I am currently working on a web project with Java EE and I recently decided to improve my coding thanks to frameworks Hibernate-Spring-JSF. However I encountered a problem. When I try to display the content of a managed bean, nothing is printed.
Here is the code of my managedBean :
@ManagedBean( name = "moviesBean" )
@SessionScoped
public class MoviesBean implements Serializable {
@Autowired
private transient MoviesService moviesService;
private List<Movies> moviesList;
private Movies movie;
@ManagedProperty( value = "test" )
private String genre;
@PostConstruct
public void init() {
movie = moviesService.getById( 3502914 );
System.out.println( "Id : " + movie.getImdbid() );
}
public List<Movies> getMoviesList() {
return moviesList;
}
public void setMoviesList( List<Movies> moviesList ) {
this.moviesList = moviesList;
}
public Movies getMovie() {
return movie;
}
public void setMovie( Movies movie ) {
this.movie = movie;
}
}
And the code of my jsp :
<%@ page language="java" contentType="text/html; charset=UTF-8"
pageEncoding="UTF-8"%>
<%@ taglib uri="http://java.sun.com/jsf/core" prefix="f" %>
<%@ taglib uri="http://java.sun.com/jsf/html" prefix="h" %>
<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/loose.dtd">
<html>
<head>
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=UTF-8">
<title>Movies detail</title>
</head>
<body>
<f:view>
<h:outputText value="#{moviesBean.genre }"/>
</f:view>
</body>
</html>
So, as you can see I just try to print the value of the field 'genre' of the bean MovieesBean, but all I have in return is a blank page. Am I doing something wrong ? Knowing that I have not any errors on the server side (I am using Tomcat 7). Here are the jars in the build path :
I googled this problem several times but didn't find any solution. Thanks in advance for your help !
