Thiago,
Once more, thanks for your (extremely) quick answer :)
Indeed, It was a lot easier following your advice!
In case it can help somebody, here is the final template :
<span id="${controlname}" class="monthdatafield">
<label for="${controlName}-month"
class="date-label">${monthLabel}</label>
<select id="${controlName}-month" name="${controlName}-month">
<t:loop source="monthModel" value="month">
<t:if test="selectedMonth">
<option selected="yes">${month}</option>
<p:else>
<option>${month}</option>
</p:else>
</t:if>
</t:loop>
</select>
<label for="${controlName}-year"
class="date-label">${yearLabel}</label>
<select id="${controlName}-year" name="${controlName}-year">
<t:loop source="yearModel" value="year">
<t:if test="selectedYear">
<option selected="yes">${year}</option>
<p:else>
<option>${year}</option>
</p:else>
</t:if>
</t:loop>
</select>
</span>
And the corresponding code in MonthDateField.java :
@Override
protected void processSubmission(String elementName) {
//Values retrieved
String month = request.getParameter(getControlName()+"-month");
String year = request.getParameter(getControlName()+"-year");
SimpleDateFormat sdf = new SimpleDateFormat("MM-yyyy");
String value = month+"-"+year;
//The value is stored in tracker
tracker.recordInput(this, value);
.....
}
public boolean isSelectedMonth(){
String input = tracker.getInput(this);
if ((input != null)&&(input.substring(0, 2).equals(month))) {
return true;
}
return false;
}
public boolean isSelectedYear(){
String input = tracker.getInput(this);
if ((input != null)&&(input.substring(3).equals(year))) {
return true;
}
return false;
}
Have a nice day !
Thomas CUCCHIETTI.
