[jboss-user] [JBoss Seam] - Re: Problems with convertEntity in seam cvs

You can't use convertEntity in this situation (it assumes that all objects in the list are entities, as would any converter).  You can extend org.jboss.seam.ui.EntityConverter:

@Name("myConverter")
  | @Converter
  | public void MyConverter extends EntityConverter {
  | 
  |    public String getAsString(...) {
  |       if ("separator".equals(value) {
  |          // it's not an entity, you deal with it here
  |       } else {
  |          return super.getAsString(...);
  |       }
  |    }
  | 
  |    // similar for getAsObject
  | }
  |   | 
  |   | then you use it
  |   | 
  |   | <f:converter id="myConverter" />
