How do I set the value of HtmlOutputText in JSF?

Question

I want to dynamically create a form with my bean. I am using JSF 2.0

HtmlOutputText htmlOutputText = new HtmlOutputText();

How should I set the content of HtmlOutputText?

Answer 1

HtmlOutputText extends javax.faces.component.UIOutput.

UIOutput#setValue() is the method you are looking for:

String value;
HtmlOutputText htmlOutputText = new HtmlOutputText();
htmlOutputText.setValue(value);
