Refresh af:selectOneChoice in backed bean (JDev 10.1.3.5)

Question

I have jspx with af:selectOneChoice named Status. When user changes value of selectOneChoice from IN_WORK to COMPLETED, I check business rules.
If some rules are violated, I show error messages and I want to set value of af:selectOneChoice back to IN_WORK.
But with my code this doesn't occur - value of selectOneChoice stay with value COMPLETED :
Here is definition of selectOneChoice. I set id="Status" and partialTriggers="Status" for PPR to work:
<af:selectOneChoice value="#{bindings.HgpPorocilaView1Status.inputValue}"
label="Status"
valueChangeListener="#{UrejanjePorocilaBacked.onValueChangeStatus}"
autoSubmit="true" id="Status"
partialTriggers="Status" immediate="true"
valuePassThru="false">
<f:selectItems value="#{bindings.HgpPorocilaView1Status.items}"/>
Here is UrejanjePorocilaBacked.onValueChangeStatus:
public void onValueChangeStatus(ValueChangeEvent valueChangeEvent) {
// Add event code here...
DCBindingContainer dcBindings = (DCBindingContainer)getBindings();
DCIteratorBinding iter = dcBindings.findIteratorBinding("HgpPorocilaView1Iterator");
Row row = iter.getCurrentRow();
//If new value of Status is COMPLETED
if (row.getAttribute("Status") == "COMPLETED" {
//Check rules
if (row.getAttribute("OneField").toString() == "WRONGVALUE")
//If rules are violated, display error message
FacesMessage message = new FacesMessage(FacesMessage.SEVERITY_ERROR, "Business rules violation!", "Rule1 message, Rule2 message, ... ");
FacesContext.getCurrentInstance().addMessage(null, message); // Null for global message
//Set Status af:selectOneChoice back to IN_WORK
row.setAttribute("Status","IN_WORK");
So - the problem is that Status doesn't change back to IN_WORK. I have similar principle for af:inputText in same backed bean and it works OK.
I have Jdev 10.1.3.5
Please some suggestions, what is wrong.

Hi,
The ValueChange Listener will not stop it from setting the submited value in the viewRow.
You should try a different approach of the matter.
You should use a validation method in you entity. Or perhaps place custom code in the setter of the attribute in you ViewRowImpl.
