I am learning JSF, I made a simple example of a CRUD with JSF, I am using the following:
- Apache Netbeans 12.0.
- JDK 13.0.2.
- JSF 2.3.
- Apache-tomcat-9.0.37.
And the code is the following:
- Bean.java
import java.io.Serializable;
import java.util.ArrayList;
import java.util.List;
import javax.annotation.PostConstruct;
import javax.faces.bean.ManagedBean;
import javax.faces.bean.ViewScoped;
@ManagedBean
@ViewScoped
public class Bean implements Serializable {
private List<Item> list;
private Item item = new Item();
private boolean edit;
@PostConstruct
public void init() {
// list = dao.list();
// Actually, you should retrieve the list from DAO. This is just for demo.
list = new ArrayList<Item>();
list.add(new Item(1L, "item1"));
list.add(new Item(2L, "item2"));
list.add(new Item(3L, "item3"));
}
public void add() {
// dao.create(item);
// Actually, the DAO should already have set the ID from DB. This is just for demo.
item.setId(list.isEmpty() ? 1 : list.get(list.size() - 1).getId() + 1);
list.add(item);
item = new Item(); // Reset placeholder.
}
public void edit(Item item) {
this.item = item;
edit = true;
}
public void save() {
// dao.update(item);
item = new Item(); // Reset placeholder.
edit = false;
}
public void delete(Item item) {
// dao.delete(item);
list.remove(item);
}
public List<Item> getList() {
return list;
}
public Item getItem() {
return item;
}
public boolean isEdit() {
return edit;
}
// Other getters/setters are actually unnecessary. Feel free to add them though.
}
- Item.java
public class Item {
private long id;
private String value;
public Item(long id, String value) {
this.id = id;
this.value = value;
}
public Item() {
}
public long getId() {
return id;
}
public void setId(long id) {
this.id = id;
}
public String getValue() {
return value;
}
public void setValue(String value) {
this.value = value;
}
}

</h:panelGroup>

<p><h:commandButton value="save" action="#{bean.save}" /></p>
</h:form>
</h:panelGroup>
</h:body>

And when I run the code I get the following error:

Before this example I have created another example of a registration form and everything went fine.
