hi Peter Muir,
i tried to use your selectitems-1.1.1beta2, but i got an error like this :

avax.faces.el.PropertyNotFoundException: javax.el.PropertyNotFoundException: /home.xhtml @23,117 label="#{application.remark}": Property 'remark' not found on type org.apache.catalina.core.ApplicationContextFacade
 at javax.faces.component.ValueBindingValueExpressionAdapter.getValue(ValueBindingValueExpressionAdapter.java:104)

/code]

but remark into my bean exist, here is my example :
1.components.xml


 <framework:entity-home name="applicationHome"
 entity-class="com.liliko.billing.businesslayer.beans.entity.jits.Application" />
 <factory name="application" value="#{applicationHome.instance}" />
 <framework:entity-query name="applications" ejbql="select a from Application a"/>



2.Application Bean:


@Entity
@Table(name = "APPLICATION",schema="JITS")

public class Application implements Serializable {

 @Id
 @Column(name = "ID", nullable = false)
 private BigDecimal id;

 @Column(name = "CODE")
 private BigInteger code;

 @Column(name = "REMARK")
 private String remark;

 @Column(name = "REC_STATUS")
 private BigInteger recStatus;

 @Column(name = "REG_DATE")
 @Temporal(TemporalType.DATE)
 private Date regDate;

 @Column(name = "UPD_DATE")
 @Temporal(TemporalType.DATE)
 private Date updDate;

 @JoinColumn(name = "DESCRIPTION_ID", referencedColumnName = "ID")
 @ManyToOne
 private Description descriptionId;

 @JoinColumn(name = "USER_ID", referencedColumnName = "ID")
 @ManyToOne
 private Users userId;

 @OneToMany(mappedBy = "applicationId")
 private Collection<ApplicationsConfig> applicationsConfigCollection;

 /** Creates a new instance of Application */
 public Application() {
 }

 public Application(BigDecimal id) {
 this.id = id;
 }
 public BigDecimal getId() {
 return this.id;
 }
 public void setId(BigDecimal id) {
 this.id = id;
 }
 public BigInteger getCode() {
 return this.code;
 }
 public void setCode(BigInteger code) {
 this.code = code;
 }
 public String getRemark() {
 return this.remark;
 }
 public void setRemark(String remark) {
 this.remark = remark;
 }

 public BigInteger getRecStatus() {
 return this.recStatus;
 }

 public void setRecStatus(BigInteger recStatus) {
 this.recStatus = recStatus;
 }
 public Date getRegDate() {
 return this.regDate;
 }
 public void setRegDate(Date regDate) {
 this.regDate = regDate;
 }
 public Date getUpdDate() {
 return this.updDate;
 }
 public void setUpdDate(Date updDate) {
 this.updDate = updDate;
 }
 public Description getDescriptionId() {
 return this.descriptionId;
 }
 public void setDescriptionId(Description descriptionId) {
 this.descriptionId = descriptionId;
 }
 public Users getUserId() {
 return this.userId;
 }
 public void setUserId(Users userId) {
 this.userId = userId;
 }
 public Collection<ApplicationsConfig> getApplicationsConfigCollection() {
 return this.applicationsConfigCollection;
 }
 public void setApplicationsConfigCollection(Collection<ApplicationsConfig> applicationsConfigCollection) {
 this.applicationsConfigCollection = applicationsConfigCollection;
 }
 @Override
 public int hashCode() {
 int hash = 0;
 hash += (this.id != null ? this.id.hashCode() : 0);
 return hash;
 }
 @Override
 public boolean equals(Object object) {
 // TODO: Warning - this method won't work in the case the id fields are not set
 if (!(object instanceof Application)) {
 return false;
 }
 Application other = (Application)object;
 if (this.id != other.id && (this.id == null || !this.id.equals(other.id))) return false;
 return true;
 }
 @Override
 public String toString() {
 return "tmp.Application[id=" + id + "]";
 }

}


3. and view.xhtml :

<h:selectOneMenu>
 <s:selectItems value="#{applications.resultList}" var="application" label="#{application.remark}" />
 <si:convertEntity entityClass="com.liliko.billing.businesslayer.beans.entity.jits.Application"/>
 </h:selectOneMenu>



did i something incorrect ????
