Bean value update problem in jsf 1.1

Question

I have One Jsf form that contains 2 Beans. First Bean scope: Session. Second Bean scope: request.

When some values are added via First Bean to second Bean, the updated value is not displayed in the form. I don't know how to do. Please help me.

Answer 1

Either you fired a redirect which caused the request scoped bean being renewed, or the values are updated at the wrong moment which caused them being overridden later in the JSF lifecycle.

To fix the first, ensure that you aren't including <redirect/> in navigation case nor did call ExternalContext#redirect() in bean action method. To fix the second, well, run a debugger. This article may also help a lot in understanding what's going on under the JSF hoods.

Answer 2

BalusC has shown what are the possible reasons for this problem.

In case it is the redirection one, removing the redirect solves the problem, but adds another - the user is asked to resubmit the form if he refreshes the page.

A preferred way to achieve such transitions from one page to another is to use a conversation. MyFaces Orchestra provides a special conversation scope to solve this and many more problems.
