    problem with s:convertEntity and h:selectManyListbox

    vitalik

      I have trouble with <s:convertEntity/>. On my display appear error message: "Conversion Error setting value '1 2' for '#{resourceCatalog.resources}'."
      My env:
      JBoss 4.0.5
      JBoss Seam 1.2.1.GA
      Sun RI 1.2_04

      I have two entity bean: Resource and ResourceCatalog:

      @javax.persistence.Entity
      @javax.persistence.Table(name = "RESOURCE_CATALOG")
      @javax.persistence.NamedQuery(name = "ResourceCatalog.findAll", query = "select resourceCatalog from ResourceCatalog AS resourceCatalog")
      public class ResourceCatalog
       implements java.io.Serializable, Comparable<ResourceCatalog>
      {

      Snippet from components.xml:
       <factory name="resource" value="#{resourceHome.instance}" />
       <fwk:entity-home name="resourceHome"
       entity-class="my.model.resource.Resource"
       entity-manager="#{entityManager}">
       </fwk:entity-home>
       <fwk:entity-query name="resourceCollection" ejbql="from Resource" />
       <factory name="resourceCatalog" value="#{resourceCatalogHome.instance}" />
       <fwk:entity-home name="resourceCatalogHome"
       entity-class="my.model.resource.ResourceCatalog"
       entity-manager="#{entityManager}">
       </fwk:entity-home>
       <fwk:entity-query name="resourceCatalogCollection" ejbql="from ResourceCatalog" />
      

      Snippet from edit page:
      <h:selectManyListbox value="#{resourceCatalog.resources}">
       <s:selectItems var="field" label="#{field.name}" value="#{resourceCollection.resultList}" />
       <s:convertEntity/>
      </h:selectManyListbox>
      

      I get validation error message when i try submit entity ResourceCatalog.
      I start seam-ui from examples folders on my system configuration and it start successful. I do not see different between these applications.
      Also, I have success result when I use h:selectOneMenu and ManyToOne association.
      Please, help me :(
