<s:selectItems> enhancement to allow for non-ID field when used with <s:convertEntity/> --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Key: JBSEAM-1768 URL: http://jira.jboss.com/jira/browse/JBSEAM-1768 Project: JBoss Seam Issue Type: Feature Request Components: JSF Affects Versions: 2.0.0.BETA1 Reporter: Nicklas Karlsson Priority: Optional When using an entity like @Entity public class Person { @Id private Integer id; private String firstName; private String lastName; private String personnelCode; ... } It would be handy if it could be possible to use <h:selectOneMenu value="#{project.managerCode}"> <s:selectItems value="#{bean.managerList}" var="manager" label="#{manager.lastName}, #{manager.firstName}" insertValue="#{manage.personnelCode}"/> <s:convertEntity /> </h:selectOneMenu> e.g. being able to choose which field (in this case the manager personnel code) would be selected (instead of the entity ID)
