHelper, the return-value is not null and holds the expected data. Code: // namingCont is the NamingContainer which holds the current UIComponent comp // set the naming container fctx.getAttributes().put(UIComponent.CURRENT_COMPOSITE_COMPONENT, namingCont); // get the property details ELHelper helper = ExtValUtils.getELHelper(); PropertyDetails details = helper.getPropertyDetailsOfValueBinding(comp); // remove the naming container fctx.getAttributes().remove(UIComponent.CURRENT_COMPOSITE_COMPONENT); However, I'm not sure if this could lead to negative side effects. I will test the methods that you have recommended (UIComponent#invokeOnComponent UIComponent#visitTree). Maybe the CURRENT_COMPOSITE_COMPONENT-attribute is set automatically while traversing the view-root.
