My Custom Converter Doesn't Work With DataModel

Question

Hi,
I have this simple object with its custom converter taken from the Core JSF Book. It works fine, but when I put it in DataModel, somehow it didn't get updated. I don't put the whole codes here, only the important parts.
Any1 knows what is the reason? I have been looking for an answer but I haven't found one. Plz help.
public class CreditCard {
private String number;
public CreditCard(String number) { this.number = number; }
public String toString() { return number; }
public class CreditCardConverter implements Converter, Serializable {
private String separator;
public void setSeparator(String newValue) { separator = newValue; }
public Object getAsObject(............);
return new CreditCard(builder.toString());
public String getAsString(..............)
throws ConverterException {
return result.toString();
public class MyBackBean{
private DataModel creditCardDataModel;
private static final CreditCard[] ccs = {
new CreditCard("1111 111 111 111"),
new CreditCard("2222 222 222 222")
public DataModel getCards(){
if (creditCardDataModel == null) {
creditCardDataModel = new ArrayDataModel(ccs);
return creditCardDataModel;
<h:dataTable value="#{myBackBean.cards}" var="card">
<h:column>
<h:inputText id="card" value="#{card}"/>
</h:column>
</h:dataTable>
