    How to uses DateTimeConverter in .page.xml parameter?

    terryb

      I am in a process of upgrading to Seam 2GA; and getting this error I wasn't getting with Seam 1.2.1GA.

      I have date/time fields on xhtml form; for which I set default values in page action. I am getting attached errors which appears to be related to date value conversion when writing to bean props.

      I am not sure how to add converter to page paramter???

      convertjavax.faces.convert.DateTimeConverter

      .page.xml
      ...
       <param name="settlementDateFrom" value="#{paymentReconciliation.settlementDateFrom}"/>
       <param name="settlementDateTo" value="#{paymentReconciliation.settlementDateTo}"/>
      ...
      
      
      Error: If without converter in page parameter
      ...
