hi After submitting a form for saving a "Dossier", I'm getting the jsf validation error "value is not valid" for the value "Paiement" selected from a dropdown list . For that dropdown list i used the seam entity converter. i overrid the methods equals and hashcode for the entity (Paiement) that is to be displayed in the dropdownlist. i checked the html generated by seam for the dropdownlist and the values are correct. they match the primary key (Paiement.id) Any idea of what's going wrong? Below i copied some code to make it clearer. Dossier | public class Dossiers implements java.io.Serializable { | | private Integer dosId; | | | | private Paiement paiement; | | @ManyToOne(fetch = FetchType.LAZY) | @JoinColumn(name = "pai_id", nullable = false) | @NotNull | public Paiement getPaiement() { | return this.paiement; | } | | public void setPaiement(Paiement paiement) { | this.paiement = paiement; | } | | Paiement : | @Override | public boolean equals(Object obj) { | if (!(obj != null && obj instanceof Paiement)) | return false; | Paiement ct = (Paiement) obj; | if (paiId.equals(ct.paiId)) | return true; | return false; | } | | @Override | public int hashCode() { | return paiId==null ? 0 : paiId.hashCode(); | } | | the view | <h:selectOneMenu value="#{dossier.paiement}" id="paiement" layout="pageDirection" styleClass="radio" required="true" > | <s:selectItems value="#{referential.listePaiements}" var="paiement" label="#{paiement.libelles[langUser].libLib}"/> | <s:convertEntity/> | </h:selectOneMenu> | View the original post : http://www.jboss.com/index.html?module=bb&op=viewtopic&p=4122740#...
