When trying to open a Popup on JSF/JSFF page programmatically through Managed Bean, use the following method and pass the ID of the popup to the method:
public void openPopup(String popupId) {
ExtendedRenderKitService erkService =
Service.getService(FacesContext.getCurrentInstance().getRenderKit(),
ExtendedRenderKitService.class);
erkService.addScript(FacesContext.getCurrentInstance(),
"var hints = {autodismissNever:true}; " +
"AdfPage.PAGE.findComponent('" + popupId +
"').show(hints);");
}
OR
On the button , write a method on the action event.
public void ShowPopup(ActionEvent actionEvent) {
RichPopup.PopupHints hints = new RichPopup.PopupHints();
this.getPopUp().show(hints);
}
If you want to hide the popup..you can write like this
public void HidePopup(ActionEvent actionEvent) {
RichPopup.PopupHints hints = new RichPopup.PopupHints();
this.getPopUp().hide();
}
General use is when you wish to call the a popup from a button press but first want to execute some actions/processings in the screen on the button click.
In the button on the JSFF, just add a actionListener and then call the openPopup() method from the action listener or any other method you wish to.
