i have developed a custom component with two input fields but it is not working properly. The problem is that, in *decode *method when we use to call setSubmittedValue(), we can only pass one argument in it. Then it updates only one value in the manage bean. The question is how can i update two values in decode method. is it a limitation of custom components that we can use only one input field in one custom component?
Yes, each UIComponent is expected to have only one "value". Of course the "value" can be an object with multiple fields.
The single "value" object can be rendered as multiple fields in the generated page. And the decode phase can look for multiple submitted request parameters and combine them to form a single "value" object to be stored as the component's submitted value. But a component can't have "multiple values".
