Thanks. I've it implemented this way: public class SeverityConverter implements Converter { | public Object getAsObject(FacesContext context, UIComponent component, String value) throws ConverterException { | Converter entityConverter = (Converter) Component.getInstance("org.jboss.seam.ui.entityConverter"); | | if(NoSelectionConverter.NO_SELECTION_VALUE.equals(value)) { | return entityConverter.getAsObject(context, component, value); | } | | int severity = Integer.parseInt(value); | if(severity >= 0) { | return entityConverter.getAsObject(context, component, value); | } | | return AdditionalSeverities.getSeverityByID(severity); | } | | public String getAsString(FacesContext context, UIComponent component, Object value) throws ConverterException { | Converter entityConverter = (Converter) Component.getInstance("org.jboss.seam.ui.entityConverter"); | Severityclass severity = (Severityclass) value; | | if(severity == null || severity.getID() >= 0) { | return entityConverter.getAsString(context, component, value); | } | | return String.valueOf(severity.getID()); | } | } I'm wondering if the way I get the EntityConverter is OK or if there's a more elegant way.
