Populating data in h:selectOneMenu from Database

[Ragavendran Srinivasan]

Hi Friends,

In my JSF program, I want to populate data from MS-Access database to <h:selectOneMenu> combobox. I created an ArrayList to return the data to combobox. But I am getting conversion error. Kindly help me on this issue. Please send me if you have any sample coding to acheive this one. Thanks in advance.

Is the value you are mapping in the backing bean a String?

  <h:selectOneMenu value= "#{myBean.choice}"....>  
           <f:selectItems..../>
        </h:selectOneMenu>

The choice property in myBean must be a String.
