[ http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MYFACES-213?page=comments#action_63966 ] Brandon Goodin commented on MYFACES-213: ----------------------------------------
I noticed that when i click the commandLink in the previously stated scenario that the UIViewRoot does not have it's queueEvent called. Therefore by the time _broadcastForPhase method is called there are no events to iterate over and therefore the action method on my backing bean is never called. I'm continuing to debug this issue and hoping i can provide a patch soon. If there is any assistance i can get from the developers on where i might look further that would be great. Thanks. > commandLink does not work in dataList > ------------------------------------- > > Key: MYFACES-213 > URL: http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MYFACES-213 > Project: MyFaces > Type: Bug > Versions: 1.0.9 beta > Environment: Tomcat 5.0, Win2k, JDK 1.4.2_06 > Reporter: Brandon Goodin > Priority: Critical > > I've been trying to get a simple commandLink to work in a dataList. I have > the dataList bound to a UIData component > (binding="#{categoryAdmin.ancestorTree}") on the backing bean. It properly > displays links.

No error meassages are written to the screen or logs. > Things i have tried with no success are: > - placing my backing bean in session rather than request > - placed <h:messages/> on the jsp to see any error messages (none appear) > - Debugged the phases in the LifeCycleImpl.
