JSF 2: page redirect after ajax call

Question

I\'m stuck in a navigation case problem similar to this one. In a few words, I\'m trying to redirect navigation from one page to another, using an ajax rendered h:commandL

Answer 1

The rendered attribute of all input and command components is re-evaluated when the form is submitted. So if it evaluates false, then JSF simply won't invoke the action. The Flash scope is terminated when the request/response of the search() method is finished. It isn't there in the Flash scope anymore when you send the request of the showResult(). I suggest to put the bean in the view scope and bind the rendered attribute to its property instead.

@ManagedBean
@ViewScoped
public class StartBean {

    private String result;

    public void search(){
        result = "hooray";
    }

    public String showResult(){
        return "result?faces-redirect=true";
    }

    public String getResult() {
        return result;
    }

}
