Regression: Calendar: converter is not working
----------------------------------------------

                 Key: RF-8173
                 URL: https://jira.jboss.org/jira/browse/RF-8173
             Project: RichFaces
          Issue Type: Bug
      Security Level: Public (Everyone can see)
          Components: component-input, regression
    Affects Versions: 3.3.2.SR1
         Environment: JBoss 5.0 / Seam 2.1.2.GA
            Reporter: Joseph Miller


I have a model property with is a Joda LocalDate. For normal input fields, I have a converter, which is working fine. However, when I try to use the converter with rich:calendar, it complains:

            <rich:calendar id="from" locale="AU" showApplyButton="false" popup="true"
                           enableManualInput="true" datePattern="dd/MM/yyyy"
                           value="#{adviserAvailability.validFrom}">
                <f:converter converterId="localDateConverter" />
            </rich:calendar>

javax.faces.convert.ConverterException: Value must be a date
	at javax.faces.convert.DateTimeConverter.getAsObject(DateTimeConverter.java:401)
	at org.richfaces.component.UICalendar.getAsDate(UICalendar.java:399)
	at org.richfaces.component.UICalendar.getAsDate(UICalendar.java:410)
	at org.richfaces.component.UICalendar.getCurrentDateOrDefault(UICalendar.java:374)
	at org.richfaces.renderkit.html.CalendarRenderer.doEncodeEnd(CalendarRenderer.java:381)
	at org.richfaces.renderkit.html.CalendarRenderer.doEncodeEnd(CalendarRenderer.java:531)
	at org.ajax4jsf.renderkit.RendererBase.encodeEnd(RendererBase.java:134)
	at javax.faces.component.UIComponentBase.encodeEnd(UIComponentBase.java:861)
...

I'm defining the converter as such:

@Name( "localDateConverter" )
@BypassInterceptors
@Converter( forClass = LocalDate.class, id = "localDateConverter")
public class LocalDateConverter
        implements javax.faces.convert.Converter {
  public Object getAsObject( ... )  { .... }
  public String getAsString( ... )  { .... }
}

If I turn the property into a Date by using: value="#{adviserAvailability.validFrom.toDateMidnight().toDate()}"
I get a conversion error, as I would expect from with LocalDateConverter.getAsObject, so it's definitely being made available.

I get the same issue regardless of if I use <f:converter> or the converter attribute of <rich:calendar>
