This is really frustrating.I mean I wasted my whole sunday finding out why the " inputSecret " is not passing the value to the backing bean.It is always passing null to the backing bean.long story short,on a login screen , when you pass username and password nothings happens when you click the submit button...

I am using myeclipse 7.1.1 and icefaces 1.7.2....I have tried in so many scenarios but nothing worked for me.is this a bug in myeclipse or icefaces? .....any help would be really appreciated.

MyEclipse: 7.1.1
icefaces :1.7.2

I posted this in the icefaces forum,but was not of a much help.here is the link for the post in icefaces forum

Here is the original code:

                  </ice:inputText>
                  
                  <ice:outputLabel for="password">
                     <ice:outputText value="Password" />
                  </ice:outputLabel>
                  <ice:inputSecret
                  action="#{UserBean.loginUser}"
                  id="password"></ice:inputSecret>
                  
                  <ice:panelGroup>

                  </ice:panelGroup>
                  <ice:commandButton value="Login" action="#{UserBean.loginUser}" id="submit" />

            </ice:form>

Code:

backing bean :i am pasting here only the action method

public String loginUser() {

FacesContext facesContext = FacesContext.getCurrentInstance();

if("myeclipse".equals(getUserName()) && "myeclipse".equals(getPassword())) {
return"success";
}
FacesMessage facesMessage = new FacesMessage(
"You have entered an invalid user name and/or password");
facesContext.addMessage("loginForm", facesMessage);

return "failure";
}

Then people suggested so many ways but nothing worked for me.one of the solution was to add the actionListner to inputSecret,but didn't work either.Here is one of the suggestion I have tried with

Code:

Please help me !!!!!!!!!

Hi,
I just got a reply from the dev team and this seems like an ICEfaces issue. You will have to check with them on their forums.

It looks like you are missing a 'value' attribute on your inputSecret tag (password), so the JSF Framework has nothing to 'set'.
