Using primefaces you can generate a dialog and set a form to control what is rendered. An example code is below:
public void enterGroup(){
if(!AuthorizationUtils.isUserInRoles(new String[]{"UPDATER"})){
FacesContext context = FacesContext.getCurrentInstance();
context.addMessage(null, new FacesMessage(FacesMessage.SEVERITY_FATAL,
"Error", "The user does not have permissions to perform this
action."));
return;
}
else{
Map<String,Object> options = new HashMap<String, Object>();
options.put("resizable", false);
options.put("draggable", false);
options.put("modal", true);
options.put("width", 500);
options.put("height", 90);
options.put("contentWidth", "100%");
options.put("contentHeight", "100%");
PrimeFaces.current().dialog().openDynamic("entergroup",options,null);
}
}
My question is if anyone knows if there is a way to control what occurs is the dialog is X'ed out, rather than a user performing the actions on the dialog. I am aware that you can set closable to false and eliminate the X altogether, but that is not exactly user-friendly. I simply need to either be able to reset my dialog form when the X is clicked, or execute a method that clears some of my Beans, and was wondering if there is a way to do so. This is more cosmetic than vital. Any help would be appreciated! I have included the xhtml below if that aids in painting a picture.

You can do it this hacky way:
MyBean.java
:
import static java.util.Collections.emptyMap;
import java.util.HashMap;
import java.util.Map;
import javax.enterprise.context.RequestScoped;
import javax.inject.Named;
import org.primefaces.PrimeFaces;
@Named
@RequestScoped
public class MyBean {
public void dfShow() {
Map<String, Object> options = new HashMap<>();
// ...
PrimeFaces.current().dialog().openDynamic("entergroup", options, emptyMap());
}
public void dfClosed() {
PrimeFaces.current().dialog().closeDynamic("X");
}
}
And in your entergroup.xhtml
:
<h:body>
<h:outputScript>
$(document).ready(function(){
// try to get a reference to the DF widget from top window context:
var dfWidgetVar = window.top.$('[data-pfdlgcid]').attr('data-widgetvar');
var dfWidget = window.top.PF(dfWidgetVar);
// clear closeIcon click event listener stack and add your remoteCommand:
dfWidget.closeIcon.unbind('click').on('click', dfClosed);
});
</h:outputScript>
<h:form>
...
<p:remoteCommand name="dfClosed" action="#{myBean.dfClosed}"/>
</h:form>
</h:body>
