ConvertEntity on Search
I posted this once before a few weeks ago and made a couple of mistakes when I posted. Sorry about the previous errors. Hopefuly, someone has a solution to this.
I upgraded my seam to version jboss-seam-2.1.0-SNAPSHOT taken on 10/13/08.
I have designed my search/listing similar to that described in the Seam in Action
book. This particular has multiple convertEntity and a single convertEnum. When I apply the convertEntity and convertEnum to my EditionEdit.xhtml, everything works fine. However, when used in the EditionList.xhtml, the convertEnum works, but the convertEntity keeps giving me the following error:

It seems that the error is thrown on the medium param.
If I make changes to pass the id rather than the entity, there is not any error, but the SQL does not use the restriction.

My questions are:
1. Am I missing something in my code to get the convertEntity to work?
2. The getRestrictions method was changed to use getRestrictionExpressionStrings method. If I were to pass the id, how do I add this to my restriction list? Before I updated seam, the getRestrictions was being called every time I pressed the search button, but with the getRestrictionExpressionStrings method, it is not being called each time. This leads me to believe either something else changed, I am using the wrong method to add more restrictions or I am not using the param correctly.
3. If neither convertEntity nor passing the id is the proper way, then what would work?
Any and all comments would be appreciated. I am sure someone out there has encountered this problem and has a solution.
