Class ViewScopePhaseListener

java.lang.Object

com.liferay.faces.util.lifecycle.ViewScopePhaseListener

All Implemented Interfaces:

Serializable, EventListener, javax.faces.event.PhaseListener

public class ViewScopePhaseListener
extends Object
implements javax.faces.event.PhaseListener

This class is a JSF PhaseListener that listens to the PhaseId.RESTORE_VIEW phase of the JSF lifecycle. Its purpose is to re-inject ManagedProperty values into ViewScoped managed-bean instances after postback.

When running under Mojarra, ViewScoped managed-beans are essentially stored in the underlying session. When running under MyFaces, ViewScoped managed-beans are serialized after the JSF lifecycle runs, probably so that they don't take up memory on the server. When doing a postback to a ViewScoped managed-bean, Mojarra simply pulls the live instance from the session. But with MyFaces, the managed-bean must be deserialized. The problem with this is that MyFaces does not re-inject @ManagedProperty values after deserialization. This class exists to work-around this problem.
