-------------------------------------
this was fixed in trunk, it will be available in 2.1.7
> <s:select> converts the "listKey" to String before comparing to the Object in
> "value"

> Key: WW-3140
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/struts/browse/WW-3140
> Project: Struts 2
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: Plugin - Tags
> Affects Versions: 2.0.6
> Environment: Jetty, all OS'es
> Reporter: Jaron Schut
>
> Trying to get a populated and preselected select tag to work. Well, countries
> is a list of country objects and country is a singular object of the
> preselected country. Data comes from hibernate so are identified by Long
> objects:
> <s:select list="countries" name="countryId" listKey="id"
> listValue="displayLabel" value="country.id" />
> Now the preselecting does not work because the tag converts the listKey,
> which is a Long object to a string before calling the equals method on the
> Long object in the value. So a Long object and a String object are never
> equal.
> Changing the tag to:
> <s:select list="countries" name="countryId" listKey="id"
> listValue="displayLabel" value="%{country.id}" />
> Still does not correctly preselect the value because struts2 call
> Long.toString() 2 separate times and then compares the result by reference.
> Which obviously is String != String.
> Conclusion: <s:select> tag is not able to correctly compare 2 objects that
> are the same nor correctly compare a single object because it creates 2 new
> strings that apparently are not compared by value but only by reference?
> PS: changing the tag to:
> <s:select list="countries" name="countryCode" listKey="countryCode"
> listValue="displayLabel" value="country.countryCode" />
> Did work correctly. Since the list of countries and the singular country all
> come from hibernate. The tag ends up comparing 2 exactly the same
> languageCode Strings (Same instance) correctly.
