If Weekday is an java 5 enumeration (the approach should be almost
the same if you just have an int) I have just created a converter
class.
that implements javax.faces.convert.Converter and
something like org.springframework.context.MessageSourceAware(MessageSource is a
Spring class that represents a Message Bundle, I'm sure there are others if you
aren't using Spring)
In the
public String getAsString(FacesContext context, UIComponent
component, Object value) throws ConverterException
method, you just look up the text string in the Message
Source using the toString value of the enumeration. Value would be
something like Weekdays.MONDAY.
getMessageSource().getMessage(value.toString(), null,
context.getViewRoot().getLocale());
The correct string will be displayed if you have an entry in your
resource bundle that looks like this
MONDAY = Monday
When you want to output this string you just do this in your
page.
<t:outputText converter="#{WeekDayDisplayConverter}"
value="#{bean.weekday}"/>
then everything should work. (See the MyFaces
documentation for registering your converter)
