Hi All, I wanted to decorate the default converter that comes along with HtmlCalendarRenderer class for <t:inputCalendar> component.
I was able to actual processing of converting string to Object to the HtmlCalendarRenderer class using the following code: Method: getAsObject() UIInput inputComponent = (UIInput)component; inputComponent.setConverter(null); String rendererType = inputComponent.getRendererType(); Renderer renderer = facesContext.getRenderKit().getRenderer(inputComponent.getFamily(), rendererType); Object convertedValue = renderer.getConvertedValue(facesContext, component, value); The converter in question is a generic converter and applies to any UIInput component. The problem is with getAsString method. The component nor its renderer does not expose any method through which I can delegate the conversion to String to the actual getAsString class. What I was looking for was access to the default converter for any component if none have been specified, but did not find a way to get hold of it. Is there any way around if I need to have a generic converter for all UIInput type components to act as a decorator?
