Allow EntityConverter to work with h:inputText and rich:suggestionBox --------------------------------------------------------------------- Key: JBSEAM-1067 URL: http://jira.jboss.com/jira/browse/JBSEAM-1067 Project: JBoss Seam Issue Type: Feature Request Components: Core Affects Versions: 1.2.0.GA Environment: All Reporter: Damian Harvey Priority: Minor There is a requirement to be able to use the entityConverter or similar pattern in conjunction with h:inputText and the rich:suggestionBox. Ideally it would operate in a similar fashion to how the s:selectItems can take an entity and display a label. When persisting the entity is sent from the form rather than the value of the h:inputText The same functionality would also be useful with the icefaces Suggestion box.
