Hi All,
I've discovered a bug in the converter tags.
the release() method sets the _converterId to null.
The lifecycle goes like this;
1) new 2) setters, setPageContext, setParent 3) doStartTag, doEndTag etc 4) release
then loop through 2-4.
On Tomcat this works fine because tomcat creates a new instance of the tag each time (does all of 1-4 each time) however on WebLogic a pool of instances is created and reused (i.e. only 2-4 are redone each time).
So I have fixed the problem by placing
setConverterId(DateTimeConverter.CONVERTER_ID)
in the setPageContext method. The other option is to place the call to setConverterId into the createConverter method. Either way will work but I think the setPageContext method is 'more correct'.
I'll be checking it in later today if I don't hear any opinion either way.
TTFN,
