Re: Wiki entry "ExecutingMethodsFromLinkButtonParameters": how can it works?

[Cosma Colanicchia]

Thank you for the response, but I found a solution that doesn't requires binding the dataTable on my backing bean. In fact, it is the exact one described in the wiki, I had to remove preserveDataMode="true" to make it work. Having to session-scope my DataModel anyway for other reasons, I think that this feature isn't really needed in my case.

I've always done this by using <t:dataTable
binding="#{bean.myUIDataComponent}" and calling
myUIDataComponent.getRowData().    The UIData component will set the
rowIndex.
