AW: UIInput value and submitted values

[Bieringer.Dominik.nf]

As far as i know, that is because:               à Values are applied in APPLY_REQUEST_VALUES phase to the submittedValue field             à Values are converted/validated in the PROCESS_VALIDATION phase…             à The next phase is UPDATE_MODEL_VALUES phase… JSF applies the submittedValue to the value field (If validation/Convertion was sucecssfull)   Hope this helps… (See http://www-128.ibm.com/developerworks/java/library/j-jsf2/ for more information)   Dominik   Von: Madhav Bhargava [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Gesendet: Samstag, 11.

My validator is enclosed in one EditableValueHolder component and then tries to get the value from other EditableValueHolder component.   When I say – EditableValueHolder component = (EditableValueHolder)uiComponent; Component.getValue(); getValue() method returns me null even when the value is filled in and submitted. When I check the whole component I found that submittedValue attribute has the correct value and the value attribute was null.     Could anyone explain me the following:   What is the purpose of submittedValue when value is there? Even if the user while including say a <t:inputText> component specifies a property value=”#{}” then also the value is null when it goes to the validator’s validate method but the submittedValue is correctly populated?   Thanks, madhav **************** CAUTION - Disclaimer ***************** This e-mail contains PRIVILEGED AND CONFIDENTIAL INFORMATION intended solely for the use of the addressee(s).
