Description

The EnumConverter can't get the Enum-Class if the Enum is public enum xyz

{..}

and not an anonymous inner enum.

Background:
http://bugs.sun.com/view_bug.do?bug_id=6708424

Issue:
In line 71 of EnumConverter '} else if (value.getClass().isEnum()) {' only works with anonymous inner classes. Otherwise it is false and
'javax.faces.convert.ConverterException: No target class selected.' is thrown.

possible solution:
change 'getClass()' to 'getDeclaringClass()'. This works with public enums but must be checked for anonymous inner classes.
