I use primefaces with facelets and i have a quastion:

for example i have dataGrid and i want to call method of bean, that registered in faces-config, to include some dynamic content:

<p:dataGrid var="provider" value="#{paymentFormBean.providers}">
   <ui:include src="contentFactory.getSpecificForm('some attribute')"/>
</p:dataGrid>

How could i invoke getSpecificForm method with argument from var of dataGrid? Something like: 

<p:dataGrid var="provider" value="#{paymentFormBean.providers}">
   <ui:include src="contentFactory.getSpecificForm(provider.formName)"/>
</p:dataGrid>

UPDATE: if i try to invoke method in actionListener of any component in dataGrid:

<p:commandLink update="details" actionListener="#{contentFactory.getSpecificForm(provider.formName)}" />

then attribute is passed corretly, but in ui:include the value is empty

Could anyone help me?
Thank you

    Just make ContentFactory a managed bean

    @ManagedBean
@RequestScoped // Or whatever
public class ContentFactory {

    public String getSpecificForm(String formName) {
        return null; // TODO: implement.
    }

}

    so that you can use EL to invoke it

    <ui:include src="#{contentFactory.getSpecificForm(provider.formName)}" />

    Update: I forgot, ui:include inside an UI repeater doesn’t work. Consider using c:forEach instead of p:dataGrid. You’ll only have to apply/nest the desired components and/or HTML/CSS yourself inside the c:forEach.

    <html xmlns:c="http://java.sun.com/jstl/core">
...

<c:forEach var="provider" items="#{paymentFormBean.providers}">
    <ui:include src="#{contentFactory.getSpecificForm(provider.formName)}" />
</c:forEach>
