copied!<p>You'd need to provide the whole <code>Language</code> objects as both the available items and the selected items. You also need to create a <code>Converter</code> which converts between the <code>Language</code> object and <code>String</code>, this is mandatory because HTML output and HTTP request parameters are one and all <code>String</code>.</p> <p>Assuming that your <code>Language</code> object has two properties <code>code</code> and <code>name</code> and that you've an application scoped bean which look like this:</p> <pre><code>@ManagedBean @ApplicationScoped public class Data { private List<Language> languages; @PostConstruct public void init() { languages= new ArrayList<Language>(); languages.add(new Language("en", "English")); languages.add(new Language("hi", "Hindi")); languages.add(new Language("te", "Telugu")); // ... } public List<Language> getLanguages() { return languages; } } </code></pre> <p>Then you can use it as follows:</p> <pre><code><h:selectManyCheckbox value="#{bean.selectedLanguages}" converter="languageConverter"> <f:selectItems value="#{data.languages}" var="language" itemValue="#{language}" itemLabel="#{language.name}" /> </h:selectManyCheckbox> </code></pre> <p>with this bean</p> <pre><code>@ManagedBean @ViewScoped public class Bean { private List<Language> selectedLanguages; // ... } </code></pre> <p>and this converter</p> <pre><code>@FacesConverter("languageConverter") public class LanguageConverter implements Converter { @Override public String getAsString(FacesContext context, UIComponent component, Object object) { return ((Language) object).getCode(); } @Override public Object getAsObject(FacesContext context, UIComponent component, String submittedValue) { List<Language> languages = (List<Language>) context.getApplication().evaluateExpressionGet(context.getELContext(), "#{data.languages}", List.class); for (Language language : languages) { if (language.getCode().equals(submittedValue)) { return language; } } return null; } } </code></pre>
