I am trying to create a modal to send user-selected requests to an email address; however, I am having trouble getting the user-selected requests. I keep getting the null value passed through fooBean.setSelected(id).

Versions:

• BootsFaces: 1.3.0


• Java: 1.8.0


• JSF: 2.0

MCVE of thisThing.xhtml:

<b:dataTable value="#fooBean.newRequests"
 var="foo"
 onselect="ajax:fooBean.setSelected(id)"
 ondeselect="ajax:fooBean.setSelected(id)"
 selectedItems="row"
 selection-mode="multiple"
 selectedRows="#foo.selected"
 saveState="false">

 <b:dataTableColumn label="Select">
 <b:selectBooleanCheckbox value="#foo.selected" />
 </b:dataTableColumn>

 <b:dataTableColumn label="Status" value="#foo.status" />

 <b:dataTableColumn label="Request Number"
 value="#foo.requestNumber"
 data-type="string" />

 <b:dataTableColumn label="ID" value="#foo.id" />

 <b:dataTableColumn value="#foo.storeName"
 label="Store Name" />
</b:dataTable>

MCVE of fooBean.java:

@ManagedBean(name="fooBean")
@ViewScoped
public class fooBean extends BeanBase implements Serializable 

 private List<FooRecord> fooRecords = new ArrayList<FooRecord>();
 private List<FooRecord> selectedFooRecords = new ArrayList<FooRecord>();

 // ...

 public void setSelected(String requestId) 
 this.fooRecords.stream().filter().toggleSelection();
 this.selectedFooRecords.stream().filter().toggleSelection();
 

Update:

I found out that I had the method called as getSelect instead of getSelected, so I fixed it and that part is done. I just remembered the real issue which is why a null parameter is being passed instead of the requestId. When I debug through the fooBean.getSelected(String requestId), it shows null being passed through as parameter. I have even tried:

<!-- Using varName.property -->
onselect="ajax:fooBean.getSelected(foo.id)"

<!-- Using just the property name -->
onselect="ajax:fooBean.getSelected(foo.id)"

How do I pass foo.id to the function?
