Dear Programmers
is it possible to hold value on request scope permanently?
For exmple, I have a bean called Person on the request scope.
After submiting the jsp which is connected to that bean I lose it (the bean). Next time that I'll use this JSP this bean will be created again. How can I solve it?
The tag <t:saveState> of MyFaces doesn't help me in this case.
I don't think that 2 browsers can use the same session because they use different session-id's. (Perhaps if you have two different windows in the same browers they could use the same session).
You can always serialize your information and send to the browser in a hidden field, when the user submit a new request you can than deserialize the hidden field.
I am in the same situation. I want to be able to have to windows open in the same session editting different things. The only way I could see how to do this was to have every page have a hidden field with a unique ID. Then you could grab this ID at the beginning of the submission, possibly in a custom view handler and set something so all subsequent calls during the processing of your request could operate on the correct objects.
I haven't been able to get it to quite work...in the view handler when I try and pick the field off the request object manually, I can't seem to find it...although the field was on the page as a hidden field in the form that was submitted. Not sure why, so I left it to revisit later. Let me know if you figure something out.
Hi
In order to solve the problem I acted like you suggested. it worked fine form just after I have defined tag that creates input like this:
<input id="_id56" type="hidden" action="submit" name="key" value="val" />
It seams that the tag <h:inputHidden> doesn't have the attribute action="submit" and that is why you didn't find it in the rrequest.
