Hi All, I'm trying to create a stateless ajaxformloop using 5.4 and
hibernate, however I appear to be running into a few problems. Code sample
below
@Entity
@Indexed
@Table(name = "employee_profile", uniqueConstraints =
@UniqueConstraint(columnNames = {"empId", "userProfileId"}))
public class EmployeeProfile extends AbstractProfileEntity {
//Other non related properties exist but have been removed for this
example.
@OneToMany(
mappedBy = "employeeProfile",
cascade = CascadeType.ALL,
orphanRemoval = true)
private List<ProfileEffortAllocation> effortAllocations;
public List<ProfileEffortAllocation> getEffortAllocations() {
if (effortAllocations == null) {
effortAllocations = new ArrayList<>();
}
return effortAllocations;
}
public void setEffortAllocations(List<ProfileEffortAllocation>
effortAllocations) {
this.effortAllocations = effortAllocations;
}
}
@Entity
public class ProfileEffortAllocation extends AbstractEffortAllocation {
@ManyToOne
@JoinColumn(
name = "employee_profile_id",
nullable = false)
private EmployeeProfile employeeProfile;
/**
*
*/
public ProfileEffortAllocation() {
}
/**
*
* @param employeeProfile
*/
public ProfileEffortAllocation(EmployeeProfile employeeProfile) {
this.employeeProfile = employeeProfile;
}
/**
*
* @return
*/
public EmployeeProfile getEmployeeProfile() {
return employeeProfile;
}
/**
*
* @param employeeProfile
*/
public void setEmployeeProfile(EmployeeProfile employeeProfile) {
this.employeeProfile = employeeProfile;
}
}
<div t:type="AjaxFormLoop" t:source="employeeProfile.effortAllocations"
t:value="effortAllocation" t:encoder="encoderEffortAllocation" class="row
even" addRow="block:addRowActivityCodes">
<div class="col-xs-6"><div><t:textfield
t:id="activityCode" value="effortAllocation.activityCode"
t:validate="required, maxLength=10"/></div></div>
<div class="col-xs-3"><div><t:textfield
t:id="percentOfEffort" value="effortAllocation.percentOfEffort"
t:validate="required,min=0"/></div></div>
<t:removerowlink
class="col-xs-3">remove</t:removerowlink>
</div>
@PageActivationContext
private EmployeeProfile employeeProfile;
public void onPrepare() {
if(employeeProfile == null) {
employeeProfile = new EmployeeProfile();
}
}
public void onSuccess() {
System.out.println("onsuccss");
alertManager.alert(Duration.TRANSIENT, Severity.INFO, "Employee
profile updated.");
genericDAO.saveOrUpdate(employeeProfile);
}
ProfileEffortAllocation onAddRow() {
return new ProfileEffortAllocation(employeeProfile);
}
void onRemoveRow(ProfileEffortAllocation effortAllocation) {
if(effortAllocation.getId() != null) {
employeeProfile.getEffortAllocations().remove(effortAllocation);
}
}
public ValueEncoder<ProfileEffortAllocation> getEncoderEffortAllocation() {
return new ValueEncoder<ProfileEffortAllocation>() {
@Override
public String toClient(ProfileEffortAllocation v) {
return v.getId() != null ? v.getId().toString() : null;
}
@Override
public ProfileEffortAllocation toValue(String toValue) {
System.out.println(toValue);
if (toValue != null) {
for (ProfileEffortAllocation effortAllocation :
employeeProfile.getEffortAllocations()) {
if (effortAllocation.getId() != null) {
Long id = Long.parseLong(toValue);
if (id.equals(effortAllocation.getId())) {
return effortAllocation;
}
}
}
}
ProfileEffortAllocation effortAllocation = new
ProfileEffortAllocation(employeeProfile);
employeeProfile.getEffortAllocations().add(effortAllocation);
return effortAllocation;
}
};
}
Issues,
1. I can't return null in my encoder toValue without getting the following
exception
Unable to convert client value '2222' back into a server-side object.
2. a. When I add a new row with AjaxFormLoop
b. return new ProfileEffortAllocation object in toValue
c. have a null value within a required field in the tml
d. A validation error is triggered
toClient is now returning an id rather than null. I'm not sure why this
is happening. Every save with a validation error increments the id.
3. I can't remove existing ProfileEffortAllocations without creating a list
of ProfileEffortAllocations and storing the removed objects in the session
until save.
Does anybody know of a better way to handle this without the use of a
session?
