Chris McFarland created BEANUTILS-508: -----------------------------------------
Summary: BeanUtilsBean convertForCopy does not convert null values Key: BEANUTILS-508 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/BEANUTILS-508 Project: Commons BeanUtils Issue Type: Bug Components: Bean / Property Utils Affects Versions: 1.9.3, 1.9.2, 1.9.1, 1.9.0 Reporter: Chris McFarland BeanUtilsBean convertForCopy(value, type) only calls convert(value, type) for non-null 'value'. This is incorrect because null value handling should be left up to the Converter implementation. As stated in [AbstractConverter javadoc|http://commons.apache.org/proper/commons-beanutils/javadocs/v1.9.3/apidocs/org/apache/commons/beanutils/converters/AbstractConverter.html]: the AbstractConverter(Object defaultValue) constructor sets the "default value to be returned if the value to be converted is missing or an error occurs converting the value." -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v7.6.3#76005)
