I have a simple Databean like this:

@Model
Class DataBean{
    private List<Elements> elements;

    @PostConstruct
    private void loadElements(){
        //fetch data from database.
    }
}

im using Primefaces datatable to display the data, like this:

<h:form>
<p:dataTable 
      value="#{dataBean.elements}"
      var="element" >

      <p:column sortBy="#{element.id}"
           sortFunction="#{sortingHelper.sortNumericCallback}">
           <f:facet name="header">ID</f:facet>
           <p:commandLink action="#{pageController.navigateToDetailView(element)}"
                 value="#{element.id}">
           </p:commandLink>
      </p:column>
 </p:datatable>
 </h:form>

pageController.navigateToDetailView(element) simple sets the selected element on the next page's databean, so the detailView has its data prepared, and then returns the detail-Navigation-Outcome.

Now: The Problem: If i click on one of the commandLinks without any sorting, all is fine. If i sort by id and click on the details-link, the following is happening:

  • Request Started
  • Databean loaded (postconstruct) (sorting gone)

Now - in the second request - the page is rebuild again (in order to fire the navigateToDetailView-Action) And the datatable "knows", that i clicked on row 5. But without sorting it again, row 5 is now a different entry, since the bean gets reconstructed.

Console Output for different Points.

First I click on the page showing the Datatable. the "."'s are one comparision of my custom sort function, just to indicate the collection is sorted.

13:47:56,046 INFO  [stdout] (http--0.0.0.0-8090-1) -- Started Request --

That's fine. Now im sorting by clicking the id header

That's fine, too. The Table is now sorted as it should be. Now i'm clicking on the 10th row to pick the item with the id 53;

13:48:28,295 INFO  [stdout] (http--0.0.0.0-8090-4) -- Started Request --

Note, that AFTER PostConstruct DataBean no sorting is done. (I assume since i use a form in the table, the datatable is not aware, that the sorting might have changed.)

As a result, element with id 42 is passed. (Element 42 is in the 10th position for an unsorted case)

As a result, navigateToDetailView(element) is now fired with another elementthan expected...

The Problem is ofc. that the sorted collection gets reset by the postconstruct method. I also know, that it can be solved with Conversation scope.

But I wonder if there isnt a stateless way of doing this? (I don't want to launch conversations for every sorting / page2page navigation)

Any Ideas?

Edit 1: SortingHelper is a own class, just looking like this:

 @Named
 public class SortingHelper {

/**
 * Sorts two integers correctly.
 * @param o1 integer 1
 * @param o2 integer 2
 * @return negative value if o1 is less, 0 if equal, or positive value if greater
 */
public int sortNumericCallback(Object o1, Object o2) {
    System.out.print(".");
    int i1 = Integer.parseInt((String) o1);
    int i2 = Integer.parseInt((String) o2);
    return (i1 == i2) ? 0 : (i1 > i2) ? 1 : -1;
}
 }

(Primefaces Datatable fails on sorting integers, or lets say it sorts numbers lexicographic: 11 < 5 etc.)

But even if i do not mind about the sorting and using NO custom sort function the outcome is the same.

在评论中，我现在修改了 Databean 以在加载后开始对话。

@ConversationScoped
Class DataBean{
    private List<Elements> elements;

    @Inject
    private Conversation conversation;

    @PostConstruct
    private void loadElements(){
        if (this.conversation.isTransient()) 
             this.conversation.begin();

        //fetch data from database.
    }
}

在我的 pageController 的导航功能中，我再次停止了该对话：

public String navigateToDetailView(Element element) {
    //pass element to next databean.
    conversation.end();
    //...
    return "detailView";
}

然而，这导致了问题，即使用浏览器导航会导致无效对话（它们已结束）。

为了解决这个问题，我创建了一个自定义过滤器，它基本上禁用了浏览器的缓存，因此它们刷新页面history.back()并因此具有全新的有效对话 ID。

过滤器如下所示：

public class NoCacheFilter implements Filter {

    @Override
    public void doFilter(ServletRequest req, ServletResponse res, FilterChain chain) throws IOException, ServletException {
        HttpServletResponse hsr = (HttpServletResponse) res;
        hsr.setHeader("Cache-Control", "no-cache, no-store, must-revalidate"); // HTTP 1.1.
        hsr.setHeader("Pragma", "no-cache"); // HTTP 1.0.
        hsr.setDateHeader("Expires", 0); // Proxies.
        chain.doFilter(req, res);
    }

    @Override
    public void destroy() {
        // TODO Auto-generated method stub  
    }

    @Override
    public void init(FilterConfig filterConfig) throws ServletException {
        // TODO Auto-generated method stub
    }
}

在 web.xml 中使用这部分：

<filter>
        <filter-name>noCacheFilter</filter-name>
        <filter-class>com.example.NoCacheFilter</filter-class>
    </filter>

    <filter-mapping>
        <filter-name>noCacheFilter</filter-name>
        <url-pattern>*.xhtml</url-pattern>
    </filter-mapping>

现在我只需要弄清楚，如果用户选择不从侧面导航，而不是调用 showDetail()-Action，如何结束对话。
