Converter problem with 1.1.1

[AdamChesney]

I have updated my Roo to 1.1.1 and then followed the instructions here:

http://www.springsource.org/roo/guide?w=upgrade

regarding converters.

My drop downs are correctly dealing with Organisation using my new ApplicationConversionServiceFactoryBean, however, when I visit a Roo "Show" page I get this new exception:

It seems as though the GenericConversionService used by the EL evaluator might not be picking up my custom converters.

Any ideas? Is this a bug or am I doing something wrong?

[AdamChesney]

Erm... Gangadhar... That's not the same problem!

[Rossen Stoyanchev]

Adam, can you post the content of your webmvc-config.xml, ApplicationConversionServiceFactoryBean.java, and ApplicationConversionServiceFactoryBean_Roo_Conver sionService.aj surrounded with [CODE] tags?

[AdamChesney]

I update the Jira issue with the resources you asked for... thanks.
