    s:convertEntity Setup with selectManyCheckbox

    nimo22

      I wanna use a selectManyCheckbox..


      <h:selectManyCheckbox value="#{entityBean.choices}">
      <s:selectItems value="#{selectableList}" var="s" label="#{s.id}"/>
      <s:convertEntity/>
      </h:selectManyCheckbox>
      



      How do I use the convertEntity-Tag? I have the problem, that when the User clicks SAVE the Error


      EntityManager is closed



      occurs. I also configured it in components.xml:


      <component name="org.jboss.seam.ui.EntityConverter">
      <property name="session">#{hibernateSession}</property>
      </component>



      Have I anything missed ?


      How can I 'open' the EntityManager while transaction?


      Is there an example of an selectManyCheckbox with SEAM.

          I use also a Seam managed transaction..


          Before I tried to use this:


          <h:selectManyCheckbox value="#{entityBean.choices}">
          <s:selectItems value="#{selectableList}" var="s" label="#{s.description}" itemValue="#{s.id}"/>
          </h:selectManyCheckbox>
          



          but I refer to an entityBean and its property 'choices' is declared as follows


           private Set<Choices> choices = new HashSet<Choices>();
          



          So u see its a relationship to the EntityBean 'Choices'. So when I use the converEntity it should be cast to selectItems and give the selected Items as a Set..but this does not work. Why? How can I solve that?

            Have forgot to say that:


            When I use s:selectItems with s:convertEntity:


            <s:selectItems value="#{selectableList}" var="s" label="#{s.description}" itemValue="#{s.id}"/>
            <s:convertEntity/>
            



            then the Error:



            Not an entity class: java.lang.Integer



            occurs.


            The itemValue s.id is indeed a java.lang.Integer in my entityBean which I obtain from the list selectableList:


            @Factory("selectableList")
            public List <SelectItem> getSelectableList() {
            
            return entityManager.createQuery("from EntityBean s").getResultList();  }

              upss I use the latest SEAM 2.1 build and I cannot (must not) configure the entityConverter in applications.xml. However, the failures is the same..'EntityManager closed':-(

                I want to use s:convertEntity and my setup is right. I set it up in components.xml:



                     <component name="org.jboss.seam.ui.EntityConverter">
                       <property name="entityManager">#{entityManager}</property>
                     </component>



                and injected it with entityManager.


                But I get the following problem:
