Question

I am working on a sample app with primefaces 3 , using datatables incell editing mode. Although when i edit , i see the event.getObjects gives me the object which is not modified.

Changed the property of the object on debug mode, it does update.

So i couldn’t figure out why i cant get the edited property.

Below are my eventlistener method and the xhtml;

Any pointers are welcomed

Thanks in advance

EventListener

public void editListener(RowEditEvent event){
    System.out.println("EDIT LISTENER");
    update((Employer)event.getObject());

}

   <h:form id="form">
                <h1><h:outputText value="List"/></h1>

After this…

<p:dataTable value="#{employer.employers}" var="item" paginator="true" 
    rows="10" style="width:300px">

…put the following:

<p:ajax event="rowEdit" update="@this" listener="#{HandlerClassName.rowEditListener}" />
