* PROBLEM DESCRIPTION: State of composite components is not    *
*                      saved within ui:repeat elements         *
****************************************************************
* RECOMMENDATION:                                              *
****************************************************************
When composite component input fields are used inside ui:repeat
elements,
updates to those fields does not work. This means that the
state
of composite
components are not saved after form submission.
In the following example, the selectBooleanCheckbox state would
not be saved:
myCompositeComponent.xhtml
<cc:interface>
<cc:attribute name="state" type="com.ibm.ws.jsf.beans.State"/>
</cc:interface>
<cc:implementation>
<h:selectBooleanCheckbox id="checkboxId" value="#
{cc.attrs.state.state}"/>
<h:outputText value="State: #{cc.attrs.state.state}"/>
</cc:implementation>
index.xhtml
<h:form id="form" prependId="false">
<ui:repeat id="uiRepeatId" value="#{modelBean.states}"
var="state">
<compositeTest:myCompositeComponent id="myCompositeComponent1"
state="#{state}"/>
</ui:repeat>
<br/>
<h:commandButton id="submitButton" value="Submit"/>
</h:form>

Problem conclusion

The JSF MyFaces 2.0 code was updated to allow the state of compo
saved within ui:repeat elements.
