---------------------------------------

             Summary: Allow use the flowId as a nodeId inside the same flow
                 Key: MYFACES-3859
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MYFACES-3859
             Project: MyFaces Core
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: JSR-344
    Affects Versions: 2.2.0
            Reporter: Ludovic Pénet
            Assignee: Leonardo Uribe


The user reported this simple example:

    @Produces
    @FlowDefinition
    public Flow defineFlow(@FlowBuilderParameter FlowBuilder flowBuilder) {
            String flowId = "flux";
        flowBuilder.id("", flowId);
        flowBuilder.viewNode(flowId, 
                "/" + flowId + "/" + flowId + ".xhtml").
                markAsStartNode();
        flowBuilder.returnNode("returnFromFlux").
                fromOutcome("#{flowScopedBean.return}");
 
        return flowBuilder.getFlow();        
    }

Please note there is a view node with the same name used by the flowId as 
nodeId. The current algorithm does not detect this case, so it is interpreted 
like if the user want to enter into the flow, causing a loop. But the code in 
transition(...) avoid the recursion and instead get out of the flow. 

It is better if we check this case and deal with it properly before enter into 
a flow. 

Please note in a normal case click to enter into a flow twice cause get out of 
the flow and enter into the flow again, which is correct. But in this case, the 
resulting flow will not have that behavior and instead the navigation goes to 
the node identified as start node without exit from the flow.
