I have a form to capture the title and file name of an office document. The
form has a commandLink to invoke a backend method that then builds the
necessary LiveEdit url and redirects to that url. This works fine and Word is
invoked and the document has the appropriate title and filename.
I also need to be able to force the ajax region that defines the form to
refresh to hide the input fields (for title and file name) and then display a
launch message (not yet included). I have tried a number of different
approaches to make this happen but none have worked. I have attached relevant
code snippets below.
Any pointers/ideas? Need more info?
This is the code that validates the filename and then redirects... to the
livedit URL (liveCreateInContextURL is a modified version of the
Nuxeo-provided liveCreate code)
public String createOfficeDocument() throws ClientException {
// need to validate the date again! date is required
if (!DocumentDatePrefix.isFilePrefixValid(fileName)) {
facesMessages.add("Invalid file name prefix. All file names must
start with a valid date in the format yyyyMMdd");
return ACTION_PAGE_QUICK_LAUNCH;
}
redirectUrl =
officeTemplateListManager.liveCreateInContextUrl(quickLaunchName, docTitle,
fileName);
FacesContext context = FacesContext.getCurrentInstance();
HttpServletResponse httpResponse = (HttpServletResponse)
context.getExternalContext().getResponse();
try {
httpResponse.sendRedirect(redirectUrl);
} catch (IOException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
// reset attributes
setDocTitle("");
setFileName("");
return "";
}
The XHTML that collects the data. I have tried a number of different options
and none have worked
