as seen in the following example: ... public class Config { /** * @return States */ public States getStates() { FacesContext facesContext = FacesContext.getCurrentInstance(); States states = new States(); // Registering new User State definition states.setCurrentState("register"); // Name of the new state // Text labels, properties and Labels for controls in "register" state states.put("showConfirm", Boolean.TRUE); // confirm field rendering states.put("link", "(To login)"); // Switch State link label states.put("okBtn", "Register"); // Login/Register button label states.put("stateTitle", "Register New User"); // Panel title ExpressionFactory expressionFactory = facesContext.getApplication() .getExpressionFactory(); // Define "registerbean" available under "bean" EL binding on the page ValueExpression beanExpression = expressionFactory .createValueExpression(facesContext.getELContext(), "#{registerbean}", Bean.class); states.put("bean", beanExpression); // Define "registeraction" available under "action" EL binding on the // page beanExpression = expressionFactory.createValueExpression(facesContext .getELContext(), "#{registeraction}", RegisterAction.class); states.put("action", beanExpression); // Define method expression inside registeraction binding for this state MethodExpression methodExpression = expressionFactory.createMethodExpression( facesContext.getELContext(), "#{registeraction.ok}", String.class, new Class[] {}); states.put("ok", methodExpression); // Outcome for switching to login state definition states.setNavigation("switch", "login"); // Login Existent User State analogous definition states.setCurrentState("login"); states.put("showConfirm", Boolean.FALSE); states.put("link", "(To register)"); states.put("okBtn", "Login"); states.put("stateTitle", "Login Existing User"); beanExpression = expressionFactory.createValueExpression(facesContext .getELContext(), "#{loginbean}", Bean.class); states.put("bean", beanExpression); beanExpression = expressionFactory.createValueExpression(facesContext .getELContext(), "#{loginaction}", LoginAction.class); states.put("action", beanExpression); methodExpression = expressionFactory.createMethodExpression( facesContext.getELContext(), "#{loginaction.ok}", String.class, new Class[] {}); states.put("ok", methodExpression); states.setNavigation("switch", "register"); return states; } } ... The second bean, with the org.richfaces.ui.model.States type (state), contains the managed property states, which is bound to the first config bean.
