bridge:inputFile and view scoped bean

[PortletFaces Community Member, modifié il y a 12 années.]

Hi.

In a JSF view I have a form with a bridge:inputFile in it and the view is backed a view scoped bean.
However, when I submit the form, the backing bean is re-instantiated as if it was a request scoped bean.
Removing the bridge:inputFile makes the bean behave as expected, i.e. not being re-instantiated at form submit.
I should also mention that this is in a portlet environment (Liferay).

Any ideas why this is happening?

Are you able to reproduce this problem with the example JSF 2 portlet?

I think it is setup the same way as yours -- the ApplicantBackingBean is annotated with @ViewScoped.
