  ****************************************************************
  * PROBLEM DESCRIPTION: The h:selectManyCheckbox and            *
  *                      h:selectOneRadio components do not      *
  *                      support f:ajax tags if the id           *
  *                      attribute is not specified.             *
  ****************************************************************
  * RECOMMENDATION:                                              *
  ****************************************************************
  It is necessary to have an id for components that have client
  behaviors. This id is not generated as it should be for either
  the h:selectManyCheckbox or h:selectOneRadio components if
  they have client behaviors.
  If either h:selectOneRadio or h:selectManyCheckbox do not have
  an id specified, f:ajax tags will not work correctly.
  

Problem conclusion

• The JSF MyFaces code was updated to allow f:ajax tags to work
  with h:selectManyCheckbox and h:selectOneRadio components
  even if an id is not specified.
  
  The fix for this APAR is currently targeted for inclusion in
  fix packs 8.0.0.12 and 8.5.5.9. Please refer to the
