Iterate through List using JSF 2

Question

I have this java code.

List myList = new ArrayList();
myList.add(\"Hello\");
myList.add(\"World\");

I need to loop

Answer 1

You can use <ui:repeat>:

<ui:repeat value="#{bean.myList}" var="value">
    #{value} <br />
</ui:repeat>

If you're not sure if you should use <h:dataTable> or <ui:repeat>, you can check an example that mkyong provides here: JSF 2 repeat tag example

In short: <h:dataTable> renders a <table> HTML component, while <ui:repeat> gives you the flexibility to choose how to display the data.
