[solved] uioutput cannot be resolved to a type JSF

Error meaning is you did not import the UIOutput in your bean/controller.

So you have to import the below UIOutput package,

“import javax.faces.component.UIOutput;”

to resolve the uioutput cannot be resolved to a type error/exception.

If you are getting this exception in eclipse like in the below/similar line,

String ajaxListValue = (String) ((UIOutput) event.getSource()).getValue();

then you need to put the cursor near UIOutput and enter the Ctrl+Space to get the auto import suggestions.

In that select and import

“javax.faces.component.UIOutput;”
