Hello, unfortunately, selectBooleanCheckbox does not give converters any chance to be called and assume backing property is of type boolean or java.lang.Boolean. >From HtmlCheckboxRendererBase, around line 300:
public Object getConvertedValue(FacesContext facesContext, UIComponent component, Object submittedValue) throws ConverterException { org.apache.myfaces.shared_impl.renderkit.RendererUtils.checkParamValidity(facesContext, component, null); if (component instanceof UISelectBoolean) { return submittedValue; while this is, as far as i know, consistent with JSF release implementation i don't see in specs where it should not call converter. On the other hand, the Renderer api clearly states that calling converter is "optional" :( what about using <h:selectOneRadio>and <f:selectItem> instead?
