I'm implementing a p:dataTable component, based on the Primefaces Showcase
The code is:
<p:dataTable
id="newDataTable"
editable="true"
editMode="cell"
var="item"
value="#{myBean.listNewDataTable}">
<p:ajax event="cellEdit" listener="#{myBean.newCellEditListener}" update="@this"/>
<p:column width="150" >
<p:cellEditor>
<f:facet name="output">
<h:inputText value="#{item.description}" readonly="true"/>
</f:facet>
<f:facet name="input">
<p:selectOneMenu value="#{item.id}" style="width: 90%;">
<f:selectItems value="#{myBean.productsMap.entrySet()}" var="entry" itemValue="#{entry.key}" itemLabel="#{entry.value}" />
</p:selectOneMenu>
</f:facet>
</p:cellEditor>
</p:column>
-- More Data --
</p:dataTable>
And the backing bean method:
public void newCellEditListener(CellEditEvent event){
... Some work here ...
}
When the value on the editable cell is changed, the p:cellEditor works as expected.
The problem is:
When the value on the editable cell remains unchanged, the p:cellEditor shows the item.id when it should actually be showing the item.description.
Am I missing something obvious? Do I need additional configuration?
I have been googling for a tip or an answer, without success.
UPDATE
Same problem persists on the following code:
<p:column headerText="Money" width="150" >
<p:cellEditor >
<f:facet name="output">
<h:inputText value="#{actual.money}" readonly="true">
<f:convertNumber type="currency" />
</h:inputText>
</f:facet>
<f:facet name="input">
<h:inputText value="#{actual.money}">
</h:inputText>
</f:facet>
</p:cellEditor>
</p:column>
The value on the backing bean its the same for input and output, the difference between each other should be the 'currency' format.
UPDATE
As a workaround I used "p:commandButton" to update the Datatable.
<p:commandButton icon="ui-icon-refresh" update="newDataTable" value="Update" />
The app is running on:
- Primefaces 3.5
- Primefaces Extensions 0.7.1
- Mojarra 2.1.22
- Tomcat 7
Thanks for your help.
Kind regards.
Best Answer
Values in output and input should be the same. Try to fix that.
