How to optimize HashMap JAXB output as JSF syntax - jaxb

Having this JAXB Moxy definition, i want to optimize the HashMap output
#XmlRootElement
public class ViewElement {
private Map<StlType, ElementStyle> styles;
#XmlElementWrapper <---- must be removed thanks to #lexicore
#XmlVariableNode("type")
public Map<StlType, ElementStyle> getStyles() {
return styles;
}
private List<ViewElement> elements;
#XmlElementWrapper <---- must be removed thanks to #lexicore
#XmlElementRefs({
.....
})
public List<ViewElement> getElements(){
return elements;
}
}
My current output is :
<tab>
<styles>
<html width="100px" />
<print width="100px" />
</styles>
<elements>
<field id="code"/>
<field id="code2"/>
<listing>
....
</listing>
</elements>
</tab>
Could i have this optimized output? (even without the "e:" and "s:")
<e:tab>
<s:html width="100px" />
<s:print width="100px" />
<e:field id="code"/>
<e:field id="code2"/>
<e:listing>
....
</e:listing>
</e:tab>
OK now i have
#XmlJavaTypeAdapter(value=EventAdapter.class)
public Map<Event, String> getEvents() {
return events;
}
with
public class EventAdapter extends XmlAdapter<EventAdapter.AdaptedMap, Map<Event, String>> {
public static class AdaptedMap {
#XmlVariableNode("key")
List<AdaptedEntry> entries = new ArrayList<AdaptedEntry>();
}
public static class AdaptedEntry {
#XmlTransient
public String key;
#XmlValue
public String value;
}
#Override
public AdaptedMap marshal(Map<Event, String> map) throws Exception {
if (map==null||map.size()==0)
return null;
AdaptedMap adaptedMap = new AdaptedMap();
for(Entry<Event, String> entry : map.entrySet()) {
AdaptedEntry adaptedEntry = new AdaptedEntry();
adaptedEntry.key = entry.getKey().toString();
adaptedEntry.value = entry.getValue();
adaptedMap.entries.add(adaptedEntry);
}
return adaptedMap;
}
#Override
public Map<Event, String> unmarshal(AdaptedMap adaptedMap) throws Exception {
if (adaptedMap==null)
return null;
List<AdaptedEntry> adaptedEntries = adaptedMap.entries;
Map<Event, String> map = new HashMap<Event, String>(adaptedEntries.size());
for(AdaptedEntry adaptedEntry : adaptedEntries) {
map.put( Event.valueOf(adaptedEntry.key), adaptedEntry.value );
}
return map;
}
}
the output is also
<tab>
<html/>
<print/>
<events>
<onCellEnter>aa</onCellEnter>
</events>
</tab>
how to remove the events tag?

#XmlPath(".") remove "events" map wrapper
#XmlPath(".")
#XmlJavaTypeAdapter(value=EventAdapter.class)
public Map<Event, String> getEvents() {
return events;
}

How to bean-validate a collection property in a jsf composite component, constraints do not fire

How do I define a jsf composite component properly such that its value gets bean-validated correctly in the case it contains a collection?
We have an entity that references a collection of details. Both are annotated with bean-validation-constraints. Please note the annotations at the details-property.
public class Entity implements Serializable {
#NotEmpty
private String name;
#NotEmpty
#UniqueCategory(message="category must be unique")
private List<#Valid Detail> details;
/* getters/setters */
}
public class Detail implements Serializable {
#Pattern(regexp="^[A-Z]+$")
private String text;
#NotNull
private Category category;
/* getters/setters */
}
public class Category implements Serializable {
private final int id;
private final String description;
Category(int id, String description) {
this.id = id;
this.description = description;
}
/* getters/setters */
}
public class MyConstraints {
#Target({ ElementType.TYPE, ElementType.FIELD })
#Retention(RetentionPolicy.RUNTIME)
#Constraint(validatedBy = UniqueCategoryValidator.class)
#Documented
public static #interface UniqueCategory {
String message();
Class<?>[] groups() default {};
Class<? extends Payload>[] payload() default {};
}
public static class UniqueCategoryValidator implements ConstraintValidator<UniqueCategory, Collection<Detail>> {
#Override
public boolean isValid(Collection<Detail> collection, ConstraintValidatorContext context) {
if ( collection==null || collection.isEmpty() ) {
return true;
}
Set<Category> set = new HashSet<>();
collection.forEach( d-> set.add( d.getCategory() ));
return set.size() == collection.size();
}
public void initialize(UniqueCategory constraintAnnotation) {
// intentionally empty
}
}
private MyConstraints() {
// only static stuff
}
}
The entity can be edited in a jsf-form, where all the tasks concerning the details are encapsulated in a composite component, eg
<h:form id="entityForm">
<h:panelGrid columns="3">
<p:outputLabel for="#next" value="name"/>
<p:inputText id="name" value="#{entityUiController.entity.name}"/>
<p:message for="name"/>
<p:outputLabel for="#next" value="details"/>
<my:detailsComponent id="details" details="#{entityUiController.entity.details}"
addAction="#{entityUiController.addAction}"/>
<p:message for="details"/>
<f:facet name="footer">
<p:commandButton id="saveBtn" value="save"
action="#{entityUiController.saveAction}"
update="#form"/>
</f:facet>
</h:panelGrid>
</h:form>
where my:detailsComponent is defined as
<ui:component xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml"
xmlns:h="http://java.sun.com/jsf/html"
xmlns:f="http://java.sun.com/jsf/core"
xmlns:ui="http://java.sun.com/jsf/facelets"
xmlns:cc="http://java.sun.com/jsf/composite"
xmlns:p="http://primefaces.org/ui"
>
<cc:interface>
<cc:attribute name="details" required="true" type="java.lang.Iterable"/>
<cc:attribute name="addAction" required="true" method-signature="void action()"/>
</cc:interface>
<cc:implementation>
<p:outputPanel id="detailsPanel">
<ui:repeat id="detailsContainer" var="detail" value="#{cc.attrs.details}">
<p:inputText id="text" value="#{detail.text}" />
<p:message for="text"/>
<p:selectOneMenu id="category" value="#{detail.category}"
converter="#{entityUiController.categoriesConverter}"
placeholder="please select" >
<f:selectItem noSelectionOption="true" />
<f:selectItems value="#{entityUiController.categoryItems}"/>
</p:selectOneMenu>
<p:message for="category"/>
</ui:repeat>
</p:outputPanel>
<p:commandButton id="addDetailBtn" value="add" action="#{cc.attrs.addAction}"
update="detailsPanel" partialSubmit="true" process="#this detailsPanel"/>
</cc:implementation>
</ui:component>
and the EntityUiController is
#Named
#ViewScoped
public class EntityUiController implements Serializable {
private static final Logger LOG = Logger.getLogger( EntityUiController.class.getName() );
#Inject
private CategoriesBoundary categoriesBoundary;
#Valid
private Entity entity;
#PostConstruct
public void init() {
this.entity = new Entity();
}
public Entity getEntity() {
return entity;
}
public void saveAction() {
LOG.log(Level.INFO, "saved entity: {0}", this.entity );
}
public void addAction() {
this.entity.getDetails().add( new Detail() );
}
public List<SelectItem> getCategoryItems() {
return categoriesBoundary.getCategories().stream()
.map( cat -> new SelectItem( cat, cat.getDescription() ) )
.collect( Collectors.toList() );
}
public Converter<Category> getCategoriesConverter() {
return new Converter<Category>() {
#Override
public String getAsString(FacesContext context, UIComponent component, Category value) {
return value==null ? null : Integer.toString( value.getId() );
}
#Override
public Category getAsObject(FacesContext context, UIComponent component, String value) {
if ( value==null || value.isEmpty() ) {
return null;
}
try {
return categoriesBoundary.findById( Integer.valueOf(value).intValue() );
} catch (NumberFormatException e) {
throw new ConverterException(e);
}
}
};
}
}
When we now press the save-button in the above h:form, the name-inputText is validated correctly but the #NotEmpty- and #UniqueCategory-constraint on the details-property are ignored.
What am I missing?
We are on java-ee-7, payara 4.
After diving into this a bit we endet up with a solution using a backing component ValidateListComponent. It was inspired by UIValidateWholeBean and WholeBeanValidator.
That component extends from UIInput and overrides the validation-Methods to operate on a clone of the above details-collection which gets populated with the already validated values of the children-UIInput. Seems to work for now.
<ui:component ...>
<cc:interface componentType="validatedListComponent">
<cc:attribute name="addAction" required="true" method-signature="void action()"/>
</cc:interface>
<cc:implementation>
... see above ...

Adding validators to UIInputs outside of <h:inputText> tag

Is it possible to add validators to inputText fields from outside the h:inputText tag?
<!-- instead of this -->
<h:inputText id="field1" value="#{backingBean.field1}">
<f:validator validatorId="CustomValidator" />
</h:inputText>
<!-- something like this -->
<h:inputText id="field1" value="#{backingBean.field1}" />
<abc:validations>
<abc:validation for="field1" validator="CustomValidatorName" />
</abc:validations>
The abc:validation is a really short custom component
<cc:interface componentType="validation">
<cc:attribute name="for" />
<cc:attribute name="validator" />
</cc:interface>
<cc:implementation>
</cc:implementation>
</ui:composition>
and a faces component class
package at.sozvers.ecm.webclient.frontend.component;
import java.io.Serializable;
import javax.faces.component.FacesComponent;
import javax.faces.component.NamingContainer;
import javax.faces.component.UIComponentBase;
import javax.faces.component.UINamingContainer;
import javax.faces.validator.Validator;
#FacesComponent("validation")
public class Validation extends UIComponentBase implements NamingContainer, Serializable {
private static final long serialVersionUID = 1L;
private String for1;
private Validator validator;
#Override
public String getFamily() {
return UINamingContainer.COMPONENT_FAMILY;
}
public String getFor() {
return for1;
}
public void setFor(String for1) {
this.for1 = for1;
}
public Validator getValidator() {
return validator;
}
public void setValidator(Validator validator) {
this.validator = validator;
}
}
I read about TagHandlers and ComponentHandlers but I have no idea how to start.
I found a solution
I created a class extending ComponentHandlerWrapper and override the onComponentPopulated method where I read the ViewMap and put a ValidatorSet for each inputText id that has to be validated. The ValidatorSet contains a Set where I write the FacesValidator names into.
public class ParentAddingComponentHandlerWrapper extends ComponentHandlerWrapper {
#Override
public void onComponentPopulated(FaceletContext ctx, UIComponent c, UIComponent parent) {
super.onComponentPopulated(ctx, c, parent);
Map<String, Object> viewMap = ctx.getFacesContext().getViewRoot().getViewMap();
if (c instanceof Validation) { // Validation is the FacesComponent class for <abc:validation>
TagAttribute uiInputName = getAttribute("for");
if (null == viewMap.get(uiInputName.getValue())) {
viewMap.put(uiInputName.getValue(), new ValidatorSet());
}
TagAttribute validator = getAttribute("validator"); // the validator attribute contains a FacesValidator name
ValidatorSet validators = (ValidatorSet) viewMap.get(uiInputName.getValue());
if (validator != null) {
validators.addValidator(validator.getValue());
}
}
}
Than I created a CustomComponent where I'm "decorating" a inputText. I also created a componentType/FacesComponent named field which I annotated with #ListenerFor(systemEventClass = PreValidateEvent.class)
Than I had to override the processEvent method where I added the FacesValidator to the UIInput component
#Override
public void processEvent(ComponentSystemEvent event) throws AbortProcessingException {
super.processEvent(event);
Map<String, Object> viewMap = FacesContext.getCurrentInstance().getViewRoot().getViewMap();
String id = getAttributeValue("id", "");
ValidatorSet validators = (ValidatorSet) viewMap.get(id);
if (validators != null) {
UIComponent findComponent = findComponent(id);
if (findComponent instanceof UIInput) {
UIInput input = (UIInput) findComponent;
List<Validator> inputValidators = Arrays.asList(input.getValidators());
for (Validator validator : validators.getValidators()) {
if (!doesUIInputContainsValidator(inputValidators, validator)) {
input.addValidator(validator);
}
}
}
}
}
private boolean doesUIInputContainsValidator(List<Validator> inputValidators, Validator validator) {
for (Validator inputValidator : inputValidators) {
if (inputValidator.getClass().isInstance(validator)) {
return true;
}
}
return false;
}

Storing a http session attribute in database

How can I pass an injected http session attribute (see below), along with other values (informe by the user) and save them using JPA?
The session attribute is correctly displayed and injected, but I need to pass it using the selected to be stored in the database (actually, it passess null).
The JSF:
<p:outputLabel value="UserID (the sessionAttribute):" for="userID" />
<p:inputText id="userID" value="#{userBean.myUser.xChave}" title="userID" />
<p:outputLabel value="Type the Reason:" for="reason" />
<p:inputText id="reason" value="#{viagensController.selected.reason}" />
<!-- updated (just the call to the action method: -->
<p:commandButton actionListener="#{viagensController.saveNew}" value="#{viagensBundle.Save}" update="display,:ViagensListForm:datalist,:growl" oncomplete="handleSubmit(xhr,status,args,ViagensCreateDialog);" />
The bean:
import java.io.Serializable;
import javax.annotation.PostConstruct;
import javax.enterprise.context.SessionScoped;
import javax.faces.context.FacesContext;
import javax.inject.Named;
#Named(value = "userBean")

}
#PostConstruct
public void init() {
String uid = FacesContext.getCurrentInstance().getExternalContext().getSessionMap().get("xChave").toString();

Primefaces p:orderList java backing list does not update

I am currently implementing a orderable list using PrimeFaces' component, embedded inside a . I was able to get the list to appear properly with my items. However, when I saved the list and submitted it back to the server, the rearranged items did not get reflected in the backing bean for some reason. Since the Primefaces showcase was able to see the changes, what am I doing wrong?
XHTML Snippet:

This problem is caused by appendToBody="true" in the confirm dialog. Setting it to false solved the problem.

Icefaces tree + outputResource

I implemented a tree with an outputResource as "content" (see Downloading file from IceFaces tree).
However, when I try to download a file (I have only txt or csv files) I get the HTTP 500 Status error.
The tree structure is something like
Root
|-infoFiles
| |-A.csv
| |-B.csv
|-validateFiles
| |-C.txt
| |-D.txt
And the exception once I click on the resource is
java.io.FileNotFoundException: C:\SRC\dataFiles\998\validateFiles (Access denied)
java.io.FileInputStream.open(Native Method)
java.io.FileInputStream.<init>(FileInputStream.java:138)

UPDATE
What I noticed was that when I get the 500 Status Error the FileNotFoundException is always pointing to the same path java.io.FileNotFoundException: C:\SRC\dataFiles\998\validateFiles (Access denied)
I'm starting to think that all my FileResources are pointing to the same path... why is this happening?
There was a report of a bug on the IceFaces page where it says that using multiple outputResource tags had a strange behavior. See this link http://jira.icefaces.org/browse/ICE-3667
I think this was happening with I had the tree and many outputResource tags.
Moreover, I also read that using the outputResource tag it creates an Object at render time (or something like that I'm very new to JSF and all the stuff related) and it was memory-cpu consuming and it was better to use a servlet to perform the download. See http://www.dantoomeysoftware.com/pencils-down/2009/09/08/dont-use-icefaces-resource-for-download-use-a-download-servlet/
So it's better to implement a servlet, you can find useful info in http://balusc.blogspot.com/2007/07/fileservlet.html and (if your are new to all this stuff) Custom download servlet
