Need Help h:selectOneMenu
I have a dropdown list on UI:
CustodianAccountCreate.xhtml code:
<h:selectOneMenu value="#{custodianAccountHome.instance.bank}" style="width:110px" required="true" >
<s:selectItems value="#{allCustodians}" var="bankVar" label="#{bankVar.name}" noSelectionLabel="Please Select.."/>
</h:selectOneMenu>Here allCustodians
is variable from seam context as follows:
@SuppressWarnings("unchecked")
@Factory(value="allCustodians",scope=ScopeType.APPLICATION)
public List<Bank> getAllCustodians(){
Query q = getEntityManager().createQuery("select bank from Bank bank");
List<Bank> list = q.getResultList();
return list;

}
}
Entity Classes are CustodianAccount and Bank, One Bank can have many CustodianAccount as follows:
@Entity
@Audited
@NamedQueries( {
@NamedQuery(name = "CustodianAccount.findByBankName", query = "select c from CustodianAccount c where c.bank.name=:name"),
@NamedQuery(name = "CustodianAccount.findByAccountName", query = "select c from CustodianAccount c where c.name=:name"),
@NamedQuery(name = "CustodianAccount.findByPFNumber", query = "select c from CustodianAccount c where c.portfolio.portfolioNumber=:portfolioNumber")
})
@Table(uniqueConstraints = @UniqueConstraint(columnNames = {"portfolio", "bank", "primaryAccountNumber"}))
public class CustodianAccount extends AbstractServiceAccount {
/** Primary key id */
@Id
@SequenceGenerator(name = "CustodianAccount", sequenceName = "custodian_account_id")
@GeneratedValue(generator = "CustodianAccount")
private int id;
@ManyToOne(optional=false)
@ForeignKey(name = "FK_CA_bank")
private Bank bank;
@ManyToOne
@ForeignKey(name = "FK_CA_bankbranch")
private BankBranch branch;
@OneToOne
private ClientPortfolio portfolio;My aim is to create a new CustodianAccount using UI. On the UI user selects one Bank out of list of banks (h:selectOneMenu) and press save
.
I get following exception on click of save:
/portfolio/CustodianAccountCreate.xhtml @24,121 value="#{custodianAccountHome.instance.bank}": java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: argument type mismatch If I add s:convertEntity I get "value not valid"
<h:selectOneMenu value="#{custodianAccountHome.instance.bank}" style="width:110px" required="true" >
<s:convertEntity/>
<s:selectItems value="#{allCustodians}" var="bankVar" label="#{bankVar.name}" noSelectionLabel="Please Select.."/>
</h:selectOneMenu>I was able to do this functionnality by creating a int vatiable in CustodianAccountHome class and then getting the entity using entityManmager and saving it but this approach Doesn't seem to be very clean.
Awaiting advice on this.
