Hello, thanks a lot for the clarification. Could you please specify what should be done for that in case of TomCat 9?

Hello,
I found on stackoverflow exactly the my problem: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/57552085/custom-converter-with-attributes-injection-not-working-with-anymore-after-upgrad
Where to put "managed=true " to make it works? But with "managed=true" injection for instance no longer works

Tim Holloway wrote:"managed=true" indicates that CDI should be used instead of legacy injection.

Have you tried injecting @ManagedProperty's into the converter: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/8675831/inject-managed-bean-property-into-custom-converter ?

Hello, unfortunately it's not acceptable for be because I need to pass current values of the #{item.name} to the converter. Bean can't help me in that case

Tim Holloway wrote:You're probably right. Have you checked by hard-coding the EL values just to be sure?

I'm thinking that the context of a converter bean makes EL impossible to use. Basically, you're looking at a single object instance (referenced by name) that is designed to be shared not only within a webapp user, but potentially between multiple webapp users concurrently. So the property injections would have to be done at construction time and not change thereafter.

People have had similar problems with the "id=" JSF attribute. They think that everything can be EL, and that's not 100% true.

It looks like it's required to put “managed=true” somewhere

Hello, the actual tag definition is:
 <tag>    <tag-name>myConverter</tag-name>    <converter>      <converter-id>myConverter</converter-id>    </converter>    <attribute>      <name>beanName</name>    </attribute>    <attribute>      <name>myName</name>      <type>java.lang.String</type>      <required>true</required>    </attribute>    <attribute>      <name>limitation</name>      <type>java.lang.String</type>      <required>true</required>    </attribute>    <attribute>      <name>valid</name>      <type>java.lang.String</type>      <required>true</required>    </attribute>  </tag>


The problem with the code
<myConverter  beanName="myBean"  myName="#{item.Name}"  limitation="#{item.limitation}"  valid="#{item.valid}" />

is that only the hardcoded value "beanName" is transferred to the converter's code but all values that using EL don't transfer from JSF 2.3. Is any way to fix that?

Hello, this is custom tag defined by user and this is xhtml file

Hello, thanks a lot for your response

I use Tomcat 9.0.

I use the following tag for converter:
<myConverter  beanName="myBean"  myName="#{item.Name}"  limitation="#{item.limitation}"  valid="#{item.valid}" />

and my converter inhered from Converter<Object>

The problem is that limitation doesn't pass to the converter class. And I don't use "managed=true"

Hello,

I use in my code JSF 1.9 and custom converter with arguments.
Now I update JSF to 2.3 (jakarta.faces-2.3.14.jar) and found that custom converters stop working because converter arguments (constraints) are not passed to the converter. I found that I need to use "managed=true" but in this case injection stops working. Is any way to make custom converters works in JSF 2.3?
