--- Begin Message ---Hi Magodlna, Many thanks for the information. I will implement this right away. regards, Anshuman________________________________ From: magdolna holitska [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Wed 1/31/2007 3:56 AM To: [email protected] Subject: RE: Custom messages for converters Hi Anshuman, You could just try something like: <tr:inputText label="test" converter="myCustomDateTimeConverter"/> As the message is set in the converter you could use if-else logic or something similar to set different messages. Note that you don't have to hard code the actual messages, you can still store them externally in a properties file - same for the pattern.

But then how do we configure this new datetime converter class in your faces application. is it via using something like this: <converter> <converter-id>javax.faces.DateTime</converter-id> <converter-class>test.converter.CustomDateTimeConverter</converter-class> </converter> in the faces-config.xml? One more thing this will lead to the problem of what if I want to display different messages in different places for the same <tr:convertDatetime>? Can it be done programatically by catching hold of the UIXComponent and then setXXX() methods on to the UIXComponent? regards, Anshuman ________________________________ From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] on behalf of Matthias Wessendorf Sent: Fri 1/26/2007 12:48 PM To: [email protected] Subject: Re: Custom messages for converters well, at least you can create a custom converter, which isn't really to much :) You also could extend the standard datetimeconverter and override the getAsXxx and catch the exceptions, to throw your own. -M On 1/25/07, magdolna holitska <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: >Hi, > >I just would like to share my findings, after upgrading to the latest >version of Trinidad: > >1. -- Overriding >org.apache.myfaces.trinidad.convert.DateTimeConverter.CONVERT_BOTH and >org.apache.myfaces.trinidad.convert.DateTimeConverter.CONVERT_BOTH_detail >did not work > >2. -- messageDetailConvertBoth works, as long as you don's set the pattern >As I understood this is intentional, to only allow customization of the >message if the pattern is not set (I don't know why) > >3. -- for achieving both customize message and also set the pattern, I >ended >up writing my own converter.
