Re: java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: Value is no String

Well the reason it doesn't work is because of the null.
Are you saying it was set to null the whole time, and only failed on the 3rd request (after having canceled the dialog once)?

Found a work around -->
if "value.typeText" is set to one of the values instead of null I
don't get the exception. What I don't understand is why it works the
other times but not the 3rd AJAX call.

I am getting a bit stuck on this one exception. I have two
selectOneRadio components within an included facelet (source file)
that bind to a property on a facelet attribute. The value is a custom
bean with string properties and the select items have string values,
so no converter should be needed. What is odd is that this behavior is
not constant.

Setup:
index.xhtml defines this component:
        <ost:liveReportFilterDialog
          id="liveReportFilterDlg"
          ajaxZone="reportListZone"
          rendered="#{liveReportBean.filterDialogVisible}"
          onAcceptListener="#{liveReportBean.filterDialogAccepted}"
          onCancelListener="#{liveReportBean.filterDialogCanceled}"
          value="#{liveReportBean.filter}" />

It is this "value" that I use within the "liveReportFilterDialog.xhtml":

  <t:selectOneRadio
    id="#{id}TypeOptions"
    value="#{value.typeText}"
    layout="pageDirection"
    required="true">
    <f:selectItem
      itemLabel="#{msg.liverep_filterdlg_typefilter_graph}"
      itemValue="osoft/livechart" />
    <f:selectItem
      itemLabel="#{msg.liverep_filterdlg_typefilter_report}"
      itemValue="osoft/livereport" />
    <f:selectItem
      itemLabel="#{msg.liverep_filterdlg_typefilter_schedule}"
      itemValue="osoft/liveschedule" />
  </t:selectOneRadio>

The other radio is:

  <t:selectOneRadio value="#{value.ownerStr}"
    layout="pageDirection">
    <f:selectItem itemLabel="#{msg.liverep_filterdlg_item_all}"
      itemValue="ALL" />
    <f:selectItem itemLabel="#{msg.liverep_filterdlg_item_owner}"
      itemValue="CURRENT_USER" />
  </t:selectOneRadio>


This dialog is usually not rendered, I change the value that the
rendered attribte points to in an AJAX call ActionListener method.
When I click the show, it works. Then, I click the cancel (close the
dialog), still okay, but when I try to open the dialog again (3rd AJAX
call) I get the following exception:
java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: Value is no String

The "ownerStr" is "ALL" and the "typeText" is null. I have been unable
to determine why it fails on this 3rd call and not 1 or 2. If I
refresh the page, the dialog is rendered & shown fine. I verified that
it isn't a problem with the message bundle (msg), as it still happens
if I hard code the itemLabel values.

I am on a 1.1.3 patched version of both Tomahawk and Core.

Any ideas? (also, I haven't yet found the RendererUtils$1 anonymous
class yet to find where it is coming from)

Thanks,
-Andrew
