JSF DataTable displaying objects instead of real values from MySqlDB table UserGroup

Can someone please help me in resolving this. I am trying to create a page for Display, Edit and delete data from UserGroup (a MySQL DB table) with below structure in a JSF2.0 (xhtml page) . The problem I'm having is with the data actually getting displayed as objects of UserGroup table instead of the readable values from these columns. I tried out various sample solutions available for CRUD web application but not getting anywhere, sure i am missing the overall understanding of displaying and then editing the row data. However my create works fine. Do I need to write converters for displaying correct value?

Additional info

Glassfish v3.1.2
JPA/Eclipselink v2.1

JSF2.0
Eclipse Juno SR2

UserGroup Table

rowId (Auto Generated)
groupId (foreign key for Group Id in Group table)
username (foreign key for Username in User table)

Output I'm getting right now

Users's and their group.
Row Id    Group Id              Username 
9         model.Group@647d73bf  model.User@683a3423  
13        model.Group@2192bac5  model.User@2823ecbb

Solution

You are passing the userGroup's group and user objects to the JSF, not values. You probably want to pass item.group.id and item.user.id or their equivalents.
