Update managed bean with ajax ignoring the required - jsf-2

I want to update idOutput everytime that I change the value of selectOneMenu, but when it changes once a time to a value different of null I can't asign null another time, I think that is due to the required="true", but I don't know how to avoid the validation only in the ajax request.
Here is the code:
Bean:
#ViewScoped
#ManagedBean
public class ProbeNull implements Serializable
{
private static final long serialVersionUID = 1628174277372407129L;
private Boolean probe;
public ProbeNull()
{
super();
}
public void show()
{
System.err.println("Value : " + probe);
}
public void save()
{
System.err.println("Save : " + probe);
}
public Boolean getProbe()
{
return probe;
}
public void setProbe(Boolean probe)
{
System.err.println("Setter: " + probe);
this.probe = probe;
}
}
xhtml:
<html 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:p="http://primefaces.org/ui">
<h:head />
<h:body>
<h:outputText id="idOutput" value="#{probeNull.probe}" />
<h:form id="form">
<p:selectOneMenu id="select" required="true" value="#{probeNull.probe}">
<f:selectItem itemLabel="Select one" itemValue="#{null}" />
<f:selectItem itemLabel="Yes" itemValue="true" />
<f:selectItem itemLabel="No" itemValue="false" />
<p:ajax update=":idOutput" />
</p:selectOneMenu>
<p:commandButton value="Save" ajax="false" action="#{probeNull.save()}" />
</h:form>
<h:form>
<p:commandButton value="Show value" ajax="false" action="#{probeNull.show()}" />
</h:form>
</h:body>
</html>
How can avoid it?

You can do what you want by using two remoteCommand tags and JavaScript.
<p:remoteCommand name="makeSelection" process="select" update=":idOutput" />
<p:remoteCommand name="clearSelection" process="#this" update="select,:idOutput" >
<f:setPropertyActionListener value="#{null}" target="#{probeNull.probe}" />
</p:remoteCommand>
Now you can decide which one to call using a javascript funcion
<p:selectOneMenu id="select" required="true" value="#{probeNull.probe}" onchange="selectFunction(this)">
...
function selectFunction(el){
//if el.value is empty you call clearSelection();
//else you call makeSelection();
}
Don't forget to delete the <p:ajax update=":idOutput" />

form1 updates every time but still dattable does not update

I have researched about primefaces command button update but all advices did not worked for me. Thank you in advance
It seems to me that the newly created personel it never added to the list. So you must for example say
personels.add(personel);
or
personels=personelService.findAll();
in createPersonel(), or set personels to null and do a lazy load in getPersonels().

Primefaces selectOneMenu update outputLabel and inputText

I've googled and stackoverflowed a lot but I can't seem to find the answer.
What needs to be done is that the outputLabel's value needs to be updated when the selection change, also inputText's disabled needs to change to enabled when you select option B. (Furthermore; the selected value is displayed in the inputText)
My xhtml snipped:
<p:selectOneMenu id="findex" value="#{myController.selected.findex}" >
<p:ajax update="extra1 labelextra1" immediate="true"/>
<f:selectItem itemLabel="Value A" itemValue="A" />
<f:selectItem itemLabel="Value B" itemValue="B" />
</p:selectOneMenu>
<p:outputLabel id="labelextra1" value="#{myController.selected.findex == 'A' ? '' : 'X'}" for="extra1"/>
<p:inputText id="extra1" value="#{myController.selected.findex}" disabled="#{myController.selected.findex == 'A'}"/>
(A listener in my backing bean does get called if I add it to the ajax, but I'm not sure that I require that, it is a simple on change event, isn't it?)
I make a little example. This works fine. I think you have no <h:form> right? You need a form for it.

p:selectOneMenu Reset is not working

I am facing problem in resetting the p:selectOneMenu. In my facelet, I have two p:selectOneMenu items. My requirement is that, if user chooses something from first p:selectOneMenu, then second p:selectOneMenu should reset itself and vice versa.
Below is the code I am using:
<p:outputLabel for="country" value="Country:" />
<p:selectOneMenu id="country" effect="none"
value="#{infoBean.infoDataHolder.selectedCountry}">
<f:selectItem itemLabel="Select One" itemValue=""
noSelectionOption="true" />
<f:selectItems
value="#{infoBean.infoDataHolder.availableCountries}"
var="aCountry" itemLabel="#{aCountry.description}"
itemValue="#{aCountry.description}" />
<p:ajax update="state"
listener="#{infoBean.resetState()}" />
</p:selectOneMenu>
<p:outputLabel for="state" value="State:" />
<p:selectOneMenu id="state" effect="none"
value="#{infoBean.infoDataHolder.selectedState}">
<f:selectItem itemLabel="Select One" itemValue=""
noSelectionOption="true" />
<f:selectItems
value="#{infoBean.infoDataHolder.availableStates}"
var="aState" itemLabel="#{aState}"
itemValue="#{aState}" />
<p:ajax update="country"
listener="#{infoBean.resetCountry()}" />
</p:selectOneMenu>
My backing bean InfoBean is in RequestScope and infoDataHolder is in View Scope.
In infoBean.resetCountry() / infoBean.resetState(), I am making the infoBean.infoDataHolder.selectedCountry / infoBean.infoDataHolder.selectedState as null.
Now what is happening is that when I am choosing State, Country p:selectOneMenu is getting resetted. but choosing country, State p:selectOneMenu is not getting resetted.
Could you please help me here. Thanks.
You may wanted to update parent component of select one menu like
<p:panel id="panel_">
<p:selectOneMenu id="country" ...
<p:ajax update="panel_" listener="#{infoBean.resetState()}" />
</p:selectOneMenu>
<p:selectOneMenu id="state" ...
<p:ajax update="panel_" listener="#{infoBean.resetCountry()}" />
</p:selectOneMenu>
</p:panel>
I can't see the point of your requirement of reseting the country list when selecting an state. The proper behaviour here is, in my opinion, allowing the end user to choose an State inside each country. That's done by loading the related states for each country and rendering the dependent h/p:selectOneMenu.
I don't encourage you to use two different beans for that, just go with #ViewScoped. Also accessing transient JSF managed beans from the view the way you do (#{infoBean.infoDataHolder}) does not make sense in JSF, just access to a bean directly.
Here you've got my workaround:
#ManagedBean
#ViewScoped
public class InfoDataHolder {
private List<String> availableCountries = Arrays.asList("USA",
"Switzerland");
private List<String> availableStates = new ArrayList<String>();
private String selectedCountry;
private String selectedState;
public void countrySelected() {
if ("USA".equals(selectedCountry)) {
availableStates = Arrays.asList("Arizona", "California");
} else if ("Switzerland".equals(selectedCountry)) {
availableStates = Arrays.asList("Zurich", "Bern");
} else {
availableStates = new ArrayList<String>();
}
}
public List<String> getAvailableCountries() {
return availableCountries;
}
public List<String> getAvailableStates() {
return availableStates;
}
public String getSelectedCountry() {
return selectedCountry;
}
public String getSelectedState() {
return selectedState;
}
public void setSelectedCountry(String selectedCountry) {
this.selectedCountry = selectedCountry;
}
public void setSelectedState(String selectedState) {
this.selectedState = selectedState;
}
}

JSF 2 basic #RequestScoped CRUD

i have these simple pages:
list.xhtml
<h:form id="form">
<h:dataTable value="#{testBean.model}" var="elem">
<h:column>
<f:facet name="header">code</f:facet>
#{elem.code}
</h:column>
<h:column>
<f:facet name="header">description</f:facet>
#{elem.description}
</h:column>
<h:column>
<f:facet name="header">action</f:facet>
<h:commandButton action="#{testBean.edit(elem)}" value="edit"/>
</h:column>
</h:dataTable>
</h:form>
edit.xhtml
<h:form id="form">
<h:panelGrid columns="2">
<h:outputLabel value="code"/>
<h:inputText value="#{testBean.selection.code}"/>
<h:outputLabel value="description"/>
<h:inputText value="#{testBean.selection.description}"/>
</h:panelGrid>
<h:commandButton action="#{testBean.update}" value="update"/>
</h:form>
and this bean:
#ManagedBean
public class TestBean implements Serializable
{
private static final long serialVersionUID = 1L;
#EJB
private PersistenceService service;
private Object selection;
private List<UnitType> model;
#PostConstruct
public void init()
{
model = service.findAll(UnitType.class);
}
public String edit(Object object)
{
System.out.println(Tracer.current(object));
setSelection(object);
return "edit";
}
public String update()
{
System.out.println(Tracer.current(selection));
return "list";
}
// getters and setters
}
so the table is rendered, when i click one of the "edit" buttons it navigates to "edit.jsf" showing filled input,
but when i click the "update" buttons it gives me this error:
javax.el.PropertyNotFoundException: /test2/edit.xhtml #27,54 value="#{testBean.selection.code}": Target Unreachable, 'null' returned null
note that i know how to implement a #ViewScoped interface to manage CRUD operations, but this is a simple proof of concept that i need to better understand JSF lifecycle.
so i want "testBean" to be #RequestScoped
UPDATE trying with f:viewParam, still not understanding...

if i press "edit" button it goes to edit page, but selection is null and no message is showed.
if i press "edit2" button it goes to edit page, but selection is null, showing required message and the url is edit.jsf?entity=
what am i doing wrong?
As my understand, when your second request come to testBean, selection Object is null. If you run this with session bean you may not get this error.
The way I see it, there's no clean way to achieve what you want.
I'll suggest you simply pass around an Id attr between requests as a simple request parameter. So in your post constructor, check if the parameter value is set and based on that, perform a look in your persistence layer.
Alternatively, using the setup you already have, bind the:
<h:inputText value="#{testBean.selection.code}"/>
component to your backing bean and call getValue() on it when necessary. Either way, still untidy.
If you find any other way, please let us know.
Finally I found a way: data will be in a long scope, bean in short.
Note that this is just a proof of concept, not a real use case. And be aware, when dealing with #RequestScope beans, of PrimeFaces lazy DataTable model scope

Primefaces ajax row selection fail to update values in dialog

I have a data table that will display a detail dialog on row select event. However, the dialog does not show any values of the selected object. I can see that the selected object is properly set during debug session.
The table consists of rows of students and it is suppose to display a popup dialog showing detailed information on row selection event.
The StudentBean:
#Named(value = "studentBean")
#SessionScoped
public class StudentBean {
#Inject
private UserFacade userFacade;
private List<User> studentList;
private User selectedStudent;
public StudentBean() {
}
#PostConstruct
public void init() {
studentList = userFacade.findAll();
}
public List<User> getStudentList() {
return studentList;
}
public void setStudentList(List<User> studentList) {
this.studentList = studentList;
}
public User getSelectedStudent() {
return selectedStudent;
}
public void setSelectedStudent(User student) {
this.selectedStudent = student;
}
public void onRowSelect(SelectEvent event) {
}
public void onRowUnselect(UnselectEvent event) {
//FacesMessage msg = new FacesMessage("Student Unselected", ((User) event.getObject()).getFirstName());
//FacesContext.getCurrentInstance().addMessage("messages", msg);
}
}

I'm following the Car data table example from the Primefaces Showcase page. It seems so simple there but I can't seem to display the selectedStudent information no matter what I do. The dialog shows up fine but the firstName and lastName values are empty.
I tried the following:
Putting the dialog into another form
Use process="#form"
Use process=":studentForm:studentDetail"
What am I doing wrong?
Primefaces 3.3.1,
Glassfish 3.1.2
I removed global="true" immediate="true", unused listeners
from p:ajax, synchronized rowKey="#{student.id}"
with expression from "Student ID" column and populated
studentList inside #PostConstruct init() function not knowing how yours userFacade code is, and it works.
