ReRendering of ComponentBindings fails

[Eivind Ronnevik]

Hi!



I have tried to post this question on the RichFaces user list, but I didn't get 
any replies there so I try here instead in case someone has some knowledge 
about my problem .



I have a question when it comes to reRendering.



If I have a h:outputText with a valuebinding pointing to a backing-beans 
property (session scoped), I can reRender this outputText if I my value in bb 
change.



But If I have a h:panelGrid with componentBinding, and in the getter of the 
HtmlPanelGrid I add an OutputText-component programmatically, I can't reRender 
the HtmlPanelgrid with its children. The getter for the componentBinding is 
never asked.



I've also tried to put my panelGrid inside an a4j:panel with 
ajaxRendered="true", but this didn't help me either.



Am I missing something obvious here or shouldn't this work? :)



So, this works:


<h:inputText id="myinput" value="#{userBean.name}">



                <a4j:support event="onkeyup" reRender="outtext" />



            </h:inputText>



            <h:outputText id="outtext" value="#{userBean.name}" />



But this doesnt:





            <h:inputText id="myinput" value="#{userBean.name}">



                <a4j:support event="onkeyup" reRender="outPanel" />



            </h:inputText>



           <h:panelGrid id="outPanel" binding="#{userBean.panelGrid}">

          </h:panelGrid>



//----------------------------- JAVA code for componentBinding ---------------



public HtmlPanelGrid getPanelgrid()

{

      HtmlOutpuText out = new HtmlOutputText();

      out.setValueExpression(FacesContext. 
getCurrent...........#{userBean.name}......);



   panelGrid.getChildren().add(out);



   return panelGrid;



}



Any responses are greatly appreciated.
