Nested UI:Repeat ajax action fails when top level ui:repeat has no items for the nested ui:repeat

[ren-zhijun-oracle]

given the following code

<ui:repeat value="#

{bean.items}

" var="item"> <ui:repeat value="#

{item.subItems}

" var="subItem"> <h:commandButton value="#

{subItem.name}

" action="#

{bean.action}

">

</h:commandButton> </ui:repeat> </ui:repeat>

With a collection of items 3 items where the first one has some nested subItems, the second one does not (empty collection) but the third one does have some subItems. The action will not be called on any element that occurs AFTER the element with no subItems.

If you add a subItem to the second element, everything works as expected. It is always rendered as expected but the ajax breaks for every element that occurs after an element with no subItems.

VERY VERY Annoying. Can't test it on any later versions due to serious regressions in 2.0.3+ (nested ui:repeats don't work). It is however a different issue.

Environment

@javaserverfaces Commented adriaaaaan said: just it make it clear, any ajax button before the element with the empty collection of subItems works fine. This bug totally breaks both our dynamic menus (any menuItem without a submenu breaks every menuitem below it) and our "igoogle" style dashboard (any dashboard column that is empty breaks every widget to the right of it).
