[ http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MYFACES-856?page=comments#action_12358216 ]
Simon Kitching commented on MYFACES-856: ---------------------------------------- UIComponentTag.doStartTag calls encodeBegin() only for components that do *not* render their children. For components like UIPanel that render their children, *no* calls of any sort are made on the component until after all the child components have been created. But that's too late in this case, as the create will fail due to the binding EL being evaluated as the child components are created :-( I'm looking into whether is is possible to customise the AliasBeanTag class to work around this... > t:aliasBean + binding + panelGrid causes exception > -------------------------------------------------- > > Key: MYFACES-856 > URL: http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MYFACES-856 > Project: MyFaces > Type: Bug > Reporter: Simon Kitching > > The following use of t:aliasBean causes an exception: > ==== including page > <%@ taglib uri="http://java.sun.com/jsf/html"; prefix="h"%> > <%@ taglib uri="http://java.sun.com/jsf/core"; prefix="f"%> > <%@ taglib uri="http://myfaces.apache.org/tomahawk"; prefix="t"%> > <f:view> > <h:panelGrid> > <t:aliasBean alias="#{target}" value="#{someBean}"> > <jsp:include page="included.jsp"/> > </t:aliasBean> > </h:panelGrid> > </f:view> > ==== included page > <%@ taglib uri="http://java.sun.com/jsf/html"; prefix="h"%> > <%@ taglib uri="http://java.sun.com/jsf/core"; prefix="f"%> > <%@ taglib uri="http://myfaces.apache.org/tomahawk"; prefix="t"%> > <f:subview id="foo"> > <h:inputText binding="#{target.input}"/> > </f:subview> > The thrown exception is: > javax.faces.el.PropertyNotFoundException: Base is null: target > at > org.apache.myfaces.el.ValueBindingImpl.resolveToBaseAndProperty(ValueBindingImpl.java:457) > at > org.apache.myfaces.el.ValueBindingImpl.setValue(ValueBindingImpl.java:245) > at > org.apache.myfaces.application.ApplicationImpl.createComponent(ApplicationImpl.java:434) > I believe the problem is that panelGrid renders its children.
