Pojo can't be injected to Converter class

[fjkjava.febinjk.gmail.com]

Hi All

I am trying to create a create a Converter class for my SelectOneMenu. I created DbUtil calss for all database access. But I can't inject the DbUtil to my Converter class. Can anybody help me to solve this.

Here is the sample code


@Name("dBUtil")
public class DBUtil {
     
     @In
     EntityManager entityManager;
     
     @Logger
     Log log;
     
     public Location findLocationById(String locationId)
     {
          return entityManager.find(Location.class,Integer.valueOf(locationId));
     }
}


@Name("locationConverter")
@Converter
@BypassInterceptors
public class LocationConverter implements javax.faces.convert.Converter {     
     
     @In(create=true)
     DBUtil dbUtil;
     
     public Object getAsObject(FacesContext context, UIComponent component, String value) {
          if(dbUtil==null)
               System.out.println("dbUtil==null");
          if((value!=null) && !value.toString().equals("--Select--"))
               return dbUtil.findLocationById(value);
          else
               return null;
     }

     public String getAsString(FacesContext context, UIComponent component, Object value) {          
          return value!=null && ! value.toString().equals("")  ? ((Location)value).toString() : null;          
     }

}

DI does not work with converters, as you have to
annotate the class with @BypassInterceptors and
Seam uses interceptors to perform dependency injection...

I also stumbled into this problem (see my post a few days ago)
