how to populate values from one page to another

[alisha chenna]

Hi,

I am new to jsf. I need to populate the values from my first jsf page into the other page when i click the next button. I have tried a couple of things but no luck. Can anybody help me with this.

Thanks.

have you tried putting it in the session?
Object myObject = ?(whatever it actually equals)
FacesContext context = FacesContext.getCurrentInstance();
Map sessionMap = context.getExternalContext().getSessionMap();
sessionMap.put("nameOfMySessionVariable", myObject);


AND then in the the bean where you want to get it:

FacesContext context = FacesContext.getCurrentInstance();
Map sessionMap = context.getExternalContext().getSessionMap();
Object myObject = (Object)sessionMap.get("nameOfMySessionVariable");

Just create a backing bean in session scope.

Edit in your config.xml

   
 <managed-bean>
    <managed-bean-name>BeanName/managed-bean-name>
    <managed-bean-class>BeanClass</managed-bean-class>
    <managed-bean-scope>session</managed-bean-scope>
  </managed-bean>
