I have a table in MySQL database. Unfortunately, there is a composite primary key which is needed for JAAS authentication/authorization in GlassFish Server.
mysql> desc group_table;
+---------------+--------------+------+-----+---------+-------+
| Field | Type | Null | Key | Default | Extra |
+---------------+--------------+------+-----+---------+-------+
| user_group_id | varchar(176) | NO | PRI | NULL | |
| group_id | varchar(15) | NO | PRI | NULL | |
+---------------+--------------+------+-----+---------+-------+
2 rows in set (0.05 sec)
The table contains data in the following format.
mysql> select * from group_table;
+-------------------------+------------+
| user_group_id | group_id |
+-------------------------+------------+
| [email protected] | ROLE_ADMIN |
| [email protected] | ROLE_USER |
| [email protected] | ROLE_USER |
| [email protected] | ROLE_USER |
| [email protected] | ROLE_USER |
+-------------------------+------------+
5 rows in set (0.00 sec)
A <p:dataTable>
with rowKey
works fine , when lazy
is set to false
.
<p:dataTable rowKey="#{row.groupTablePK.userGroupId} #{row.groupTablePK.groupId}">
...
</p:dataTable>
GroupTablePK
is an @Embeddable
class (JPA). The details about this class is not needed I presume.
When lazy
is however, enabled on a <p:dataTable>
, the getRowKey()
and the getRowData()
methods need to be implemented.
How can this be done, when there is a composite primary key which requires a combination of columns as a row key - a unique row identifier?
@Named
@ViewScoped
public class UserAuthorityManagedBean extends LazyDataModel<GroupTable> implements Serializable {
private static final long serialVersionUID = 1L;
@Override
public Object getRowKey(GroupTable groupTable) {
return groupTable != null ? groupTable.getGroupTablePK() : null;
}
@Override
public GroupTable getRowData(String rowKey) {
List<GroupTable> list = (List<GroupTable>) getWrappedData();
System.out.println("rowKey : " + rowKey);
}
@Override
public List<GroupTable> load(int first, int pageSize, List<SortMeta> multiSortMeta, Map<String, Object> filters) {
//... setRowCount(rowCount);
//... Return a List<GroupTable> from a business Service.
}
}
The above implementations are left incomplete.
When a row is selected in the <p:dataTable>
with these implementations, the sout
statement inside the getRowData()
method displays the following.
Info: rowKey : entity.GroupTablePK[ [email protected]
Info: rowKey : groupId=ROLE_USER ]
The getRowKey()
method returns an instance of GroupTablePK
but the getRowData()
method only accepts a String type parameter. It is not an object representing the composite primary key (hereby GroupTablePK
) so that it can be type-cast to an appropriate object type (GroupTablePK
) and based on which an instance of GroupTable
may be obtained from the given List<GroupTable>
and get the getRowData()
method to return that instance of GroupTable
.
How to proceed further?
The question is purely based on the immediate previous question :
EDIT:
I have hashcode()
and equals()
implementations in addition to toString()
in GroupTablePK
. The toString()
method in GroupTablePK
returns return "entity.GroupTablePK[ userGroupId=" + userGroupId + ", groupId=" + groupId + " ]";
but the getRowData()
method is invoked twice, when a row in a <p:dataTable>
is selected. It returns the string representation of GroupTablePK
in two parts in two subsequent calls. In the first call, it returns entity.GroupTablePK[ userGroupId=aaa
and then in the second call, it returns groupId=ROLE_USER ]
.
It should instead return entity.GroupTablePK[ userGroupId=aaa, groupId=ROLE_USER ]
at once in a single call.
This kind of comparison groupTable.getGroupTablePK().toString().equals(rowKey)
is therefore not possible which I was thinking about prior to this post. Such as,
@Override
public GroupTable getRowData(String rowKey) {
List<GroupTable> list = (List<GroupTable>) getWrappedData();
for (GroupTable groupTable : list) {
if (groupTable.getGroupTablePK().toString().equals(rowKey)) {
return groupTable;
}
}
return null;
}
EDIT 2:
The following is the shortest possible example removing the JPA noise to reproduce the problem.
Attempted alternatively on,
- PrimeFaces 3.5
- PrimeFaces 4.0
- PrimeFaces 5.0
- PrimeFaces 5.1
- PrimeFaces 5.2
The behaviour remains stationary on all of these versions of PrimeFaces.
The managed bean:
@Named
@ViewScoped
public class CompositeRowKeyManagedBean extends LazyDataModel<GroupTable> implements Serializable {
private List<GroupTable> selectedValues; // Getter & setter.
private static final long serialVersionUID = 1L;
public CompositeRowKeyManagedBean() {}
private List<GroupTable> init() {
List<GroupTable> list = new ArrayList<GroupTable>();
GroupTablePK groupTablePK = new GroupTablePK("aaa", "ROLE_ADMIN");
GroupTable groupTable = new GroupTable(groupTablePK);
list.add(groupTable);
groupTablePK = new GroupTablePK("bbb", "ROLE_USER");
groupTable = new GroupTable(groupTablePK);
list.add(groupTable);
groupTablePK = new GroupTablePK("ccc", "ROLE_USER");
groupTable = new GroupTable(groupTablePK);
list.add(groupTable);
groupTablePK = new GroupTablePK("ddd", "ROLE_USER");
groupTable = new GroupTable(groupTablePK);
list.add(groupTable);
groupTablePK = new GroupTablePK("eee", "ROLE_USER");
groupTable = new GroupTable(groupTablePK);
list.add(groupTable);
return list;
}
@Override
public List<GroupTable> load(int first, int pageSize, String sortField, SortOrder sortOrder, Map<String, Object> filters) {
List<GroupTable> list = init();
setRowCount(list.size());
return list;
}
@Override
public Object getRowKey(GroupTable groupTable) {
return groupTable != null ? groupTable.getGroupTablePK() : null;
}
@Override
public GroupTable getRowData(String rowKey) {
List<GroupTable> list = (List<GroupTable>) getWrappedData();
System.out.println("rowKey : " + rowKey);
for (GroupTable groupTable : list) {
if (groupTable.getGroupTablePK().toString().equals(rowKey)) {
return groupTable;
}
}
return null;
}
public void onRowEdit(RowEditEvent event) {
GroupTablePK groupTablePK = ((GroupTable) event.getObject()).getGroupTablePK();
System.out.println("grouoId : " + groupTablePK.getGroupId() + " : userGroupId : " + groupTablePK.getUserGroupId());
}
}
The data table :
<p:dataTable var="row"
value="#{compositeRowKeyManagedBean}"
lazy="true"
editable="true"
selection="#{compositeRowKeyManagedBean.selectedValues}"
rows="50">
<p:column selectionMode="multiple"></p:column>
<p:ajax event="rowEdit" listener="#{compositeRowKeyManagedBean.onRowEdit}"/>
<p:column headerText="GroupId">
<h:outputText value="#{row.groupTablePK.userGroupId}"/>
</p:column>
<p:column headerText="UserGroupId">
<p:cellEditor>
<f:facet name="output">
<h:outputText value="#{row.groupTablePK.groupId}"/>
</f:facet>
<f:facet name="input">
<p:inputText value="#{row.groupTablePK.groupId}"/>
</f:facet>
</p:cellEditor>
</p:column>
<p:column headerText="Edit">
<p:rowEditor/>
</p:column>
</p:dataTable>
When a row is attempted to edit, the onRowEdit()
method is invoked. The getRowData()
is invoked twice and produces a split of the row key in two subsequent calls as said earlier.
These are two domain classes GroupTable
and GroupTablePK
.
public class GroupTable implements Serializable {

}

int hash = 0;
hash += (groupTablePK != null ? groupTablePK.hashCode() : 0);

}

}
@Override

return hash;
}
@Override

return false;
}
GroupTablePK other = (GroupTablePK) object;
if ((this.userGroupId == null && other.userGroupId != null) || (this.userGroupId != null && !this.userGroupId.equals(other.userGroupId))) {
return false;
}
