findComponent() - Problem

[Dominik Müller]

Hi together,

i try to find some specified Components (in a Lifecycle Listener).
Looks like this:

FacesContext ctx = FacesContext.getCurrentInstance();
UIViewRoot root = ctx.getViewRoot();
Iterator<String> clientIDs = ctx.getClientIdsWithMessages();

I recive all Client-IDs from the FacesContext for which message exists.
In Error-Case he supplies for example this:

"timeForm:projects:0:j_idt41:0:inputField"

looks ok for me, but

root.findComponent("timeForm:projects:0:j_idt41:0:inputField"));

return null.

Somebody an idea why he maybe can't find the client over the client-id?
In HTML-Source the ID: "timeForm:projects:0:j_idt41:0:inputField" is present!

thanks a lot
Dom
