<h:selectOneListBox> & <s:convertDateTime>

[pdepaepe]

Hello,

I have to offer 3 dynamic dates on a selectOneListbox.

This code:

<h:selectOneListbox id="start" value="#{sV.start}" styleClass="sessionInput">
 <s:convertDateTime pattern="MM/dd/yyyy"/>
 <f:selectItems value="#{sV.availableStarts}" />
</h:selectOneListbox>

Render:

<select id="starting:start" name="starting:start" size="3" class="sessionInput">
 <option value="07/25/2007">Wed Jul 25 09:00:31 CEST 2007</option>
 <option value="07/26/2007">Thu Jul 26 09:00:31 CEST 2007</option>
 <option value="07/27/2007">Fri Jul 27 09:00:31 CEST 2007</option>
</select>

So we can see that the pattern of selectItems is correctly set on value. But when i try to validate my form, <h:message/> return that the data is not a correct option.
Which is strange as this code works :

<h:inputText id="start" value="#{sV.start}" required="true" styleClass="sessionInput">
 <s:convertDateTime pattern="MM/dd/yyyy"/>
 <a:support event="onblur" reRender="startDecorate"/>
</h:inputText>
<s:selectDate for="start">
 <h:graphicImage url="img/dtpick.gif" style="margin-left:5px"/>
</s:selectDate>

Any idea about this?

I become quite crasy about this issue.

My Entity:

@Basic @Future @Temporal(TemporalType.TIMESTAMP)
public Date getStart()
{
return start;
}

public void setStart(Date start)
{
this.start = start;
}

The way i test my select list:

@Transient
public ArrayList<SelectItem> getAvailableStarts(){
ArrayList<SelectItem> si = new ArrayList<SelectItem>();
for(int i = 0; i < 3; i++){
Date d = new Date()
si.add(new SelectItem(d, df.format(d)));
}
return si;
}

Xhtml :

<h:selectOneListbox value="#{sV.start}">
<s:convertDateTime pattern="MM/dd/yyyy"/>
<f:selectItems value="#{sV.availableStarts}" />
</h:selectOneListbox>

Return the three present dates. If i submit the @Future returns well that my date have to be in the future. If i remove the annotation, it returns that the option is not valid.
Any idea please?
