Class RestorableViewHandler

java.lang.Object

javax.faces.application.ViewHandler

javax.faces.application.ViewHandlerWrapper

org.omnifaces.viewhandler.RestorableViewHandler

All Implemented Interfaces:

FacesWrapper<ViewHandler>

public class RestorableViewHandler
extends ViewHandlerWrapper

This view handler implementation will recreate the entire view state whenever the view has apparently been expired, i.e. whenever restoreView(FacesContext, String) returns null and the current request is a postback and the view in question has <enableRestorableView> in the metadata. This effectively prevents the ViewExpiredException on the view.

Since:

1.3
