Hello, I have an @ApplicationException, which I want to handle with Seam. In particular, I want to convert a page parameter to an entity, and if the page parameter points to a non-existing entity, an exception is thrown. The exception is defined as follows: | <exception class="item.ItemNotFoundException"> | <redirect view-id="/error.xhtml"> | <message severity="ERROR">The item was not found.</message> | </redirect> | </exception> | If I do: | <page view-id="/item/item_view.xhtml" action="#{itemView.loadItem}"> | <param name="name" value="#{itemView.itemName}" /> | </page> | and the "#{itemView.loadItem}" method throws an exception, the browser redirects to /error.xhtml, and the message is displayed. But if I do: | <page view-id="/item/item_edit.xhtml"> | <param name="name" value="#{itemEdit.item}" converter="#{itemConverter}" /> | </page> | and the converter throws an excpetion, the browser still redirects to /error.xhtml, but the message is not displayed. How can I change that? Obviously, conversion happens at an earlier phase than rendering the response, so the exception can be caught (and is :) ), but maybe I don't see the message because the conversation context isn't yet created?
