Hiya,
here is my problem:
I have added a new parameter for the CoreChooseDate component. I can
easily access this new parameter (concerning weekendSelectable) while
developping using JDev. I set this parameter value at "false" since its a
boolean value of either true or false (code example:)
<f:view>
<af:document title="All purposes tests">
<af:form>
<af:chooseDate weekendSelectable="false" id="testDateSelector"
minValue="1983-05-24" maxValue="1986-05-24" rendered="true"/>
<af:selectInputDate chooseId="testDateSelector" />
Now, I've also added into the renderer (ChooseDateRenderer) a new method
doing :
private String _getWeekendSelectable(FacesBean bean)
{
return toString(bean.getProperty(_weekendSelectableKey));
}
Of course, _weekendSelectableKey is a private propertyKey and is fetched
in the findTypeConstants method with :
_weekendSelectableKey = type.findKey("weekendSelectable");
Now in the EncodeAll method (the method using for rendering) I'm calling
this method to _getWeekendSelectable(bean) and I'm correctly returned the
value (which I set at false).
My problem is when I'm testing the page and when I change the month in the
chooseDate calendar, somehow the property is lost. I've added a println in
the code, and what gets returned from _getWeekendSelectable(bean) is
"null".
I have no clue at what happens for why this propertyKey get lost when I
try to navigate in the chooseDate calendar. (by get lost I mean that the
bean passed to EncodeAll doesn't contain a reference on the
_weekendSelectable key I can retrieve the first time the page is rendered)
Anybody got a small idea why this happen and/or where should I look to
understand/correct this behavior?
