JSF:SelectOneMenu validating

  Asked By: Adelisa    Date: Jul 09    Category: Java    Views: 2356
  

I have a dropdownList and its binded to a Long value in my managed Bean,

But I am getting "Value is not valid" error
here is my code


<h:selectOneMenu  id="testSelectOneMenu"    value="#{myBean.LongParameter}" >
                                <f:selectItem id="item1" itemLabel="News" itemValue="1" />
                                  <f:selectItem id="item2" itemLabel="Sports" itemValue="2" />     
                                <f:converter   converterId="javax.faces.Long" />
  </h:selectOneMenu>

interesting things is if i change it to 
<h:inputText  id="testInputText"    value="#{myBean.LongParameter}" >                               
                                <f:converter   converterId="javax.faces.Long" />
  </h:inputText >



it works fine..

Can anybody explain this behavior?

you have several approach to solve this problem :
1- use tomahawk taglib converter to solve your problem.
2- use MyFaces or RI converter to do this.
3- develop custom converter to solve your problem.
But don't forget this, easiest of all is bind your value to string field in your Bean and
when you wanna use it, convert it to long.

I don't know what you have been expecting,
but the way you have used <f:selectItem ...> it returns String (not Long)

and a note about JSF standards components:
they are very simple minimal components just to show how JSF should be.
for real world projects you have to choose a 3'rd party component set either open source or commercial.
