recreateComponentTree

void recreateComponentTree()

Delete the whole component tree. This causes the tree to be rebuilt the next time it is accessed. This addresses the problem that immediate actions cannot change the values of input components. To clear these values, use this method.

recreateComponentTree

void recreateComponentTree(javax.faces.context.FacesContext facesContext)

Delete the whole component tree. This causes the tree to be rebuilt the next time it is accessed. This addresses the problem that immediate actions cannot change the values of input components. To clear these values, use this method.

registerPhaseListener

void registerPhaseListener(javax.faces.event.PhaseListener phaseListener)

Register a PhaseListener programatically (instead of in the faces-config.xml). Such a PhaseListener can therefore be controlled by spring and use dependency injection, which is not possible otherwise.

removeChildrenFromComponentTree

void removeChildrenFromComponentTree(String clientId)

clear component tree since input fields will not be refreshed. See ClearInputComponents for more information.

Parameters:

clientId - all children of the component with this id are cleared.

removeChildrenFromComponentTree

void removeChildrenFromComponentTree(javax.faces.context.FacesContext facesContext,
                                   String clientId)

clear component tree since input fields will not be refreshed. See ClearInputComponents for more information.

Parameters:

clientId - all children of the component with this id are cleared.

removeMessages

void removeMessages(String clientId)

Removes all FacesMessage instances from this FacesContext that are associated with the specified clientId.

removeMessagesForImmediateComponents

void removeMessagesForImmediateComponents()

Removes all FacesMessage instances from this FacesContext that are associated with components whose immediate attribute is true.The typical use case for this method is when seemingly bogus messages are added to the FacesContext on components whose immediate attribute is true. This happens because UIInput.processDecodes(javax.faces.context.FacesContext) calls validate() if the the immediate attribute is true.

void removeMessagesForImmediateComponents(javax.faces.context.FacesContext facesContext)

Removes all FacesMessage instances from this FacesContext that are associated with components whose immediate attribute is true.The typical use case for this method is when seemingly bogus messages are added to the FacesContext on components whose immediate attribute is true. This happens because UIInput.processDecodes(javax.faces.context.FacesContext) calls validate() if the the immediate attribute is true.

removeMessagesForImmediateComponents

void removeMessagesForImmediateComponents(javax.faces.component.UIComponent uiComponent)

Removes all FacesMessage instances from this FacesContext that are associated with components whose immediate attribute is true.The typical use case for this method is when seemingly bogus messages are added to the FacesContext on components whose immediate attribute is true. This happens because UIInput.processDecodes(javax.faces.context.FacesContext) calls validate() if the the immediate attribute is true.

removeMessagesForImmediateComponents

void removeMessagesForImmediateComponents(javax.faces.context.FacesContext facesContext,
                                        javax.faces.component.UIComponent uiComponent)

Removes all FacesMessage instances from this FacesContext that are associated with components whose immediate attribute is true.The typical use case for this method is when seemingly bogus messages are added to the FacesContext on components whose immediate attribute is true. This happens because UIInput.processDecodes(javax.faces.context.FacesContext) calls validate() if the the immediate attribute is true.

removeParentFormFromComponentTree

void removeParentFormFromComponentTree(javax.faces.component.UIComponent uiComponent)

Delete the component subtree of a given component. This causes the subtree to be rebuilt the next time it is accessed. This addresses the problem that immediate actions cannot change the values of input components. To clear these values, use this method.

resetView

void resetView()

Causes the current view's component tree to be discarded and re-rendered.

See Also:

#resetView(boolean)}.

resetView

void resetView(javax.faces.context.FacesContext facesContext)

Causes the current view's component tree to be discarded and re-rendered.

See Also:

#resetView(boolean)}.

resetView

void resetView(boolean renderResponse)

Causes the current view's component tree to be discarded and (optionally) re-rendered. This is useful whenever an action causes navigation back to the current view, but the data in the backing bean(s) has changed substantially. The view is rendered as if the user is visiting for the first time.

Parameters:

renderResponse - causes the response to be rendered immediately if true.
