ConverterChain.getAsString behaves incorrectly if the input is String already ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- Key: JBSEAM-1355 URL: http://jira.jboss.com/jira/browse/JBSEAM-1355 Project: JBoss Seam Issue Type: Bug Affects Versions: 1.2.1.GA Reporter: Sergey Koshcheyev ConverterChain.getAsString(FacesContext context, UIComponent component, Object value) will return null if value is String already. It should cast the value to String and return that instead. Proposed fix: change String output = null; to String output = value instanceof String ? (String) value : null; This happens when UIComponent.value is bound to a String property. In this case no "final" converter will be added to the chain, so output will be null after the loop in getAsString. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - If you think it was sent incorrectly contact one of the administrators: http://jira.jboss.com/jira/secure/Administrators.jspa - For more information on JIRA, see: http://www.atlassian.com/software/jira
