I think there is an error in smartgwtee-2.5, class FacetValueMap, method getMapping – return is missing:
/**
* Get the facetValue id for some facet id within this facet valueMap
* @param facetId
*/
public void getMapping(String facetId) {
getAttributeAsString(facetId);
}
Workaround
facetValueMap.getAttributeAsString(facetId);
