Good morning everyone. I've got a list of objects with a property which I need to edit (a quantity). Then, alongside that property I have a list of a second type of objects with a similar editable property (a quantity as well). I need to let the user edit these quantities, but I need to assure that the outer quantity is the sum of the inner quantities. Yes, I know it would be best not to have the outer edit at all, but it is a requisite.
So, I used a tr:table for the outer objects (with an inputText for the outer quantity) and the detailStamp facet in which I placed a second tr:table with the inner objects and an inputText to edit the inner quantities. Then I used a button to invoke an action on the bean that has the data, where I sum the inner fields and check the sum against the outer field. Suppose I have an outer line with the value 100 and two inner lines with 50 each. All is well. Now, if I edit the outer to 101 and one of the inner to 51, then click the button, I fail the verification, because the inner field still sum up to 100, instead of 101 ! I suppose there is a very good explanation for this, lifecycle-wise. Can anyone enlighten me why this happens and give me a hint on how to solve it? Thank you, Francisco
