Select items doesn't use converter to generate label.

[Tomas Sikula]

Hello.

I have problem with using select items with custom converter.

I have one JSF managed bean (getters + setters not shown):

public class PersonBean {
  List<Person> firends;
  List<SelectItems> allPeoples; // each SelectItem created with instance of Perosn
}

.

Person class:

package x.y;
public class Person {
   String getName();
}

.

In faces-config.xml I registered my custom converter PersonConverter:

<converter>
  <conver-class>x.y.PersonConverter</converter-class>
  <converter-for-class>x.y.Person</converter-for-class>
</converter>

.

And finally in page.jsp I have:

<h:selectManyCheckbox value="#{personBean.friends}">
   <f:selectItems value="#{personBean.allPeoples}"/>
</h:selectManyCheckbox>

.

However on page, labels for checkboxes are apparently obtained via Person.toString, eg.: x.y.Person@1088abb1.

What I'm doing wrong?

Thanks for help.
