I have a base page that uses a ui:include to include another page. The ui:include uses a ui:param to pass a parameter to the included page. The param is read in the PostConstruct method of the included page's controller.
This design works fine until I add a composite component to the base page; once added, the included page controller reports that the ui:param's value is null. Once I remove the composite component from the page, the ui:param is able to be read (i.e. is not null) by the included page's controller. Please help!
Files to reproduce the problem:
myPage.xhtml
<html xmlns:ui="http://java.sun.com/jsf/facelets"
xmlns:mycomponents="http://java.sun.com/jsf/composite/mycomponents">
<ui:include src="includePage.xhtml">
<ui:param name="myParam" value="myValue"/>
</ui:include>
<p/>
<mycomponents:myComponent/>
</html>
myIncludedPage.xhtml
<ui:composition xmlns:ui="http://java.sun.com/jsf/facelets">
The value of the param is: #{includedPageController.myParam}
</ui:composition>
myComponent.xhtml (placed in "resources/mycomponents")
<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml"
xmlns:composite="http://java.sun.com/jsf/composite">
<composite:interface/>
<composite:implementation>
I am the composite component

IncludedPageController.java
@ManagedBean
public class IncludePageController
{
String myParam;
@PostConstruct
private void init()
{
FaceletContext faceletContext = (FaceletContext)FacesContext.getCurrentInstance().
getAttributes().get(FaceletContext.FACELET_CONTEXT_KEY);
myParam = (String)faceletContext.getAttribute("myParam");
}
public String getMyParam()
{
return myParam;
}
public void setMyParam(String myParam)
{
this.myParam = myParam;
}
}
