Create composite component for f:metadata

Question

I want to create a composite component which adds some common meta data to views, like:

<viewController:metadata controller="orderController"/>

the component:

<composite:interface> <composite:attribute name="controller" /> </composite:interface> <composite:implementation> <f:metadata> <f:viewParam name="id" value="#{cc.attrs.controller.id}" /> <f:event type="preRenderView" listener="#{cc.attrs.controller.initConversation}" /> </f:metadata> </composite:implementation>

i do similar things to add a button bar to all views and it works fine, but it seems its not possible with f:metadata.

Am i right or is there something wrong with my code?

thanks

This isn't possible. The <f:metadata> has to go in the view associated with the view ID. See also the tag documentation (emphasis mine):

Declare the metadata facet for this view. This must be a child of the <f:view>. This tag must reside within the top level XHTML file for the given viewId, or in a template client, but not in a template. The implementation must insure that the direct child of the facet is a UIPanel, even if there is only one child of the facet. The implementation must set the id of the UIPanel to be the value of the UIViewRoot.METADATA_FACET_NAME symbolic constant.

Hi @BalusC. I'm looking for something like that too. Is there another way to achieve this kind of component?
