problems creating drop down menu using selectOneMenu

[soniya]

Hello,

I am new to seam. I've been trying to create a drop down menu in order to choose an entity "tipus" which is a foreign key of another entity "SLA".

After consulting so many forums and tutorials I've been able to code it but the problem is that I'm not getting any "tipus" to choose from in the dropdown list.

It just says "Select a Tipus".

Can anyone please tell me where is the problem.

A part of my SlaEdit.xhtml:

My TipusActionBean.java

@Stateful

@Name("tipusAction")

public class TipusActionBean implements tipusAction, Serializable{

  /**

     *

     */

    @In(create = true)

    private TipusList tipuList;

    TipusHome tipusHome;

    @PersistenceContext(type = PersistenceContextType.EXTENDED)

    EntityManager entityManager;

    @Logger private Log log;

    @DataModel

    private List<Tipus> tipusToTrack = new ArrayList<Tipus>();

    @Out(required = false)

    @In(required = false)

    private Tipus selectedTipus = new Tipus();

    @Factory("tipusToTrack")

    public List<Tipus> initTipusToTrack() {

    tipusToTrack =entityManager.createQuery("select t from Tipus t order by t.idTipus").getResultList();

          System.out.println("initTipusToTrack");

          return tipusToTrack;

    }

    public Tipus getSelectedTipus() {

            log.info(">>>>> get selectedTipus");

            if (this.selectedTipus != null) {

                    log.info(">>>>> get getSelectedProfil selectedTipus = "

                                    + this.selectedTipus.getIdTipus());

            }

            return this.selectedTipus;

    }

    public void setSelectedProfil(Tipus tipus) {

            this.selectedTipus = tipus;

    }

    public void test() {

    tipusHome.setTipusIdTipus(selectedTipus.getIdTipus());

            System.out.println("test");

            System.out.println(selectedTipus == null ? "null" : selectedTipus.getIdTipus());

    }

    @Remove

    public void remove() {

    }

}

And my SlaEdit.page.xml
