[richfaces-issues] [JBoss JIRA] Resolved: (RF-10170) Improve Converter finding if EL expression is semi-resolvable

Improve Converter finding if EL expression is semi-resolvable ------------------------------------------------------------- Key: RF-10170 URL: https://issues.jboss.org/browse/RF-10170 Project: RichFaces Issue Type: Enhancement Security Level: Public(Everyone can see) Components: compatibility Affects Versions: 4.Future Environment: RichFaces 4 svn rev. 20933 Reporter: Martin Kočí Assignee: Nick Belaevski Fix For: 4.0.0.CR1 example (#{bean.propertyNull} resolves to null): <h:inputText value="#{bean.propertyNull.zeitangabe}" /> outputs a input field <r:calendar value="#{bean.propertyNull.zeitangabe}" /> throws value="#{bean.propertyNull.zeitangabe}": Target Unreachable, 'propertyNull' returned null Problem is in org.richfaces.component.util.SelectUtils.findConverter: method tries to locate a Converter even if informations for this are "uknown". Simple solution can be: find converter only for ValueExpression which leads to not null value, because if no value for "value" ValueExpression :), then no conversion getAsString is necessary (at least is is true if spec does not mandates conversion for null value).
