Hi there, When interacting with the DataTable component I have to define a boolean field on the domain object that represents a row in the table to allow multiple checkbox selection. Is this to right way to proceed with this development?
I could for example have a domain object called 'Student' that has been delivered to me by others in an organisation. I do no control the development of this object, but to interact with it through a multiple select table I have to define a UI only used field on the above object. If on the other hand I settled for single radio button selects on the table then I could use the getter methods on the UI component to identify which object the user is interacting with. I am new to JSF but to me this seems like a cross over of layers. To me the domain object should not have to define this field. I was looking at the example under the trinidad/ADF project and there seems to be a table component that would allow me to gain a list of the rows that were checked. Is there anything I have over looked within the core myfaces API project and/or tomahawk projects? How do other navigate through this issue? Do people end up creating wrappers for the data and then display them within the DataTable instance? Many thanks Trent
