Other clues to what I may be doing wrong:
1. If I use the <t:schedule> tag to place a tag-created (distinct from my
managed bean-created) schedule directly below the dynamically created
schedules I see the following behaviour when clicking the tab-created
schedule:
a. If the dynamically created schedule is present (e.g. executed) a click on
the tag-created schedule fails in the same way, e.g. method not found.
b. If I comment out the creation of the dynamically created schedule, a
click on the tag-created schedule succeeds!
Suggesting that my creation technique in the managed bean is doing something
evil.
2. I am creating the dynamic components in the setter of the parent
component. I was unable to create them in the backing bean constructor, as
the parent component is not yet instantiated. I see references to an
"init()" method of managed beans in the literature but cannot create an
effective one. A simple public void init() is never invoked.
The setter looks like this:
public void setTabbedPaneTarget(HtmlPanelTabbedPane tabbedPaneTarget) {
this.tabbedPaneTarget = tabbedPaneTarget;
if (tabbedPaneTarget != null && tabbedPaneTarget.getChildCount() ==
0) {
populateTabs(tabbedPaneTarget);
}
}
where populateTabs does the dirty work of instantiating tabs and a schedule
as a child of each, shown below.
