Facelets repeat Tag Index

Does anyone know a way to get the index of the element in a ui:repeat facelets 开发者_开发百科tag?

<ui:repeat id="topTenGrd" var="dream" value="#{dreamModifyBean.topDreams}">
    <h:outputText class="dream-title uppercase" value="#{dream.number}. #{dream.title}" />
</ui:repeat>

Specify a value for the "varStatus" attribute:

<ui:repeat id="..." var="..." value="..." varStatus="myVarStatus">

You can then access the loop index via EL:

#{myVarStatus.index}

Additionally, the following properties are available to the varStatus:

• begin of type Integer
• end of type Integer
• index of type int
• step of type Integer
• even of type boolean
• odd of type boolean
• first of type boolean
• last of type boolean

The answer by Brian is good but I think it could be a bit more descriptive for information.

We create UI:Repeat

<ui:repeat id="repeatOne" var="listofValues" varStatus="myVarStatus"> </ui:repeat>

Using UI Repeat we can access the values from the variable we associated with the list 'listofValues'.

Using varStatus we can create another variable that holds different type of information. For example using #{myVarStatus.index} in our list to create a table we can use this information for our index on our list.

Of course if you specify your array to start at 0 then so will your list unless you add 1 to each. #{myVarStatus.index + 1}

These are also very useful in 2D arrays that need to use 2 UI:Repeat that are nested.
