FacesConverter not working with mojarra 2.1.0-b09, 2.1.1-b02?

---

With this maven dependency, it works :

    <dependency>
        <groupId>com.sun.faces</groupId>
        <artifactId>jsf-api</artifactId>
        <version>2.0.4-b09</version>
        <scope>compile</scope>
    </dependency>
    <dependency>
        <groupId>com.sun.faces</groupId>
        <artifactId>jsf-impl</artifactId>
        <version>2.0.4-b09</version>
        <scope>compile</scope>
    </dependency>

But with this, it's not working :

    <dependency>
        <groupId>com.sun.faces</groupId>
        <artifactId>jsf-api</artifactId>
        <!--  or even this : <version>2.1.0-b09</version> -->
        <version>2.1.1-b02</version>
        <scope>compile</scope>
    </dependency>
    <dependency>
        <groupId>com.sun.faces</groupId>
        <artifactId>jsf-impl</artifactId>
        <!--  or even this : <version>2.1.0-b09</version> -->
        <version>2.1.1-b02</version>
        <scope>compile</scope>
    </dependency>

with the exception of

SEVERE: Servlet.service() for servlet 开发者_开发知识库[Faces Servlet] in context with path [/primebert] threw exception [Expression Error:

And here's my simple converter class :

import javax.faces.component.UIComponent;
import javax.faces.context.FacesContext;
import javax.faces.convert.Converter;
import javax.faces.convert.FacesConverter;

@FacesConverter("heroConverter")
public class HeroBeanConverter implements Converter {

    public Object getAsObject(FacesContext context, UIComponent ui, String newValue) {
        System.out.println("getting as object");
        HeroBean hero = HeroBean.findHeroBeanByName(newValue);
        System.out.println("found hero : " + hero);
        return hero;
    }

    public String getAsString(FacesContext context, UIComponent component,
            Object value) {
        System.out.println("getting as string for value " + value);
        if (value == null) return "";
        return ((HeroBean) value).getName();
    }
}

Is it a bug, or im at a mistake here ? :-D

It's a bug. It's related to issue 1937. This bug causes that JSF annotations aren't been scanned on non-Glassfish containers, because they accidently included some Glassfish-specific annotation scanning code.

The 2.1.1-b02 is also a development build. Rather use the stable builds. The latest stable is 2.0.4-b09.
