Hi,
are you sure that the converter`s getAsObject() is not invoked? Step
in with a debugger and see what happens.
Also try to give the suggestPerson a default person object. I can not
see any problems why the converter should not be invoked after the
post-back.
cheers,
Gerald

Ok i think i was wrong. Not the value String is empty but the
getAsObject()-method is NEVER be invoked!
When dropping down the list by clicking on the down-arrow-button the following
data will be transmitted (I found this out with an http-debugger;):
[["Albert Einstein","1"],["Steven Hawking","2"],]
So, this should be ok...
...but then i found out tha this converter-method will never be invoked:
public Object getAsObject(FacesContext context, UIComponent component, String
value) throws ConverterException {
context.getExternalContext().log("In getAsObject!");
....
I found NO "In getAsObject!" in the log files (But logging works perfect)!
Any ideas?
Also have a look at the requests and response:
First the request when clicking on the down-arrow-button to retrieve the
suggest list:
-------------------------------------------
