EntityConverter with patch for seam 1.2.0

[vlaugier]

Hello,

we have been strugling all day trying to make the patch for EntityConverter work

for seam_EAP 4.2 with integrated seam 1.2.0

we have followed
http://wiki.jboss.org/wiki/Wiki.jsp?page=SeamEntityConverter

but it doesn't work and we are short of ideas now

we get the following error in french
sourceId=createService:radioService[severity=(ERROR 2), summary=(la valeur nest pas valide), detail=(la valeur nest pas valide)]

which I translate as

sourceId=createService:radioService[severity=(ERROR 2), summary=(value is not valid), detail=(value is not valid)]

I put as attachment our code for the web page and the manager (bean + interface)

I know the support is not meant for debugging our code, but in that case I dare to ask since this is a basic functionnality of seam that we expect to work


the web page code

the manager bean

 @PersistenceContext(type=PersistenceContextType.EXTENDED)
 private EntityManager entityManager;


 @In (required=false)
 private Service selectedService;

 public Service getSelectedService() {
 return selectedService;
 }

 public void setSelectedService(Service selectedService) {
 this.selectedService = selectedService;
 }



 private List<Service> services;
 
 public void createService()
 {
 //implement your business logic here
 //log.info("createService.createService() action called with: #{createService.name}");
 //facesMessages.add("createService #{createService.name}");


 System.out.println("enregistrement du produit");

 if (this.selectedService != null) this.service.setParentService(selectedService);

 entityManager.persist(service);
 this.services.add(service);
 this.service = null;
 }

 //add additional action methods
 @Create
 public void find() {

 this.services = entityManager.createQuery("select c from Service c").getResultList();
 }


 public Service getService() {
 return service;
 }

 public void setService(Service service) {
 this.service = service;
 }

 public List<Service> getServices() {
 return services;
 }

 public void setServices(List<Service> services) {
 this.services = services;
 }



 @Destroy @Remove
 public void destroy() {}

}

hope someone had this problem already

patching old version is such a pain, arghhh !!

Make sure you are in a long running conversation or override the equals method

[vlaugier]

thanks for your help pete

this is a single page conversation and we use a statefull, isn't it sufficient ?

I do not understand understand need for overriding the equals method and where ?

does it have something to do with this line :

if (this.selectedService != null) this.service.setParentService(selectedService);
