Primefaces selectonemenu requiredmessage

Question

I am creating a selectonemenu using Primefaces and JSF. I want to appear a message saying "Choose one of the options". How can I do that?

This is the code:

  <!--Gender-->
           <p:selectOneMenu id="gender" value="#{users.gender}" required="true"
                               requiredMessage="Choose one of the options">
            <f:selectItem itemLabel="Choose gender" itemValue="#{null}" />
             <f:selectItem itemLabel="Male" itemValue="Male" />
            <f:selectItem itemLabel="Female" itemValue="Female" />
          </p:selectOneMenu>

Thanks

When do you need to display the message. When the form is submitted? — prageeth, Sep 15 '14 at 08:41
Please, better post your code here in the thread, instead of providing an external link to it. Having said that, which is the behaviour with your current code? Which PF version are you using? — Aritz, Sep 15 '14 at 09:17

As you requested, please find below block of codes that works fine for me  ::                                                                                                                                                                                                    

<h:form>
<p:panelGrid  style="margin-top:5px;width:730px;">
 <f:facet name="header">

                               requiredMessage="Please select a company !">
       <f:selectItem itemLabel="Select a Company" noSelectionOption="true" 
                                                 itemValue="#{null}" />
       <f:selectItems value="#{clientList.clients.entrySet()}" var="entry"  
                           itemValue="#{entry.key}" itemLabel="#{entry.value}" >
       </f:selectItems>
     </p:selectOneMenu>
   </p:column>

   <p:column>
     <p:commandButton value="Submit" style="margin:5px;" action="#
            {viewPayment.companyDetails(clientList.clientCode)}" ajax="false"/>

You can use :

if (users.getGender()==null) {
            FacesContext.getCurrentInstance().addMessage(
                    null,
                    new FacesMessage(FacesMessage.SEVERITY_ERROR,
                            "Choose one of the options",
                            "Choose one of the options"));
}
