Issue with f:setPropertyActionListener and h:dataTable

I am trying to pass two parameters i.e. (nomComposantARejouer, typeFileARejouer) to an action method (gestionnaireMessagesController.rejouerMessage) using the setPropertyActionListener (we use jsf 1.2).

Here is the relevant jsp code:

<h:column>
<h:columnHeaderFacet>
<h:columnHeader value="#{msgs['pilotage.coordinateur.libelle.rejouer']}" />
</h:columnHeaderFacet>
<h:commandLink id="rejouer"
value="#{msgs['pilotage.coordinateur.libelle.rejouer']}"
action="#{gestionnaireMessagesController.rejouerMessage}">
<f:setPropertyActionListener
target="#{gestionnaireMessagesController.nomComposantARejouer}"
value="#{gestionnaireMessagesController.nomComposant}" />
<f:setPropertyActionListener
target="#{gestionnaireMessagesController.typeFileARejouer}"
value="#{gestionnaireMessagesController.typeFile}" />
</h:commandLink>
</h:column>

However, I always get a NPE because both parameters are null when used in the action method:

public String rejouerMessage() {
    log.debug("-->"+nomComposantARejouer);//null
    ParamResultatMessagesDTO message= (ParamResultatMessagesDTO) messagesTableau.getRowData();
    log.debug("MessageId: " + message.getMessageId());
    try {
        Pager p = Pager.getInstance();
        ParamRejouerMessageDTO prm = new ParamRejouerMessageDTO();
        prm.setMessageId(message.getMessageId());
        prm.setFileGet(nomsFilesMap.get(nomComposantARejouer).get(typeFileARejouer));
        prm.setFilePut(nomsFilesMap.get(nomComposantARejouer).get("TASKQ"));
        RejouerMessageService serv = (RejouerMessageService) this.getService(ServiceCst.REJOUER_MESSAGE_SERVICE);
        serv.rejouerMessage(prm);
    } catch (BusinessException e) {
        this.addMessage(e);
    } catch (ServiceException e) {
        this.addMessage(e);
    }


    return chargerPage(); // TODO Navigation case.
}

I am not sure what I am getting wrong. Can anyone please help?

FYI, the variables nomComposant and typeFile can be displayed without problem and are not null.

Also ignore the h:columnHeaderFacet tags. They are inhouse tags that I've renamed.

You're basically doing:

gestionnaireMessagesController.setNomComposantARejouer(gestionnaireMessagesController.getNomComposant());
gestionnaireMessagesController.setTypeFileARejouer(gestionnaireMessagesController.getTypeFile());

during the invoke action phase of the form submit. Both properties are in the same bean instance and copied shortly before action method is invoked. This makes no sense. You seem to be expecting that the value is evaluated during the request of displaying the form. You seem to be thinking that <f:setPropertyActionListener> sets a request parameter. This is not true. The <f:param> is the only which does that.

So, this should do,

<f:param
    name="nomComposantARejouer"
    value="#{gestionnaireMessagesController.nomComposant}" />
<f:param
    name="typeFileARejouer"
    value="#{gestionnaireMessagesController.typeFile}" />

in combination with the following on <managed-bean> of gestionnaireMessagesController in faces-conig.xml:

<managed-property>
    <property-name>nomComposantARejouer</property-name>
    <value>#{param.nomComposantARejouer}</value>
</managed-property>
<managed-property>
    <property-name>typeFileARejouer</property-name>
    <value>#{param.typeFileARejouer}</value>
</managed-property>

(you can if necessary remove ARejouer so that it reuses the same property)

I have often encountered this problem , it occours when there are two f:setPropertyActionListener.

You try in this way: 

 <h:commandLink id="rejouer"
    value="#{msgs['pilotage.coordinateur.libelle.rejouer']}"
     action="#{gestionnaireMessagesController.rejouerMessage}"> <f:param
    name="nomComposant"
    value="#{gestionnaireMessagesController.nomComposant}"   />   
   <f:param name="typeFile"
    value="#{gestionnaireMessagesController.typeFile}" />   
  </h:commandLink>
