How to use Primefaces' p:growl and redirect to a page
growl, jsf, primefaces, redirect
Solution
Messages get lost during redirect. You can use the flash to keep messages.
Add the following before returning from your action method:
FacesContext context = FacesContext.getCurrentInstance();
context.getExternalContext().getFlash().setKeepMessages(true);
Problem
hi im kind of new at jsf enviroment, im trying to update a primefaces growl and then redirect to a page from a commandButton action. ``` <p:commandButton value="Guardar" action="#{AgendamientoMBean.procesaAgendamientoJ()}" update="growlDetalle" /> ``` The managed bean code its ``` FacesContext context = FacesContext.getCurrentInstance(); context.addMessage(null, new FacesMessage(FacesMessage.SEVERITY_INFO, descripcion, detalle)); .... .... return "agp_bandeja_citas_llamadas?faces-redirect=true"; ``` This only redirectme to the page but doesnt show me the growl message, i tested that if change my method to not return the page the message does show.. I was trying to update the growl of the page that im redirecting but thats impossible i guess. i think that when redirecting i lost the update functionality because im in new page now. Is there a way to tell jsf to first do the update and then redirecting? Hope you can help me, thanks in advance
