UIInput

Synopsis

This class represents an input component. The user can enter a value for an input component, which is then saved as a property of an application class after conversion and validation. The default rendererType is javax.faces.Text.

When the value entered by a user is different than the previous value, the input component fires a ValueChangeEvent, which can be handled by the application through a value changed event method or one or more listeners, in the order: javax.faces.event.ValueChangeListener instances (in the order they are registered), and then the value change listener method.
