I'm working on WebSphere Portal 8.0 and I am trying to make portlet with few faces. Can anyone share with me how can I make a simple link to other JSF site within one portlet? I mean, I was trying to use this, but it doesn't work:
<h:outputLink value="page2.xhtml">
<h:outputText value="take me to the page2" />
</h:outputLink>
I'm redirected to the misterious link but I would like to stay on the same site but change face in this single portlet.
I have got answer.
If you want use GET, use this:
<h:link value="take me to the page2" outcome="page2" />
Or by POST use:
<h:form>
<h:commandLink action="#{menager.navigateToPage2}" value="take me to the page2" />
</h:form>
and in faces-config.xml
<managed-bean>
<managed-bean-name>menadzer</managed-bean-name>
<managed-bean-class>test.Menadzer</managed-bean-class>
<managed-bean-scope>request</managed-bean-scope>
<managed-property>
<property-name>symbolAktywnejSpolki</property-name>
<value>#{param.symbol}</value>
</managed-property>
</managed-bean>
<navigation-rule>
<display-name>index.xhtml</display-name>
<from-view-id>index.xhtml</from-view-id>
<navigation-case>
<from-action>#{menager.navigateToPage2}</from-action>
<from-outcome>page2</from-outcome>
<to-view-id>page2.xhtml</to-view-id>
</navigation-case>
</navigation-rule>
and the class:
public class Menager {
...
public String navigateToPage2() {
return "page2";
}
}
and if you use WebSphere Portal add this, to the faces-config.xml:
<application>
<view-handler>com.ibm.faces20.portlet.FaceletPortletViewHandler</view-handler>
<resource-handler>com.ibm.faces20.portlet.httpbridge.PortletResourceHandler</resource-handler>
<el-resolver>com.ibm.faces20.portlet.PortletELResolver</el-resolver>
</application>
