使用List时的NumberFormatException <CustomObject> 在数据表中

Question

I am encountering a NumberFormatException when trying to display a List in a datatable. I know the general reason why this exception occurs, but not able to figure out where it applies in my situation.

Here is my ice:datatable display code

<ice:dataTable id="transformations" var="transformationList" width="700"
value="#{ShowStatusBean.transformationStatusList}" rows="10"    
partialTriggers="refreshButton"  autoSubmit="true">

<ice:column>
<ice:outputText value="#{transformationList.businessDate}" />
</ice:column>

<ice:column>
<ice:outputText value="#{transformationList.service}" />
</ice:column>

<ice:column>
<ice:outputText value="#{transformationList.status}" />
</ice:column>

</ice:dataTable>

And my backing bean code

public List<TransformationBean> getTransformationStatusList() {
    transformationStatusList = new ArrayList<TransformationBean>();
    transformationStatusList.add(new TransformationBean("2012-01-01", "serviceName", "status1"));
    transformationStatusList.add(new TransformationBean("2012-01-02", "serviceName2", "status2"));
    return transformationStatusList;
}

And finally the stack trace

And my TransformationBean

public class TransformationBean{

    private String businessDate;
    private String service;
    private String status;

    // constructor 
    // getter and setters
    }

I researched on this issue and found many responses. But it does look like I am not doing any of those mistakes.. so not sure what I'm missing. These are the other links that I found about the same issue.

Number format exception when returning values from database(JPA)

NumberFormatException for input String

http://jforum.icesoft.org/JForum/posts/list/16645.page

All of these mention that the List<> being returned from the java code is a List of Object[] which is why the its trying to get to the array entry by treating the property as an index attribute.. However , from my code, its clear that I am not returned a List of Object[] , but a properly defined List

I have also tested the java code in a JUNit Test case and verified that the return type is a List of TransformationBean objects.

What am I not doing correctly, folks ?

Answer 1

I was able to fix the problem. Not sure what the issue was though. I just created a new file containing my xhtml displaycode with the same set of information. Only thing i changed was to change the var name to bean like so..

    <ice:dataTable id="transformations" var="bean" width="700"
value="#{ShowStatusBean.transformationStatusList}" rows="10"    
partialTriggers="refreshButton"  autoSubmit="true">

<ice:column>
<ice:outputText value="#{bean.businessDate}" />
</ice:column>

<ice:column>
<ice:outputText value="#{bean.service}" />
</ice:column>

<ice:column>
<ice:outputText value="#{bean.status}" />
</ice:column>

</ice:dataTable>`

And it started working.. Doesn't make sense.. Maybe the app server was caching some previous version that was incorrect.. But looks like my code was right all along..
