            Use a list/array that consists of SelectItem objects.

            For Example:
                    cityList = new ArrayList<SelectItem>();
                    cityList.add(new SelectItem("TORONTO", "TORONTO"));
                    cityList.add(new SelectItem("CALGARY", "CALGARY"));
            Show
            Use a list/array that consists of SelectItem objects. For Example:         cityList = new ArrayList<SelectItem>();         cityList.add(new SelectItem("TORONTO", "TORONTO"));         cityList.add(new SelectItem("CALGARY", "CALGARY"));

            Description

            With the JSF <h:selectOneMenu> component, you can use an array of objects for the selectOneMenu options. Using the same set of objects for an <ice:selectOneMenu> does not show the options. For example:

            JSF Component Code:
            <h:selectOneMenu value="#{backingBean.city}" >
                 <f:selectItems value="#{backingBean.cities}"/>
            </h:selectOneMenu>

            Backing Bean Code:
            public City[] getCities() {
                    return City.values();
            }

            Testing with ICEfaces 1.8.x and JSF 1.2 showed that the array of objects does not work for both the JSF and ICEfaces components. It looks like something was changed on the JSF component and this has not been changed with the ICEfaces components.

                The following example still does not work:

                <ice:selectOneMenu value="#

                {testBean.itemCode}

                ">
                <f:selectItems value="#

                {testBean.itemList}

                " var="item" itemValue="#

                {item.code}

                " itemLabel="#

                {item.name}

                "/>
                </ice:selectOneMenu>

                Where:
                itemCode is an Integer
                itemList is a List<Item>
                item.code is an Integer
                item.nam is a String

                When running this example, ICEFaces seems to try to assign item.toString() to itemCode which results in a conversion error.
                h:selectOneMenu works as expected.

                I have tested ICE-6107 with enum and its working fine.

                <ice:selectOneMenu partialSubmit="true" value="#

                {selectionTags.city}">
                <f:selectItems
                value="#{selectionTags.cities}"/>
                </ice:selectOneMenu>

                <h:outputText value="Selected City : #{selectionTags.city}

                " />

                I just realized that the ICEfaces selectOneMenu behaves differently when the items are in a List than when they are in an array. In the attached example I try to demonstrate what I have found out. I hope this helps you figure out the problem.
