Name

UISelectMany

Synopsis

This class represents a select-many component. A select-many component lets the user select one or more items among a set of items represented by UISelectItem and UISelectItems components, which is then saved as a property of an application class after conversion and validation. If the component is bound to a property, the data type for the select items must be the same basic type (either a primitive type or the corresponding boxed type) as the property data type. The default rendererType is javax.faces.Listbox.

When the selections made by a user is different than the previous selection, the component fires a ValueChangeEvent, which can be handled by the application through a value changed event method or one or more listeners, in the order: javax.faces.event.ValueChangeListener instances (in the order they are registered), and then the value change listener method.
