How to get both label and value from f:selectItems

Question

I am working on a JSF page which has a dropdown based on List:

    <         


        

Answer 1

Instead of Using Map I tried like this and it's perfectly working for me to get both ItemValue and ItemLabel in the same property by using "ItemValue" attribute in selectItems tag.How ever provided no extra commas in the ItemLabel(@asfas....i had the same problem u mentioned so i selected this approach).

Basically IssueDesc is String type in Bean Company

    public Class Company{

      private String issueDesc;    // getters and setters
      private int code;  // getters and setters
      private ListissueList; // getters and setters.


         public void getLblandVal(){

           String desc=getIssueDesc();
           String[] str_ary=desc.split(",");
           String s1=str_ary[0];
           String s2=str_ary[1];
          // parse **s1** to int;
    }


}
