http://issues.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=33698 ------- Additional Comments From [EMAIL PROTECTED] 2005-06-09 10:01 ------- Sorry, but I don't agree with this. Can you please provide a justification for this feature? I don't actually understand why support for handling int[] was ever added to StringArrayConverter at all, and can't currently see any reason to add more features. And if double[] support is added, then why not long[] and byte[] and char[]? Note that ConvertUtils has always supported string->object conversions but *not* object->string conversions. Providing proper support for object->string would be a significant change to the goals of BeanUtils and would have to be debated. Given that beanutils is both fragile and critical to the functioning of projects like struts and Digester, backwards compatibility is hard to achieve yet extremely important. This means that it is unlikely that a significant change/expansion of beanutils functionality would be agreed. Not to mention that beanutils has an extremely small maintainer base. Note that int[] support was added due to bugzilla #18297. I've read that entry, but still don't understand what the point of this was. -- Configure bugmail: http://issues.apache.org/bugzilla/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are the assignee for the bug, or are watching the assignee. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
