Re: confused about selectOneItem and converter and data binding
Hi Simon
THANKS YOU VERY MUCH
I always forget that this is HTML and everything must be in the html -
its my mistake - thats why I was wondered about calls to getAsString
You are right about converter
about getAsString
If value in item property has type Number or so - just return object.toString();
Again thanks!

Re: confused about selectOneItem and converter and data binding
An html select element looks like this:
Volvo
Saab
Fiat
Audi
You have:
where the getSelectItems() method returns a list of SelectItem objects
whose string is the text you want to display, and the value is a
ComplexProp object, right?
So the renderer for the f:selectItems writes out one tag for
each item in the list. The body text for the tag is taken from
the SelectItem.label property. The SelectItem.value is a ComplexProp
object, and so the converter.getAsString method is called to generate
the string to write out as the "value" attribute. Obviously this occurs
once for each item in the list.
When the form is posted back, the browser will include in the posted
form data the *string value* of whatever option was selected by the
user. JSF calls the converter once, to map this string back to a
ComplexProp object, then (in update-model phase) stores the resulting
object using the "value" EL-expression of the h:selectOneMenu component.
So on render, getAsString is called N times, and on postback getAsObject
is called once.

Re: confused about selectOneItem and converter and data binding
Hi dushyant,
thanks for response -
which value I should return in getAsString method? - actual Key
element or Value element? - because the selectOneItem is populated by
SelectItem's elements.
and why in debug I see that getAsString method is being called for N
times (over all elements in binded array)?

Re: confused about selectOneItem and converter and data binding
In case of selection, the getAsObject would convert the selected value as
specified and send it to BB. In getAsString() method you again have to specify
some code to change the BB value into one of the values in the selectItem list,
bound to the selectOneMenu component.

confused about selectOneItem and converter and data binding
Hi all, have a problem I have the JSF Bean dataBean with property complexprop - the type of field is ComplexType I want to set an certain property to the bean via selectItems, which is being collected from the anotherDataBean.selectItems - it returns array of SelectItems. so it looks like Of course it wouldnt not work because JSF would try convert the String value from UI to internal dataBean.complexprop type and vice versa so I added the converter But I cannot understand how to work properly with it - during the call the method is being called for count = selectItems.size() Converter.getAsString(FacesContext facesContext, UIComponent uiComponent, Object o) What could be wrong? How to link together all such things?
