[jboss-user] [JBoss Seam] - Learning to use s:selectItems

[mikeeprice]

Using jboss-4.2.1.GA and jboss-seam-2.0.0.BETA1

Given in peoplePopup.xhtml

...
<h:selectOneMenu>
  <s:selectItems value="#{allPeople}" var="n" label="#{n.name}" />
</h:selectOneMenu>
...

in PersonManagerAction.java
...
    @DataModel
    private List allPeople;
    
    @DataModelSelection(value="allPeople")
    private Person selectedPerson;
...

allPeople has an @Factory method and the list pops up fine showing the names from all the Person entities and lets me make the selection

then the following is executed from a commandButton in peoplePopup.xhtml	
public void selectTest()
{
	System.out.println("******* selectTest Name= "+selectedPerson.getName());
}

always prints out the first item in the selection list regardless of which one I selected.

So I am thinking this is not the way to do this. I think it would be cool though.

In other words select a name in the popup list and have the selected value be the associated Person entity object.
