JSF checkbox value not sent to bean - jsf

While the view can get all values from the bean, when a checkbox (h:selectBooleanCheckbox) is toggled the bean is not updated. The setSelected() method in Item is never called from the view.
I've tried changing the scope of the bean to application, using a map instead of a value for the selected property and a foolish attempt at writing my own ajax javascript function.
The application I'm working with is a bit legacy so I'm using Tomcat 6, JSF 1.2 and Richfaces 3.3.3.Final.
It seems like it should be simple, I think I'm missing something obvious, but I've been at this for two days and can't figure out why the bean isn't updated.
My view is:

I have a managed bean ItemBean in session scope:
import org.richfaces.model.ExtendedTableDataModel;
public class ItemBean extends ExtendedTableDataModel<Item>{
public ItemBean() {super(new ItemProvider());}
}
ItemProvider is:
import org.richfaces.model.DataProvider;
public class ItemProvider implements DataProvider<Item>{
private List<Item> items = new ArrayList<Item>();
public ItemProvider(){
for(int i = 0; i < 10; i++){
items.add(new Item(i, "Item "+i));
}
}
public Item getItemByKey(Object key) {return items.get((Integer)key);}
public List<Item> getItemsByRange(int fromIndex, int toIndex) {
return new ArrayList<Item>(items.subList(fromIndex, toIndex));
}
public Object getKey(Item arg0) {return arg0.getId();}
public int getRowCount() {return items.size();}
}
and Items are:
public class Item {
private final int id;
private final String name;
private boolean selected;
public Item(int id, String name) {
this.id = id;
this.name = name;
selected = false;
}
public int getId(){
return id;
}
public String getName(){
return name;
}
public boolean isSelected(){
return selected;
}
public void setSelected(boolean selected){
this.selected = selected;
}
}

I would assume, that your vanilla html, head and body tags might cause this.
Ajax-stuff (javascript) sometimes has to go into the <head> section of the page (along with required script references). Because JSF is working with components, it needs to insert the javascript required for a certain component at the time the component is added to the underlaying Object-Model.
Therefore JSF itself needs to manage the html, head and body tags.
So, instead of creating them as vanilla-html, use the proper<h:html>, <h:body> and <h:head> tags, which will handover this task to JSF. This way, the required javascript code for your onclick-event handler should be generated and the checkbox should work as expected.

The issue was that I hadn't set up my web.xml properly.
I was missing the following which routes the request to richfaces:
<filter>
<display-name>RichFaces Filter</display-name>
<filter-name>richfaces</filter-name>
<filter-class>org.ajax4jsf.Filter</filter-class>
</filter>
<filter-mapping>
<filter-name>richfaces</filter-name>
<servlet-name>Faces Servlet</servlet-name>

Apache MyFaces 2.3-next-M6 | change of language don't work | it shows not the selected language

How can I fix the following error? The start language is German. If I select english it stays with the german text. However, if I then select German, I get English and if I then select English, I get German language. However, when the English text appears instead of the German text, "de" is displayed correctly next to language (Language de:) in the index.xhtml. To show which language is selected I use #{language.localeCode} in the index.xhtml. I use Apache MyFaces 2.3-next-M6 with Quarkus. What am I doing wrong?

}
}
}
}
This code works fine for me in Mojarra 2.3.17.
In Myfaces 2.3.9, however, I could reproduce the described issue.
The root cause is that the <f:loadBundle> is not (re)initialized during view render time but during view build time only. This might be a bug in MyFaces.
I could work around the issue by replacing the <f:loadBundle> tag by this entry in faces-config.xml.
<application>
...
<resource-bundle>
<base-name>messages</base-name>
<var>msg</var>
</resource-bundle>
</application>
It's at least not a Quarkus related problem. So I've fixed your question.

Update jsf growl message from load method of LazyDataModel

I need to display a message when LazyDataModel load method loads the data. I am using primefaces growl to display the message and updating it from load method using the below code, but It is not working (not seeing any message on UI). Please suggest what I am doing wrong, It seems something related to the asynchronous behaviour of load method but I am not sure how to fix it.

The issue why your message doesn't show up is because of the phase when Load is called. Explanation and workaround below.
The load method is invoked in RENDER_RESPONSE phase, which is inconvenient because error messages could occur here and they would not typically be rendered because p:messages are in most cases rendered as one of first components.

My problem is the Ajax-render attribute which doesn't get the correct id (examples for the first row):
innerTableContainer leads to mojarra.ab(this,event,'action',0,'innerTableContainer') It doesn't work!
innerTable leads to mojarra.ab(this,event,'action',0,'form:outerTable:0:innerTable:0') It doesn't work!
#parent leads to mojarra.ab(this,event,'action',0,'form:outerTable:0:innerTable:0:j_idt14') It doesn't work!
#namingcontainer leads to mojarra.ab(this,event,'action',0,'form:outerTable:0:innerTable:0') It doesn't work!
#form works but this isn't I was looking for.
The correct and working id would be form:outerTable:0:innerTableContainer but how to get it?

In cases like this, you should pass a parameter through query string, then receive it in your view and process it to load the desired data. In this case, your code would be like this (note: make sure you send the parameter with name "urunId"):

DataTable expects a list to iterate through, but as far as I can see you return an UrunIcerik object.

}
}

}
Add proper rowKey attribute to datatable. Primefaces must have a way to uniquely identify you row. That's why you should set a property which is unique to you dataset. Usually this is database primary key. In your case for example it coul be rowKey=#{data.number}.
