focus cannot locate targets inside UIData elements
--------------------------------------------------
Key: TOMAHAWK-1607
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/TOMAHAWK-1607
Project: MyFaces Tomahawk
Issue Type: Bug
Components: New Component
Affects Versions: 1.1.6
Reporter: Mike Kienenberger
Assignee: Mike Kienenberger
focus cannot generate correct clientIds for targets inside UIData elements
because UIComponent.findComponent() does not preserve row index information.
I noticed this in my legacy 1.1.6 app, but I suspect after glancing at the
latest Tomahawk 1.1.9 code that the problem still persists.
However, I don't know how much focus is really used anymore -- it never made it
out of the sandbox, and ajax makes doing much of this a lot easier now.
I created a workaround for focus by reimplementing a local version of
findComponent() in a custom focus subclass and this workaround will work,
except in those cases where a parent component had customized findComponent()
behavior which I will attach to this issue.
A more modern solution would likely be to dump findComponent for
invokeOnComponent which correctly sets the rowIndex.
