Yes to both of you. All you need to do is update your backing data
model in the action -- pretty convenient :-)
Ie, if you have something like
<h:dataTable value="#{sharkEngine.acceptedAssignments}"
<h:commandLink action="#{sharkEngine.action.showActivity}"
then in #{sharkEngine.action.showActivity} you change the value of
sharkEngine.acceptedAssignments to be the updated list.

So then my problem is how to have the datatable contains old datas
before action and new datas after action...

u r right. u can use preserveDataModel="true" in
datatable. if it is true then action method surely be
invoked. But the problem is if u want to delete the
row from table and afetr deletion you want to display
the same page then row will be deleted from DB but
page will contain that row. I am looking for the soln.
