Ajax update of datatable from a modal after filtering

My question is very similar to this: Ajax update doesn't work, when using filter on datatable (JSF, Primefaces).

I have a dataTable with an "Open" button (a commandButton) for each entry/row in the table, on click of which, a dialog will open. I have a form in the dialog that I can update and save. Once I save my changes, I will get back on the dataTable closing the dialog I'm in, updating the results of the save that happened in the dialog on the entry in the table (whose "Open" was clicked to open the dialog).

If I save the results from the dialog and use the update attribute to update the results of the save on the table entry, it works fine. However, if the dataTable was filtered in the first place and then the dialog was opened, then the update does not result in update of the table entry until I actually refresh/reload the page.

The

oncomplete="PF(':parentForm:dataTableVar').filter()"

and

oncomplete="PF(':parentForm:dataTableVar').clearFilters()"

solutions recommended in the other question I referenced don't seem to have any effect in my case.

Any suggestions?

I use JSF v2.1.19 and PrimeFaces v5.1.

It was my mistake to mention the id in place of the widgetVar. This:

oncomplete="PF('myTableWidget').filter()"

would work fine if the dataTable in question looks like:

<p:dataTable id="myTable" widgetVar="myTableWidget"...

I was wrongly trying it this way:

oncomplete="PF('myTable').filter()"

You need to mark the list in the attribute filteredValue on dataTable. Ex: <p:dataTable filteredValue="#{bean.anotherListWithTheSameType}" />

In dialog, it's necessary filteredValue. From here: http://www.primefaces.org/docs/vdl/4.0/primefaces-p/dataTable.html
