I am pretty new to JSF and trying to convert an application I previously
developed with Struts.
I'm trying to figure out how to make JSF navigate (using the faces-config
file) from one action method to another, without a JSP in between. Like
the following:
JSP-A --> action-method-1 --> action-method-2 --> JSP-B, with faces-config
defining the navigation between the two methods. Basically, I need
action-method-2 to retrieve the dynamic data to be displayed on JSP-B.
However, I don't want to imbed that logic into action-method-1, as I might
also want to come to JSP-B from somewhere other than JSP-A and I'll need
the dynamic data similarly retrieved and loaded into beans, ready for the
JSP. (Also, it just doesn't seem kosher to do work not directly related to
JSP-A in action-method-1...)
This seems like it would be a pretty common design pattern, but I can't
find anything in my JSF book or on the Web that discusses it.
Any ideas?
Thanks!
