Catch-22 with Seam2 and converterId in page parameter - bug?
Im having a kind of catch-22 problem since upgrading to Seam 2.
I have date/time fields on xhtml form, and corresponding Seam page parameter in .page.xml file. If I don't assign converterId to date/time page param then
it throws error (javax.el.ELException: java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: argument type mismatch) and Seam Debug page..
However, if I give page parameter a convertId then xhtml page works but I get error in log (...Cannot instantiate converter of type org.jboss.seam.ui.converter.DateTimeConverter...).
I have jboss-seam-ui.jar in my .war\WEB-INF\lib folder. jboss-seam-ui.jar contains class org.jboss.seam.ui.converter.DateTimeConverter.
I think solution to my problem is to have a converterId - can anyone tell how to get rid of error (JSF1006: Cannot instantiate converter of type...)?
Seam2+JSF RI+Facelets+Richfaces, JBoss EAP 4.2.
without converterId in page param of .page.xml

(Similar error is thrown is I use converterId="javax.faces.convert.DateTimeConverter").
