                 Key: MYFACES-1714
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MYFACES-1714
             Project: MyFaces Core
          Issue Type: Bug
    Affects Versions: 1.1.5
         Environment: tomcat 5.5.23
myfaces 1.1.5
tomahawk 1.1.5
ajax4jsf 1.1.1
            Reporter: Michael Heinen
            Priority: Critical


There is a serious conversion/validation problem with JSF in combination with 
ajax..
>From my point of view this is a major show stopper for jsf applications in 
>combination with ajax.

Therefore I created a simple demo application and attach it to this issue.
My form contains a few input fields for Strings, dates and a number. If an 
invalid format is entered then the submitted value is not erased and the page 
is rerendered with the entered value.
This is working fine so far.
 
The error occurs now if I click then another ajax command that forces a refresh 
of the invalid fields via ajax.
I use an a4j:commandButton with ajaxSingle=true and surrounded this button by 
an a4j:region in order to process no input fields on serverside.
The values that are bound via valueBinding to the inputFields are set to null 
or reinitialized in the invoked ActionListener.
But the old invalid data from the previous request is rerendered on the page.
 
This happens because the submitted values of the invalid inputFields are not 
null but still contain the old invalid data.
Therefore the valueBinding is not evaluated in the getter.
 
I can't set the submitted value to null in the converter because invalid values 
should be rerendered in case that a normal processing button (not cancel 
button) is clicked.

Pls have a look at the demo application:
Call ... faces/test.jsp

1) Enter some data
   (e.g name="twotest", startDate="01/01/70", endDate="01/01/70" 
message="hello" count=55)
   and click save
   Result: Everything works fine.The new object is rendered in the list

2) Enter invalid data
   (e.g. number=doh)
   and click save
   Result: conversion error "Count:": value is no valid number (don't know the 
correct english message)

3) Click create new
   Result: Field count does still contain the old value doh
   
4) Click Edit
   Result: Field count does still contain the old value doh
   The other fields are correctly initialized
   
My first approach was to except submittedValue from stateSaving but this did 
not solve the problem..
