BaseRequestItem.getTypedParameter() does not work with parameterized types
--------------------------------------------------------------------------

                 Key: SHINDIG-1495
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SHINDIG-1495
             Project: Shindig
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: Java
    Affects Versions: 2.0.2, 2.0.0, 2.0.0-RC2, 1.1-BETA5
            Reporter: Michael Young
             Fix For: 1.0.2, 2.0.3, 3.0.0


For example in AppDataHandler.create() there is code like this:

Map<String, String> values = request.getTypedParameter("data", Map.class);

Obviously there will be no way for the underlying BeanConvertor to know what 
the parameterized type is. 

One way I can see to solve this is to add a new method to the BeanConvertor 
interface:

public <T> T convertToObject(String json, Type type);

So that in AppDataHandler you can do something like:

Map<String, String> values = request.getTypedParameter("data", new 
TypeLiteral<Map<String, String>>);

If this is acceptable, I will start working on a patch.
