[richfaces-issues] [JBoss JIRA] (RF-11332) Improve AutoComplete component to support Object values separate from AutoCompleteinput field

[Brian Leathem (Updated) (JIRA)]

     [ https://issues.jboss.org/browse/RF-11332?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:all-tabpanel ]

Brian Leathem updated RF-11332:
-------------------------------

        Description: 
{code}
<rich:autocomplete id="client" value="#{newService.client}" autocompleteMethod="#{entitySearch.appEntityClients}" var="_a" fetchValue="#{_a}">
   <h:outputText value="#{_a.name}" />
</rich:autocomplete>
{code}

Given the above code the fetchValue which is placed in the generated inputText box is what is actually submitted with the form.

To support POJO selects what is needed is to have a value and a valueLabel so that the fetchValue can be displayed to the user but the acutal converted object value is submitted to the form.
